This Senator Padilla all over again or the congressperson from jersey.  This is unknowns seeking to make a name for themselves pretending to stand up for something so they can get attention as martyrs for the cause. Its cheap theatre.  

These guys are either gullible rubes or purposely ignoring this.  How can anyone not see right through that?  Clearly an attempt to raise his profile.  

[nobody 2,642]

And aren't comptrollers like treasurers or some shìt?  Why would this dude even be involved in the situation?

He also has ties to the Mexican cartels and he is probably trying to deflect from that.

It may be that deportation is a moral wrong though it is legally justified.  If it is a moral wrong then that point can be made and will resonate without the cheap theatrics seeking to in some cases interfere with the legitimate speech rights of others and in other cases to obstruct law enforcement.  If there is enough gravitas to break the law in civil disobedience then own that, don't try to claim that there was not civil disobedience, that the unlawful was somehow not unlawful.  Own the actions proudly.  That would place one in the ranks, though lesser, of Gandi and King, righteous company to be among I would say.

obama with his racial division, and biden with his open borders has given the Republican Party the claim to the presidency for years to come. All they need to do is put normals in place to run the next decade. Trump wasn't exactly straight laced, but he was and is needed at this time of total liberal anarchy. 

Someone with guts has to keep them from destroying this nation any further. Trump 2028 for VP!! Go Vance!!

Asking is justified and non-objectionable.  DEMADING while physically embracing the wanted person so as to prohibit them from being secured into custody is not.  Even his attorney, if he had one, would not have been allowed to do what this Comptroller did.  This was an officious intermeddler obstructing justice, nothing more, other than he could also be called a media strumpet seeking a viral moment to feed the ignorant who do not understand the law so he can have a campaign issue, a manufactured one. 

So asking is justified?   Wouldn’t it likely be true then that if they provided it to him when asked that there would have been no viral moment?  I’ll defer to your legal expertise if you think there was legitimate grounds to detain him, but I’m not convinced he was only seeking a viral moment

And Biden didn't have dementia, and three weeks to flatten the curve, won't get covid if you get the jab, etc. 

This is one of those moments when you should just let people with common sense take over.  The wokie perspective is heard and noted.

Not necessarily. If his end end goal was to seek publicity, he very well may have refused to accept the validity of the paperwork.

It was the first time agents interferred with his escorting immigrants out of the court room who were there for a hearing.

He was just on MSNBC and said the other times there was no incident as he escorted these immigrants out of the court house.

So his job is to escort immigrants out of the court house? Locked arms? It’s odd to me then that he didn’t know how to respond when agents show up to arrest someone that he’s escorting. Hopefully he learned his lesson.

No, he has never said that. 

[Gladiators 1,979]

I just read an article on CNN about the incident. I’m now 100% convinced it was a publicity stunt.

“Lander, who is running in a crowded Democratic mayoral primary set to take place next week, had been monitoring immigration court activity in the past few days, walking alongside migrants as they exited their court appointments in response to reports that the migrants were being taken into custody by federal agents following court appearances.”

He escorted 4 families out previously.

Note - squistion said Lander had been doing this for weeks. Is CNN wrong or squistion? If he only escorted 4 families, it certainly makes sense that it was just over the last few days.

This video is from June 5, 12 days ago (AKA nearly 2 weeks)

 

[TimHauck 2,716]

@Engorgeous George, based on the available video do you think Lander committed assault as the DHS x account has now claimed (edit: despite there being no actual charges) ?

12 days isn’t weeks. So, squistion appears to be wrong.

He escorted 4 families. Again, squistion saying he’s been doing this for weeks would seem to imply he’s done this far more than 4 times.

Why was he recording it? I’d venture to guess for publicity. And I think he just got exactly what he was looking for.

It wasn't the first time. He has done this for several weeks.

It’s more than 1 week.  He wanted publicity to show he was standing up for due process. I don’t think he wanted to be arrested.  Edit: And yes @BrahmaBulls, he was arrested, according to DHS

He’s actually done it for parts of 3 different weeks.

Previous video was 6/5 (week of 6/2)

 

Here is a post from him doing it on 6/12 (week of 6/9):

This doesn’t seem conclusive. I don’t believe you researched this before quoting squistion’s post as factual.

When I wrote earlier that I was troubled by what the comptroller had done it was based on a description that was offered here. When I watched the video I changed my mind. No law enforcement was impeded, this wasn’t a stunt, Lauder did nothing wrong. 
 

I shouldn’t ever believe what is posted here by the MAGA crowd. It’s almost always bullsh!t

I get it though. You don’t  want to believe this guy could have possibly been doing this with the hopes of an interaction with agents that would ultimately lead to massive publicity.

This is what I see when click your X link.

Earlier today, I accompanied immigrant families outside immigration court. Facing expedited removal, many of them expected to be arrested by ICE outside. I stand up to bullies—and I won't back down from a fight. When I'm Mayor, I will fight like hell for immigrant New Yorkers.

Weren’t you asking about the video from 6/5?  I already posted that one.

My bad.  I thought you were providing another video showing that he had been doing it for weeks.  6/5 was the earliest you could find of him doing this.  Glad we're still in agreement that he hadn't been doing it for weeks.

You know what, I need to admit I was wrong.  Earlier I said it had been 12 days since he started doing it.  It actually had been 13.

So if you want to argue that 13 days isn’t 2 weeks, go right ahead.  But I’ll laugh at you.

That's fine.  For a guy who spends most of his day arguing every minute detail, I will sit back and know that I was right and you were wrong.  I won't laugh though.

Did you ever admit to Meglamaniac that you were wrong about this?  If you still think you're right, you should probably explain to Engorgeous George why he was also wrong.
