Unhinged Democrats have faced so little accountability in recent years that they now react to it like screeching toddlers.
In a clip posted Friday to the social media platform X, former journalist Kat Abughazaleh, a Democrat congressional candidate in Illinois’ 9th District, tried to physically impede an Immigration and Customs Enforcement vehicle, at which point an ICE agent forcibly removed Abughazaleh from the scene and tossed her to the ground several feet away.
The incident occurred during an anti-ICE demonstration outside ICE’s Broadview processing center in Chicago, per the Chicago Sun-Times.
According to reporter Ali Bradley of NewsNation, earlier Abughazaleh had sat on the ground blocking the processing center’s exit.

Meanwhile, on her own X account, Abughazaleh posted side-by-side clips of her own obstruction efforts.
Was this ICE agent justified in removing Kat Abughazaleh.
“This is what it looks like when ICE violates our First Amendment rights,” the confused, 26-year-old progressive wrote.

Fortunately, X users bombarded Abughazaleh’s account with correct interpretations of the First Amendment.
There is no 1A right to blocking traffic or obstructing law enforcement. Someone running for Congress ought to know this.

The first amendment right to…sit in the middle of the road and get tossed like a sack of potatoes for being a moron? This is a CNN contributor btw ladies and gentlemen, and apparently someone running for Congress.

Sitting in the road isn’t a first amendment issue. It’s a “you are stupid and evil” issue.

Nine days after the assassination of conservative icon Charlie Kirk, leftists have shown that they will not change their ways. They have chosen to double-, triple-, and quadruple-down on crazy.
In fact, even in the videos above one can hear demonstrators yelling “racist,” “fascist,” and “Nazi,” at the ICE agents.
Of course, watching Abughazaleh get tossed to the ground might provide some visceral satisfaction for some. But an arrest would have given us actual justice.
Let us hope that grandstanding Democrats will face that justice each time they attempt to physically obstruct ICE agents.
