Several Democrats have either been arrested, detained or charged under the Trump administration due to the White House’s crackdown on illegal immigration.
Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chair Ken Martin has condemned their treatment, arguing lawmakers are being assaulted without reason.
“Elected officials are being arrested for doing their jobs,” Martin wrote in a Wednesday statement on social platform X.
“Once again, the Trump administration is silencing people who disagree with them in broad daylight.”
Here are Democrats who have been recently apprehended by law enforcement:
NYC Comptroller Brad Lander
Sen. Alex Padilla
Rep. LaMonica McIver
Judge Hannah Dugan
Newark Mayor Ras Baraka
Staffer for Rep. Jerry Nadler

These news stories are attempts to blunt and discredit the election briefing Trump will give the nation tomorrow, the libs are in full blown panic.
Weren’t they investigating illhan omar again? whatever happened with that.
I seem to recall that just sitting in Nancy Pelosis chair is enough to be arrested, detained and pretty much tortured without trial.
So when can we expect her in cuffs?
alex Padilla? They didn’t even know who he was when he got detained.
Yep...Plenty more to go get....
Wake me when the charge of Treason is filed. Until then, it’s only window dressing.
Get all of these scumbags.
One person rebuttal—Tina Peters.
AND they all deserved worse than what they got
They should list Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I understand he always voted Democrat, and I think he is now a public official in his native Maryland.
I, too, think treason charges should be forthcoming for certain people in the administration..........
Anyone have a list of J6 convicts?
Lincoln jailed 13 or 14 thousand democrats to “save the union.” There should be at least 140,000 democrats and enablers in jail right now to save the nation. The left is going after him no matter what he does or doesn’t do, Trump needs to step it up and do what has to be done.
List of Republicans who were arrested, detained or charged under Obama and Biden:
Donald Trump
Steve Bannon
Peter Navarro
Rudy Giuliani
Michael Flynn
Mark Meadows
John Eastman
John Eastman
Sidney Powell
Jenna Ellis
Tina Peters
Walt Nauta
Carlos De Oliveira
Thomas Barrack Jr
Jeffrey Clark,
Hundreds of J6 participants
et al
It’s only a drop in the bucket. When is Trump going to go after Hillary, or Adam Schiff? So far my only complaint about Trump’s performance as president is that he goes too easy on his enemies.
Good point
