The Mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka, committed trespass and ignored multiple warnings from Homeland Security Investigations to remove himself from the ICE detention center in Newark, New Jersey this afternoon. He has willingly chosen to disregard the law. That will not stand in this state. He has been taken into custody. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.
Contrast this with the case against Letitia James. In that one, the taint of political retribution and appearance of partisanship should be enough to say its in our better civic interests to let her get away even if she did defraud whatever. As hypocritical as it is for her to charge Trump with a phony crime while she did the real thing, its hypocritical for him to let his DoJ prosecute her.
But if a democrat is going to physically interfere with law enforcement or otherwise make a direct attack on the government- fuck'em, lock'em up and make an example of them. There's no narrative of political persecution if you choose to go on a crusade
