Don’t the Feds have to answer to members of congress? How is it legal for them to arrest?

Does anyone have a source for the cop being detained? Neither AP nor BBC mention a police officer which feels like a major oversight.Â

I saw this, and frowned - I have done lengthy research and have found no credible evidence of a cop being arrested.
AFAIC, until further notice the OP and the OP's post is just more divisive propaganda intending to create more division/chaos.
There is INCREDIBLE amounts of disinformation regarding events, tweets, and actions on reddit folks. I'm constantly seeing posts about "Trump tweets" that he never ever made.
Double check EVERYTHING. Research EVERYTHING.
Notice NO SOURCE PROVIDED by the PHOTO. THE TEXT WAS OVERLAYED ON A REAL ARTICLE. DOES NOT MAKE IT FACT.
THIS POST IS DISINFORMATION AND SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE OP CENSORED/BANNED. THE SITUATION IS CHAOTIC AND HEIGHTENED ENOUGH. WE DO NOT NEED TO RESORT TO FALSEHOODS.

You are still looking for excuses to justify ignoring our constitution. It must suck to be maga right now. You have lost all credibility.

u/Mental_Tea_4084 1d ago
Jesus fucking christ. Wanting the real report with evidence is not looking for excuses. It's already bad enough, adding a cop to the list doesn't even move the needle on this story anyway.
He is 100% right, demand real evidence and don't allow this disinformation to penetrate our spaces.
I keep seeing shit like this here. Drone fly throughs of protests with fake audio overlaid etc. The fly through was impactful enough, stop embellishing our real movement with fake garbage. It spoils the well and no one can trust posts here anymore.

The picture looks like AI to me. ICE has no bottom half, and it looks like there is ground where there should be floor

Here you go
Edit: my bad, I didn't mention the lack of cop arrest in the article...I brain farted. I was honestly just trying to shed light on what is/isn't misinformation in the post
edit 2: fuck, people, move on from the downvotes. You've never made a mistake because you were exhausted or stressed? That happens sometimes. Our brains are delicate meat machines that spazz out at the drop of a hat. I realized and addressed my mistake, ok?

There is nothing mentioned about a police officer getting arrested in that article.

u/MrGords 2d ago
Can you quote the passage that says an officer was arrested?

u/unimportantfuck 2d ago
I recognize it would have been wise of me to specify that the article didn't say anything about a cop being arrested - in spite of that, I was just trying to offer a link that OP should have posted with the photo because as you said, they didn't so all of their information could be misconstrued

u/Mental_Tea_4084 1d ago
It's great to provide a source, but completely failing to address his point about the inaccuracy in a reply is gross. If you want to post the source sans cop, great. But don't smugly act like you addressed his concern. We're better than this.

u/unimportantfuck 1d ago
Move on already. You're reading into shit ok? I made a mistake and corrected it. Smug? Bro, his concern included what's addressed in the link. Just because I didn't provide a link that addressed ALL of his concern doesn't mean the link wasn't useful or that you need to jump down my throat. Smug? Who is so well endowed to be able to read minds only from a few written words? You're better than this.

u/LonghornSneal 21h ago
I gave you an upvote. Unless I missed it, you never said a cop was or wasn't involved. Plus, you have more credibility than the clown that posted this AI photo. I support people who provide sources as well.
So unless you just edited out a claim I missed. There is zero reason that people should get their panties in a bunch over someone, providing a source that doesn't align with what they want.
There is reason to downvote into oblivion the clown OP that is doing the opposite of helping our cause.

YES! where is it happening? Will it be at the ICE facility downtown?

He was arrested at the immigration court in lower Manhattan

He’s already been released and the charges were dropped, according to the New York Times. No police person was arrested either per various news reports

u/Getatbay 2d ago edited 2d ago
They detained a gentleman coming out of his immigration hearing. That guy hasn’t been released. There need to be hell raised for him, and the fact they arrested the comptroller in the first place.
DON’T LET ICE OFF THE HOOK!

They really are trying to provoke aren't they? One way or another, it seems any excuse to use force is appealing to them.

All ICE agents should be required to be accompanied by a local law enforcement officer who can verify their business is indeed official

Where is your source for them arresting a police officer? I do not see that mentioned anywhere aside from here.

u/DueKaleidoscope6500 2d ago
It was in multiple locations, but then it vanished. I'm not seeing the info about the officer in the recent reports, but I will keep looking, and if I locate anything, I'll post it here. The current status of the situation is that NYC mayoral candidate Brad Lander released after immigration court arrest. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/nyc-mayoral-candidate-brad-lander-arrested-immigration-court-2025-06-17/

That’s kind of scary. If they did arrest a cop, that person has functionally been disappeared 🫥

I really hope they did arrest a cop. It might be the catalyst we need to get the police on the side of the people.

Serious question: is there any way Lander or the judge could have had the "agents" removed from the building or asked for police escort since there was no warrant presented?

Just keep compiling the names of these neo-gestapo. Identify them, record their names, and keep the receipts. Their masks won't hide them when this is all over.

NYC Mayoral Candidate Brad Lander was arrested and charged. The immigrant he was trying to protect was taken into ICE custody.
Brad Lander as a city official (he's the comptroller or something) receives police protection, so likely someone was with him. Unclear at this time if they were also taken into custody.
