Fmr. Obama ICE Director: Lander Engaged in ‘Publicity Stunt’, Doesn’t Have Right to ‘Impede Federal Agents’
Snippet of Article: "New York City Comptroller and mayoral candidate Brad Lander...It’s a publicity stunt from a guy running for mayor. Look, I think there are reasons to question this ICE tactic of arresting people who are going to immigration court. I don’t think you’re promoting public safety by doing it. These are people already in the system. It’s just a way to rack up some quick arrest numbers. But that doesn’t give you a right to go impede federal agents who are making an arrest. They don’t need a judicial warrant to make an arrest in a public space like the immigration courthouse. At the end of the day, this was just a publicity stunt.”..."
