As Warren wrote yesterday, NYC Comptroller Brad Lander has become the latest Democrat to stage an anti-ICE stunt. Lander got what he was after and was arrested and handcuffed, but he will now feel emboldened because the charges have been dropped. In other words, apparently some people are above the law.
The Democrats only intended "no one is above the law" to apply to Donald Trump, and all their lawfare backfired and now look who's back in the White House.
In any case, these Dems' drama queen meltdowns and attempts to obstruct justice are getting them the attention they were after. MSNBC will now be a revolving door for unhinged Democrats who have had run-ins with ICE:

"I will absolutely go back. I urge other people to do it as well. The organization I did it with is called Immigrant Arc."

"Lawless Democrats plan to keep trying to stop law enforcement from enforcing the law" should be the media headlines, but of course that won't be the angle taken.
Instead we're going to keep seeing stories like the making it sound like Trump's the "authoritarian" again:
Here is a list of Democrats who have been arrested, detained or charged under Trump https://t.co/lUyA74BOyA

The story lists five Democrats who now have a "raised profile" because of Trump. Breaking laws, obstructing justice and assaulting ICE officers is now acceptable, but just for this kind of behavior.
That list isn't nearly long enough. #justsayin

The Democrats are determined to make the list a lot longer, which is why I'd say this to ICE:
As usual, there's always a tweet:
No one is above the law.

Except Brad Lander, apparently. Along with Sen. Alex Padilla and the rest of them.
