Senator Andy Kim pepper-sprayed by ICE outside Delaney Hall

paradigm317.bsky.social203

DO NOT come for Andy Kim We won’t have it in NJ.

Morganne MacDonald171

Start charging them with state crimes. Prosecute all criminal behavior. If found guilty incarcerate them in the area in which they committed their crimes.

Kat Denise117

We can not normalize this! This is criminal.

Shark75

Cynically, I think that ICE brutalizing sitting US Senators might actually be a good thing long term? Like, the violence is horrifying and all, but the Senate is notorious for being deeply insulated and reactive. This might actually force the Senate to reconcile with reality and act upon it.

Fight for right52

That agent is going to have ONE HELLUVA lawsuit against him from Kim!...maybe the DOJ too!

Michael Darweesh50

Neither of my senators (NY) have the courge to put themselves out there like this. Thank you Senator Kim.

Assaulting an elected federal official is a very serious crime!!

Sean of the reginos26

What is going on in your country? We are concerned for you.

Deb ❌👑26

Shameful. He stands up for what's right every time. I will always remember this photo when he was on his knees for hours cleaning up some of the mess the insurrectionists made in the Capitol on January 6th.

Bonnie-stand strong for democracy!21

Of all the senators… omg

elijahplovejoy.bsky.social16

This violates at least two New Jersey criminal statutes.

paradigm317.bsky.social16

Why don’t these politicians roll up w full battalion of state troopers

Detective James Carter14

ICE has to go, already. No more immigration control.

Just Darling14

Vicious, fascist fuckers. Senator Kim is such an outstanding leader. Millions of us in NJ love him!

Kat K 🐾🐾13

Trump’s Gestapo needs to go to prison.

oldcc.bsky.social12

My God Senator Andy Kim is a good person He stayed at the Capitol after the Jan 6 insurrection and helped clean up the mess He doesn't deserve to be gassed by ICE

Galic11

And there will be no repercussions. The governor should order the national guard to open the gates and arrest every ice agent as they leave. But they won’t.

CLE9

Defund ICE!!!!! Trump’s Nazi military of criminals & insurrectionists!!!!! Soon to be rich folk & well paid off by the Jan 6 slush fund of American tax dollars😡🤯

Scarheart Thrymson8

Minnesota's got the right of it: if ICE refuses to leave your state, then the next step is no longer allow them to leave.

czech-queen.bsky.social8

Assault and battery on a sitting U.S. Senator

Cookie Vargas8

Time for A LAW SUIT. A BIG FUCKING LAWSUIT

Frank7

Senators need to start bringing local police escorts to their unannounced visits and protests

Michael Low7

Civil suit should be filed if possible:

elizmadsen.bsky.social7

Abolish ICE. Until that happens, none of us are safe or free.

The Art Of Hobbes Prime6

I hope he sues them.

brendanamartin.bsky.social6

Bravo to Kim, but good. We need radicalized elected officials. Only radicals will eradicate this.

Susan Kramer Esq.6

NO!! Mr. Kim does not deserve that. Someone needs to pay for that.

BDE - Big Donkey Energy6

No trump. No kkk. No fasicst USA. Think of your vote as a restraining order. Do Not Sit This One Out! Are you registered to vote (at your current address)? Sure about that? When is the last time you checked? R's like tampering with voter rolls and purging voters. vote.org << check or register

joannkennedy.bsky.social5

The governor is there too Trying to get access

p5

...And the NJ Governor was on site and denied access.

roy62.bsky.social5

When are you people gonna wake up and realize that these people are at war with you? Governor do something!

Betty Perry-Fingal4

Tear gas is a chemical weapon that should be banned. It is the weapon of choice by law enforcement against peaceful protests.

New Deal Respecter4

Is this that "drawdown" I keep hearing about

Doc Zombie - ANTIFA Psychiatry4

Elected officials with a right to be there keep getting assaulted. They need an armed guard. The regime will require physical interventions.

Margi in WA still upset 20244

Our 1st Amendment guarantees use the right to protest. This attack by ICE reminds me of the attack at Lafayette Square in DC 2020.

David's Jazz4

Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin: "ICE just tear gassed Senator Andy Kim." MAGA claim the mantle of Christ, but what would Jesus do? What would Hitler do? Adolf had similar detention centers.

mtsea.bsky.social4

Andy Kim is one of the most decent people on the face of the earth. #FuckIce

Merritt kelly3

WTF? Why? What possible excuse is there for it?

springtomind.bsky.social3

ICE needs to be off the streets

Marie-Helene3

Governors have got to start fighting.

