Kat Abughazaleh: Congressional Candidate Assaulted by ICE in Chicago



Illinois Democratic congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh was thrown to the ground by ICE agents on Friday during a protest outside the Broadview Processing Center in Chicago, where immigrant detainees are held. At least 10 people were arrested as federal agents fired pepper balls and tear gas into the crowd, which was there to oppose the Trump administration's immigration crackdown known as "Operation Midway Blitz."
