every time. I have no doubt he thinks they're still eating the pets in Ohio.

Sydney Reid was filming ICE in DC when she was arrested and charged with felony assault -- she was no-billed by the DC grand jury
DOJ refiled misdemeanor charges, which she was acquitted of today.
Filming public servants in public as they do their work isn't violence, it isn't even a crime
Regular juries nope-ing out on DOJ
Pirro continues to waste the credibility of the government.

Military style sweep in Lower Manhattan
Trump’s jackboots spoiling for a confrontation with the public, it seems

ICE menaces public officials
https://chicago.suntimes.com/immigra...in-albany-parkFederal agents pointed a gun at state Rep. Hoan Huynh in Albany Park on Tuesday afternoon after blocking his vehicle in and holding phones up to the windows, according to a statement from his office.
“My staff is a little shaken up, but we’re OK,” Huynh told the Sun-Times.
Huynh had been informing local businesses of their rights regarding the use of their property by federal agents when he and his staffers were alerted to the presence of federal agents nearby, the statement said. He and the staffers drove to Montrose and Kimball avenues to warn others of the federal agents by honking and yelling when six agents in two vehicles blocked Huynh’s vehicle from the front and back.
Huynh said one of the agents pointed a weapon into the open passenger window and demanded they identify themselves as another agent threatened to break another window. He said he didn’t immediately take his phone out to record the incident fearing the agent would think he was reaching for a weapon and open fire.
In video taken by one of Huynh’s staffers that was shared with the Sun-Times, Huynh can be heard identifying himself and noting the agent had been pointing a weapon as several masked agents in tactical gear move away from Huynh’s car as the camera turns to capture them. An agent circles Huynh’s car, filming the occupants inside. When the lead car of agents, a charcoal gray Kia minivan, moves, Huynh’s staffer follows it north on Kimball Avenue and west onto Montrose Avenue before the video ends.
“I never would have imagined in 2025, we would be living in an authoritarian regime in the United States,” Huynh said. “Once my colleague pulled out his camera, the agent put away the gun. ... [But] if they can do this in broad daylight to an elected official, and point a gun at someone, imagine what’s happening behind closed doors.”

DHS goons keep arresting local officials -- administrative detention of Americans is much more common under Trump
https://news.wttw.com/2025/10/22/bor...lage-raids-aldU.S. Customs and Border Protection agents detained two city employees during an aggressive raid in Little Village, Ald. Mike Rodriguez (22nd Ward) said.
At least seven people were detained by agents during the mid-morning raid, including Jacqueline Lopez and Elianne Bahena, Rodriguez’s chief of staff, who is an elected member of the Ogden (10th) District Police Council. Both are U.S. citizens, Rodriguez said.
“These federal agents are operating lawlessly, demonstrating utter disregard for our cons utional rights,” Rodriguez said.
A spokesperson for the Border Patrol did not immediately respond to a request for comment from WTTW News.
Rodriguez demanded the immediate release of his ward office’s employees.
“All residents have the right to peacefully observe ICE/CBP activity,” Rodriguez said, using the acronyms for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency and U.S. Customs and Border Protection. “The federal government continues to claim that those who exercise their rights are breaking the law — these claims have been repeatedly proven as false.”

no charges, huh?
what were they arrested for?
https://abcnews.go.com/US/nyc-reside...y?id=126763379Four U.S. citizens were arrested and held for "nearly 24 hours" without any federal charges following a joint Immigration and Customs Enforcement crackdown in New York City's Chinatown neighborhood on Tuesday, according to Democratic Congressman Dan Goldman, who called the actions "lawless terror."
"ICE is not allowed to arrest American citizens," Goldman, accompanied by Murah Awawdeh, president and CEO of the New York Immigration Coalition, said during a press conference on Wednesday.

That’s really the whole point of the First Amendment,” said Michael Perloff, senior staff attorney at ACLU-D.C.
