It’s almost like the justice system has a “protest filter”: right-wing = patriot, left-wing = criminal.

The uneven application of law to silence political opposition. Stuff that we’re not supposed to have in America.
judgejuddhirsch on
I posted a lot in October saying the gop strategy isn’t to cancel elections, but to claim their opponents are thieves and traitors and pedophiles with no basis, legitimizing their claims only with their own sham indictments.
You betcha newsomes office will be raided in the middle of his campaign. When the dust settles, the AG will admit there was nothing after all, but they had to be sure.

MAGA is terrified of socialists. The only ideology that meaningfully opposes everything they are. Liberalism does not. Be a socialist, take back the future of the human race
Reject capitalism, or continue to let it ruin your life while you ignorantly blame something else

>physically hindered and impeded” a federal agent who was “forced to drive at an extremely slow rate of speed to avoid injuring any of the conspirators”
That is a laughable charge.

Good!
Getting arrested for Non-violent Direct Action Protesting is a time-honored American tradition, older than we are a country.

This only strengthens her case in IL. I hope people are noticing what’s really going on.

Well, if she wins election that means no consequences, right? That’s how it works here?

I’d rather vote for her than someone with 34 felony counts for fraud.

If the choice was between Kat, who has been leading protests against ICE despite being assaulted multiple times, and Bethany, who vomits on the walkways of her rivals then goes on a manic posting spree on Reddit…
Gee I wonder who people would pick? Sucks to suck, Bethany. Try running an actual campaign that’s people focused instead of desperately trying to play spoiler on behalf of MAGA.

She blocked a driveway. Technically illegal, but makes me want to vote for her harder.

More lawfare from the snowflakes. Should be easy to throw out, just costly. There are like 7 videos of agents body slamming her to the ground, crazy!

There are grand juries that are really voting to indict protestors? Boy we are fucked. When our own neighbors are doing it, you know it’s over.

Is the right trying to recruit her by making her a criminal? /s

I mean this is 100% trying to jail the opposition. People need to treat it that way.

America is this weird country where the people who pretend to celebrate murdering other people over some taxes every 4th of July are also really into indicting citizens over banging on cars and slowing them down. Not stopping them. Not flipping them over. Not burning them. Not puncturing tires. Banging on them aggressively and slowing them down.

That’s an obvious positive for her.

“Did you, within your rights, perform your civic duty to protest against fascism within the USA?”
-Yes, I’m guilty. What are we EVEN TALKING ABOUT.

Aside from how ridiculous this is, who is on the grand juries that are doing this and other terrible indictments? Even if prosecutors could indict a ham sandwich, this seems so far beyond the pale. I’ll always be astounded at how many stupid people there are in the world.

The sad part is folks are targeting her because she a strong candidate, if I’m correct in her state. I wouldn’t be surprised if republicans try to disappear folks that run against them.

Dangerous for free speech. Dangerous for democracy. But good for her campaign, she is going to get so much free press and so many donations over this.
“Your honor, we had to indict her! That ice agent had to drive really *REALLY* slow. Slower than the school zone they’re no longer allowed to drive through since they lost custody!”

Does this make her more qualified considering the president is a felon?

At this point, these assholes are trying to start a civil war. The entire DHS needs to have the book thrown at them J6 style with Jack Smith as the head after all of this is said and done

She has also been hit with a baton and tossed to the ground in two.seperate incidents on her YouTube.
Her partner is CEO of the company that now runs The Onion. I hope they don’t stay away from covering it.

Republican criminals using failed DOJ against Americans. These criminals in the government must be held criminally responsible !
Keyastis on
Ah, yes, turn your adversaries into political martyrs, cuz that will definitely make us all stop and not vote for them.
JD31116 on
We need to do something. I’m not sure what but this is getting out of hand. The videos of what ICE is doing is so awful. I cannot believe how many hate filled people are around me. Like are we never gonna evolve past this ignorance?

She’s got a name that you can’t pronounce; clearly she’s an Antifa plant trying to destroy America.

Shocking, a left leaning, minority woman politician of the other party is arrested. Can’t wait until we legislate the GOP out of existence.

Make her a martyr and she’ll never go away. Real smooth move, republicans.

I live in the 9th and will definitely be voting for Kat. I’m glad that this indictment is raising her profile.

Donald Trump is a criminal and a convicted Rapist.

I probably should have said that everything that led up to the Final Solution was legal, and at that point laws no longer mattered.
And we are in the 1933-1940 phase before they started the mass killings. And all that was “legal”.

Oh, so they’re scared of her. Good on you, Kat
Kat Abughazaleh is an excellent candidate.