JFC. I really hate these ICE assholes.

Nothing matters other than regime change. Vote democrat down the line.

befriended.bsky.social2

ICE is still out of control- how is that?

Zookie 🍁 🪉kindness costs nothing2

I think he should sue. That’s the American way.

Caroline Fan2

I suspect they will come to discover that this was a tactical mistake. Not that they didn't intend to, but the backlash.

Sy Oppington, fellow poster2

...as the founders intended! 🧐

The Almighty Tallest2

You fools, all you have done is unlocked his next form

jim0novak.bsky.social2

Imagine if Joe Biden had tear gassed Senator Joe Manchin. 🤔

coastally13372

Fun fact: Andy Kim crossed party lines and confirmed Noem. This is peak “started/going” fodder.

@cujos_mom57

So ICE ASSAULTED a sitting Senator, they need to be arrested and charged.

Michael D31

Abolish ICE, and put every one of them in prison.

freelib.bsky.social28

Kim gets points for actually being there rather than just speaking from safety!

Maire Athena22

They need to be dismantled there is no reforming this.

lady-dem.bsky.social20

We need to get rid of ICE, Trump and every Republican in Congress‼️

💙Joani in the sky with cubic zirconia 💙19

That’s OUTRAGEOUS! All laws are being violated by this corrupt regime! 🤬

Sparksflying15

Fuck ICE, Fuck Trump, Fuck GOP enablers.

jeanrhode.bsky.social14

ICE is a bunch of loser thugs who need to be stop. And f--k them for hurting one of the best senators we have

CLE12

Something needs to be done NOW. This is assault by autocratic government.

Joanne💋💙10

Outrageous terrorists is what they truly are. 😤😤

Japancy9

The cruelty is the point.

David9

Isn’t illegal to pepper spray a crowd of peaceful protesters? cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/05/memo...

Zombiekat8

I want every last one of them behind bars getting the same treatment they are giving immigrants now

ICE deserves no budgeted funds at all. Let them eat cake.

kevezc.bsky.social8

These ice thugs need to be doxxed. So we can alert everyone around them about the horrible things they are doing. Can this happen? They need to answer for their crimes.

Hold My Beer ❌👑🐸🇲🇽🇨🇦6

oh good god do NOT put water on it, people!!!! makes it way worse!!!!!

JosephWelchVI6

My career as a NYPD Detective confirms only outlaws wear masks. All of these ICE cocksuckers will be held to account in the future. They’ll never get away. I’m volunteering to work pro bono as an expert witness for their prosecutions. Hit me up Mr. D.A. #FuckICE #BitchAssPunks

democracy4u.bsky.social6

mob boss Trump has private gestapo

Tooey6

NJ MAGA is cheering this on. 😡 “FAFO!” “He shouldn’t have interfered!” “It’s staged!”

Lori 🇺🇦💩🐸👑5

Well I hope that ICE agent has been arrested for assault.

Brenda, NO KINGS 👑 🇺🇸 🇺🇦 🇨🇦 🇬🇱 🐸🐸5

These Ice holes need to be arrested and put in jail.

Texting Menace5

They won't let the Governor in either

glenmorangi5

Hope He sues them into oblivion. Start with assaulting a senator.

carpenter22.bsky.social4

Is this an assault on a seated congressman?

stixandstones50.bsky.social4

Isn’t there SOMETHING that can be done for attacking a government official???

Mummer4

Oh no. Love Sen. Kim. He's a helper and a 'good one'.

Doreen4

@kim.senate.gov I am so sorry the Nazi ICE offers did this to you! Not one penny should go to fund this rogue agency.

Hank4

It is an outrage in the United States of America that some low-life ICE goon can pepper spray a Senator and innocent protesters and get away with it. It was an assault, cut and dry.

MikeCalimari4

What the SCROTUS* has done to the Fourth, Fifth, and Fourteenth Amendments the next Liberal majority court should do to the Second. *Supreme Court Republicans Of The United States.

I Care4

Nothing has changed people with these thugs.

That's assault!!! Those fuckheads need to be in prison, ALL OF THEM!!! #abolishICE

@crow.house.gov @bennet.senate.gov @hickenlooper.senate.gov This shit okay with you? Not another flipping cent.

Linda HLH3

Most of all we will hold every single Republican accountable because they could end this today they are violating their oath to the Constitution they are supporting lawlessness and cruelty the Republican regime is the corrupt cruel monster behind this never GOP again never ever again never ever

Bestie3

Sue their fat out of shape asses!

❌👑 Citizen VBates2

Look at the little boy behind him. I wonder what his sign says? What a sad state for our children.

Margueriteathome2

How dare they attack a sitting senator. Close Delaney Hall down. Get ICE out of NJ.

FunnyFeminist2

A sitting senator shouldn’t be protesting outside an immigration detention center. He should be immediately allowed inside to see what’s happening in there.

SILENCE IS NOT GOLDEN2

Make this illegal!!! The Governor can do it. Start arresting the Iceholes for assault.

📎The Ghost Army of Fellas!2

There is no reason for them to exist.

kathleencf.bsky.social2

Sue them for Civil Rights violations!

Carol Hoernlein2

And FIFA folks wonder why the hotels here are not filled for the World Cup just a few weeks and a few miles away from this nightmare ICE facility in Newark.

Sunshine2

Ban those f’ers out of New Jersey!!

Ben There 22

Liberals have no intention of overthrowing fascism, they are only want a to return to the good old days of light blue fascism.

oftosa2

Abolish ICE, now more than ever!

Delbert Grady Seasons3

One way I think Steyer is preferable to Becerra in CA is that Steyer clearly makes Abolish ICE his position (including ways the Governor can fight it) while Becerra talks about “stopping ICE overreach” as a way of fighting Trump, without providing details. Like what part of ICE reach is OK

thenicklogan.bsky.social15

The governor should have a few dump trucks with V-plows attached show up at the front gates accompanied by state troopers. That's where this is headed eventually anyway. I saw the phrase "slow civil war" today. More like incremental autocracy.

Dana Knows Insanity When She Sees It. 🥊🐸9

Omg so the selfless democrat Andy Kim, who stayed all night to clean up, after rioters stormed our Capitol, was pepper sprayed ffs! #StopTheInsanity #VoteBlue www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-a...

Sam Porter Bridges6

So we can just assault senators now? Well, I hope the GOP is ready to feel the hurt, what with that being true equality and all.

thorn2019.bsky.social6

🧊 probably thought of senator Kim as "another immigrant" 😡

John Scott G4

Get rid of GOP, ICE, and 6 of SCOTUS. (In other words: remove the filth infesting government and society.) It can happen one way (courts, ballots, Dems finding a spine) or the other way (messy) but it must be done.

tvidaurri.bsky.social3

ICE sees it as...."He probably won't be at the next protest. Trump will pardon us. It's ok."

6th Face3

Take the fire marshal and local pigs and kick the god damb doors in. What the actual fuck are we doung here.

Vanessa Chaland2

Pepper spray them back. It's called self defense.

Fred 🇦🇺2

Can the ICE agents just go and F off already. 2nd amendment that you all so love seems to be forgotten when it is time to use it.

chrispa9573.bsky.social2

No better glow up than Mendenez to Kim

angrygrrrl and Fucking Bitch19

Andy Kim is a national treasure.

jakeschu.bsky.social15

That will go over well. I love Andy Kim. Time for the Gestapo to disappear

Stephanie Rewis11

For fucking what!!?? Enough of this!

lake-life-girl.bsky.social7

Is that not a crime?

Andy Kim is a true patriot and a great American.

Danny Plainview5

Andy Kim is not to be fucked with. They’ll soon find out.

amyg89074

There must be some horrific things inside that they are trying to hide.

slindquist.bsky.social4

Sen. Kim should press charges against the goons who gassed him.

Radio Caroline’s Ghost3

FUCKING END THIS ICE INVASION NOW! It has to be the biggest item on the ticket. Incredible that we have a completely lawless President, who says NOTHING about his Gestapo's horrifying tactics

IggyMom2

I don’t love this. Pisses me off. 🤬

slj2

Because, apparently we live in a police state now. 😬

sp-fxx.bsky.social5

Shut it down. Condemn it. New Jersey doesn’t want extrajudicial concentration camps in our state. Immigrants help to fuel our economy. They do all the dirty work us lazy people won’t do.

Flock to Blue🦋🌊💙🌵4

100% on donald j trump

gabrielgambino2

State officials have the right to enter, American taxpayers dollars pay for that damn facility. Dems are so damn slow to this game. 🇺🇲 #NJ

How is it possible that the governor is denied access?

They mark up the pepper spray and bill us citizens
