Kat Abughazaleh Gets Roughed Up By ICE!

If this how Americans are treated in protest, we are doomed. This is U.S. candidate Kat Abughazaleh being thrown to the ground by ICE.

I will not back any Democrat who supports Israel.

The far right is celebrating democracy collapsing before our eyes. A media personality and social influencer who is running for U.S. House was shoved to the ground by Immigration Customs Enforcement.

When this type of shit happens, you are witnessing the possibility of retaliation.

A civil war is happening. 

There will be a catalyst event that could destroy President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Republicans and Democrats. Trust me, it is going to be an event where mass causalities are eminent.

These mentally unstable and emotionally disturbed people get their fixes from social media, the dark web and their caffeninated opinion shows. All of this leads to them legally purchasing firearms and using them in unspeakable acts against one another.

Note....

• The shooter who killed Charlie Kirk.
• The shooter who killed three Pennsylvania deputies.
• The man who was caught raping a vulnerable person in Ohio.
• The man who threatened New York Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani.
• The shooter who killed children in a Catholic school in Minneapolis.
• The shooter who shot fellow students in Colorado.
• The shooter who tried to assassinate Donald J. Trump, then presumptive Republican nominee and former president.

It was white men. Yes, one was identified as a transgender woman.

What is wrong with our white men and boys?

These mass shooters and political extremists are not people of color. They are not Muslims. They are not immigrants. These people are radicalized by white grievances and opportunities to take advantage of vulnerabilities.

Protesters tried to block vehicles Friday outside a federal immigration enforcement building in suburban Chicago, leading to a confrontation with authorities who arrested multiple people and used a chemical agent to disperse the crowd.

The protest is part of steady pushback against an immigration enforcement surge focused on Chicago and surrounding communities, which has put more federal agents on the streets charged with delivering on President Donald Trump’s promise of mass deportations. The Department of Homeland Security said Friday that almost 550 people have been arrested as part of an operation that launched just under two weeks ago.

Friday’s protest included dozens of people carrying American flags and signs with the words “Hands off Chicago.” Some participants tried to block a car from exiting the facility’s yard and were met with federal officers who deployed chemical agents that released white clouds that drove the protesters back, according to videos taken outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Broadview, about 12 miles (19 kilometers) west of Chicago.

The Chicago chapter of the National Lawyers Guild, which provided legal observers for Friday’s protest, said at least 10 people were arrested by federal agents. They also reported that some people were injured and required hospitalization, according to Brad Thomson, an attorney with the guild.

“Our legal observers saw less-lethal force such as pepper balls and tear gas used indiscriminately against demonstrators, legal observers, and the media,” he said late Friday in an email to The Associated Press.

Earlier in the day, ICE Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin had said in a statement to the AP that three people were taken into custody.

The Broadview site is a two-story building that has been used to temporarily hold immigrants before they’re detained or deported. Its windows have been covered with wood boards for weeks. Protesters have regularly gathered there, including Catholic nuns who pray during vigils.

Kat Abughazaleh (known as Kat Abu) is a comedian, media critic, media personality and social media influencer. She is running to replace retiring Jan Schakowsky, longtime U.S. House member who announced retirement.

Friday’s protest drew advocates, residents and Democratic officials or politicians — several of whom were among the protest crowd affected by the officers’ response.

Kat Abughazaleh, a congressional candidate who has joined protesters on several days, told the AP that she was thrown on the ground by federal agents and hit with tear gas Friday as she stood arm-in-arm with others in front of a driveway, blocking a car.

Abughazaleh said officers dragged one of her friends away before others picked her up and threw her on the pavement. Abughazaleh said agents then used tear gas and pepper balls, causing her eyes to run and her throat to burn.

“Protesters were completely peaceful,” she said. “We had no weapons, just signs and songs. We were afraid and angry.”

ICE officials, meanwhile, described the protesters as “rioters” and accused them of assaulting law enforcement, slashing car tires and blocking the entrance of the facility.

Demonstrators gathered outside the building again on Friday evening. Video posted online showed protesters falling back when white smoke filled the air and officers in gas masks exited a gate.

