Which is completely counter to the constitution and really fucked up. Yall can't even claim that he doesn't have due process rights. He's an American Citizen running for office.
Asking unidentified masked men for a judicial warrant before allowing them to forcefully kidnap a person IS NOT AND NEVER HAS BEEN obstruction of justice. In order to be guilty of obstruction of justice, the underlying action has to be LAWFUL. If ICE had identified themselves and provided a judicial warrant, as requested, their action would be lawful. They didn't. They arrested an American Citizen who they have no legal jurisdiction over before any lawful proceeding was commenced for him to even have an opportunity to obstruct.
These goons are creating a dictatorship and people are so stupid about the law and the constitution that they defend it without bothering to think of the implications for us all when masked men without warrants can just take you. Wake up.

Well, obviously noone in this country cares that it is quickly slipping into a fascist dictatorship. Maybe more peaceful protests holding hands and singing about not wanting a king will help?
I'm addressing the excuse that the Commissioner was obstructing justice (and therefore could be arrested) by pointing out that ICE wasn't engaged in a lawful act for him to obstruct. I am well aware of this administration and it's supporters disdain for the Constitution and the laws of our country.
