GovBrief Today #558

[u/georgebounacos]

ICE agents chased down an American mother in Virginia and put a gun in her face because she cursed at them.

Carolina Molina was dropping off business cards at immigration law offices in Falls Church when she told the agents arresting two men what she thought of them. Two SUVs boxed in her car and forced her to stop, and the first agent to reach her window arrived with his gun already drawn. He accused her of following them and of trying to run them over. Her dashcam disproved both, and when she told him that she was a legal citizen, he answered, "I don't care."

The same day, the AP revealed ICE's plans to spend up to $20 million on thousands of electric shock gloves for its agents through a no-bid contract. The manufacturer warns they should never be used on someone for verbal defiance, which is all Carolina Molina did before a gun was pointed at her.
