“We [Democracy Now] speak with Minneapolis resident Aliya Rahman, who attended Tuesday’s State of the Union address as a guest of Congressmember Ilhan Omar. Rahman was removed from the chamber Tuesday and spent several hours in jail following what she describes as an aggressive arrest by Capitol Police — all for silently challenging Trump during the speech.

“”There are only two things you can do at the State of the Union, and they are sit down and stand up,” says Rahman. “I was arrested for standing up.”

“Rahman, a U.S. citizen, was violently dragged out of her car and detained by federal immigration officers last month and later released without charge.”

That's a pretty charitable way to describe them

Assholes are pretty great, I love a good buttfucking. I resent you comparing fascist garbage to assholes.

Arrested for standing out of line.

Dear leader cannot be criticized. Dissenting voices were also muted from becoming audible while he was speaking.

Assholes are both functional and provide pleasure for their owners and friends of their owners. Can’t say that about any Republican

o7

Sounds like she has some good lawsuits

Most likely because she wasn't white.

Makes them look weak, not strong.

Watching that nonsense last night, it seems you were supposed to stand up and clap after orange man spewed 5 sentences.

Aliya Rahman was ripped out of her car by ice while trying to make it to a Dr. Appointment.

Capitol police prefer Jan 6 rioters killing them rather than a single human standing.

Didn't know the capital hired lazy and disheveled mall cops for congressional security.

Those guys don't look like they own a suit.

Holy fuck those dudes are fat

doxx them and hunt them down.

"Land of the free. Home of the brave etc etc"
Well I'm seeing two or three people being brave, but that's it. And almost no freedom.

Edit: it should be.
"Land of the paedo. Home of the dictators."

Her testimony in congress was chilling as hell. highly recommend watching it

They also beat her to the point that she can no longer raise her hands

I don't own a suit.

What's your point, you classist jerk?

We can call it Operation Starfish!

We're past racial profiling

you don't have an emergency suit? haven't you watched my cousin vinny?

TRUMP SHOULD BE ARRESTED

For starters...
