Federal charges filed against Dem congresswoman following confrontation at ICE facility

Just so I understand what I read; the gate to the facility opens to allow a bus through, these folks rush the gate to gain unlawful access, they're arrested just like any other citizen would be, and they're pulling the victim card. 

Having a position of authority doesn't mean anything if/when you're acting outside of your purview or breaking the law. Anyone just showing up to any facility has to go through a checklist to gain entry. Anyone gaining unlawful entry are going to be arrested. It's pretty simple. 

I commend the acting Attorney General for following the parameters of the law which is what should always happen.
