They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!”

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.
Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.
New: the govt has moved to dismiss its assault case against Marimar Martinez and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, two people accused of "box[ing] in" a Border Patrol vehicle in Chicago on Oct. 4.
One agent shot Martinez, with evidence presented to the court that he later bragged about in text messages.

He also claims the Dems are engaging in 'seditious behavior'.

This is what we’ve been saying here in Chicago since ICE arrived. When they’re chasing down landscapers and kidnapping guys coming out of coffee shops and terrorizing nannies in parks, they’re not looking for criminals. They’re criminalizing being brown in America.
Remember how Trump said ICE targets “violent criminals?”
Trump’s own DOJ now reports that ONLY 2.5% of the people ICE arrested in Chicago have any criminal history.
That means 97.5% have ZERO criminal record. They were targeted because they were of Latino ethnicity. This is what fascism looks like
