The mayor of Newark, New Jersey is now playing the victim after being arrested and accused of trespassing inside an ICE detention facility. A couple of Democrat members of Congress were also there and again proving that their party's top priority is making sure criminal illegals aren't deported.
Actually, there were reportedly 3 Democrat representatives, there, trying to breech that facility's gates.
On MSNBC Baraka said his rights were violated:
Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) ~ 🚨 Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, now facing a federal trespassing charge, says he will confer with his lawyers on possible legal action — claims “they completely violated my rights."
“They obviously targeted me."

Hmmm ... let's stop and make an honest assessment, shall we?
* You, Mayor Baraka, show up at this ICE facility UNINVITED.
* You are told that you are NOT allowed into the facility - just as hundreds of millions of other Americans are properly NOT allowed to walk into the facility uninvited.
* When the gate opens to admit the transport of detainees, you rush the gate and illegally trespass into the facility's grounds.
* You are told that you are trespassing, told that you need to turn around and leave immediately, and you refuse to do so.
* You are correctly arrested for violating federal law.
YOU initiated and perpetuated this encounter, BUT you fantasize that you were "obviously targeted" by the federal agents that YOU forced yourself upon?! BWHA HA HA HA HA HA!!! You, Mayor Baraka, are a ridiculous moron.
So much for "no one is above the law." Apparently the Democrats think trespassing at a federal facility is one of their rights.
Meanwhile, Baraka's political director is getting ratioed to the moon for this attempted justification containing an admission:
Sam Blackwood (@SamMBlackwood) ~ Mayor @rasjbaraka was arrested while peacefully entering the illegal ice detention center #freethedisappeared #freeras #freethedisappeared #freeras
Sorry, bub ... there is absolutely nothing illegal about the existence of this ICE detention center ... well ... other than the presence of all the illegal felons inside. You know ... the foreign criminals that you want to support and aid to the detriment of American citizens.
Breaking the law is OK as long as it's done "peacefully"? And of course it depends on what your definition of "peaceful" is:
EducatëdHillbilly™ (@RobProvince) ~ "Peaceful"

"Mostly peaceful" but at least it wasn't also "fiery."
At least Baraka's office admitted it:
Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) ~ Wild to have your own political director admit you committed a crime.
A local official is not allowed in a federal facility like this without federal permission. The protections the members of Congress have do not extend to the local mayor.
Abigail Jackson (@abigailmarone) ~ Gonna be hilarious when your tweet is used as evidence to prove your boss committed a crime. You ... you just admitted it. 😂😂😂
John Hasson (@SonofHas) ~ “Hey guys, look! My boss broke the law!
EducatëdHillbilly™ (@RobProvince) ~ Some insurrections are okay, I guess.
It was "D"ifferent this time.
