Don't act like we saw a different video. ICE detained Comptroller Lander while he was conducting routine escorts at immigration court. Lander asked ICE for their warrant, as was well within his legal rights. We demand his immediate release from ICE custody.
New York City Comptroller Brad Lander was arrested for assaulting law enforcement and impeding a federal officer. Our heroic ICE law enforcement officers face a 413% increase in assaults against them—it is wrong that politicians seeking higher office undermine law enforcement.
