The mayor of New Jersey’s largest city and a Democratic candidate for governor was handcuffed and detained by federal officials at a protest of an ICE facility. It followed a scrum involving three members of Congress seeking a tour of the facility.
Replies
Sounds like they choreographed a dramatic scene so those members of Congress would not get to tour this facility.

If you are a Democrat, you are not above the law. If you are a maga, there are no laws!

And if trump can't be sentenced or tried because he won his election, same should apply to Baraka.

Pictures need to be taken of these ICE gestapo guys. Faces, badges, any identifying item. They are ruining people's lives. No violence directed at them, but they need to be known. This is very personal for their victims; it needs to be personal for them as well.

A bridge to far USA? When did we turn into having people like Saddam Hussein running things? "Saddam Hussein (and his type of ICE) is most famously known for his long-standing rule brutal repression and human rights abuses. The trump adm and his doge offense is behaving just like this in America.😧🤯

I am sure that that parking lot has 1000 video cameras on it. FOIA those videos, to see who really did what when.

Masked ICE agents hauling off an elected official for peacefully expressing a dissenting view. This is no longer the land of the free, this is fascism, pure and simple. bsky.app/profile/marc...

In a free, non toxic society, where people live free, no law enforcement officer needs to cover their faces. In drug infested, gang controlled or authoritarian societies, where law enforcement officers are not respected, the law has to hide as normal people know them as oppressors. USA is not free.

Thanks Mayor Baraka for standing up for what you believe. And thanks Columbia University students for risking your education to call for the end of the war in Gaza. Tomorrow night MSNBC is showing a David Frost Interview with Jane Fonda, anti-Viet Nam war activist. She is still relevant!!

The interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey, Alina Habba, confirmed that Baraka was detained. …she wrote on X. “He has willingly chosen to disregard the law. That will not stand in this state. He has been taken into custody. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.” except the convicted felon-in-chief

Stephen Miller just said the quiet part out loud: the Trump administration is considering suspending habeas corpus—the right to challenge your detention. It’s real, it’s happening, and history shows where this leads. This is how democracies collapse. jasonegenberg.substack.com/p/stephen-mi...

Here are, thanks to protest attendees, three different angles and moments captured in this post, including the congresswoman being shoved by ICE.

I can’t shake the feeling that writer & director, #AlexGarland is horrified that his 2024 film ‘Civil War’ presaged much of this. This second Trump/ Heritage Foundation presidency is making its own live-streamed, violent, unfettered, ham-fisted way into perdition. At what cost? #USpol #PoliSky