McLaughlin said local police refused to answer multiple calls for assistance from federal law enforcement. The Broadview Police Department did not immediately respond to messages Friday.

Activists and local leaders lately have stepped up pushback to the surge of immigration agents in the Chicago area, aiming to deter agents, warn residents and keep attention on a man killed by an immigration officer last week.

Authorities said agents were pursuing a man with a history of reckless driving who had entered the country illegally. They said Silverio Villegas Gonzalez evaded arrest and dragged an officer with his vehicle. The government said the officer fired because he feared for his life.

“They want us to be afraid,” Illinois Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton, a Democrat, said in reference to the Trump administration. “They want us to just kind of go into our little corners and not do anything. ... We’re not going to let that happen.”

Kat has done numerous videos taking aim at President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Rupert Murdoch, Piers Morgan, Tucker Carlson, Jesse Watters, Laura Ingraham, Steve Bannon and Sean "Softball" Hannity. 

She is very good at her job.

Kat previously worked at Media Matters for America, Mother Jones and Zeteo. She is a part of the Meidas Touch network.

She is very vocal about the Democratic Party's leaders being out of touch with the progressive base. She is demanding lawmakers get touch and start listening to the voices that opposed them in 2024.

Progressives were turned off by former president Joe Biden’s stance on Israel.

It did damage to former vice president Kamala Harris and her bid for president.

Now as the Democrats watch Republicans spiral out of control, they see the wind in their sails. But hold up. The Democrats are extremely unpopular. They have no real policies other than allowing Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA), Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL), Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) make complete asses of themselves.

The supporters of former vice president Kamala Harris are playing on this "We tried to warn you" nonsense. How can you morally stand on principles of being a progressive and back Israel?

First and foremost, Americans have a right to vote for whomever they chose.

Second, Harris failed to win over voters. She stuck with former president Joe Biden on the economy, Israel, Ukraine, immigration and inflation. The former president failed to listen to voters and his base.

The former president gave unilateral support and cover. We knew Trump would be worse. We demanded that Biden put pressure on Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel to stop killing and invading other countries.

That shows the "tone deafness" within the party. 

It is not Rep. Rashida Tlaib's (D-MI) fault for Biden and Harris' missteps. She warned them that Arab Americans did not like being ignored. 

30% of Biden's 2020 base were disappointed with his stances on Israel.

Progessive influncers are practically on these platforms saying that they ain't helping the former Biden/Harris voters who voted for as Trump. 

That's perfectly fine. 

It makes them more independent and it declines support for Democratic candidates.

MAGAland going crazy and protests are growing.

As I explained, I voted for Harris for president. I told family members that Israel will be a major factor. Trump's near assassination was a big factor. His mugshot too.

Democrats waste too much time scaring voters. I get it. Trump is an essential threat to the country. 

It's that type of noise that keeps Democrats in the minority. 

Americans who backed Trump are seeing reality. He has already overplayed his hand and its only nine months.

Federal workers are being laid off or being forced to be in office. Media personalities Matthew Dowd, Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel and Karen Attiah were booted because of white nationalist Charlie Kirk's killing. People are being let go because of social media. The Trump Administration is planning on restricting federal aid to critics of his administration and Israel. 

This is unprecedented.

Transgender Americans are being banned from using restrooms or playing sports.

The U.S. is pulling out of the Paris Climate Accords, UN Human Rights, UNRWA and the World Health Organization. It puts us at risk for global pandemics, catastrophic weather events and potential boycotts of American products.

The economy is still the same.

Israel is still conducting its genocide.

Immigrants are being deported in a inhumane way.

Project 2025 and Greater Israel are very unpopular.

And the Kamala Harris supporters are trying to guilt trip people who didn't support her bid. I supported her bid and wished she won. Unfortunately, the stars weren't aligned. I was disappointed. I almost gave up.

But I started to realize that I want Trump and Israel to fail. And fail they shall.

For the next four years, we gonna see the Trump machine breakdown again.

And once again, y'all voted for this. 

Now once it starts affecting you, hopefully you don't resort to extreme measures to solve problems. Just vote and hope the candidates you support will actually work on behalf of the U.S., not lobbyists and Israel.
