I would like to welcome Kat to the club of people who committed no crime but were indicted for political reasons. The club's membership is growing at breakneck speed!
I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

A source familiar with this incident told me today that not only did they arrest and charge the comedy club manager, but the Latino man he was defending from ICE -- who was also arrested and whisked away -- **is also a U.S. citizen.**

It's unclear where the Latino man is now.
