There were two US citizens in the car. They were apprehended and detained for “obstructing” ICE by honking their horn to let people know ICE was in the neighborhood.

Congressional Democrats who served in the military’s video reminding US personnel they have a duty to refuse illegal orders, and lawmakers will get their back if they have to, was very good.
And as @gregsargent.bsky.social notes, it jammed Mike Johnson, who’s been thwarting Congressional oversight.

The correct answer to MAGA outrage over the Dem video is this: Are you effing kidding me? Of course it's reasonable to warn that Trump might be giving illegal orders.
The evidence is strong that he actually is giving illegal orders! I went through that evidence here:
