…Hours after the confrontation involving the #Nadler staffers & #DHS police, around 6:30PM, police arrested nearly 2 dozen #demonstrators they allege blocked traffic outside the building, an #NYPD spox said.

In the #demonstration, mutual #aid volunteers assisting #immigrants tried to block #ICE vans transporting detained immigrants from leaving the building, acc/to organizers. 18 protesters were issued criminal summons, & 5 people were arrested & charged, the NYPD spox said.

Rep #RobMenendez said #ICE agents learned Mayor #Baraka was outside the facility. Menendez said the agents “were on the phone with somebody” who told them to let the Mayor in, then escort him back out beyond the facility gates. The agents did exactly that. Once beyond the gates they arrested him.

That is insane.
