Story by Bonny Chu • 12h

A Democratic congressional candidate in Illinois has been indicted on federal charges stemming from an incident in which protesters allegedly attacked an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) vehicle outside a Chicago suburb facility last month.

Katherine "Kat" Abughazaleh, 26, who has branded herself as a "Gen Z influencer" running for Congress in Illinois’s 9th District, is accused of conspiracy to impede or injure an ICE officer while on duty in Broadview, Illinois, on Sept. 26, according to a Thursday indictment unsealed Wednesday.
 
Abughazaleh had been expected to win the Democratic nomination to succeed Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL.), 81, who is retiring.

Five other protesters were also indicted alongside Abughazaleh, including one of her associates and two other political candidates. The defendants include Andre Martin, described in the indictment as an associate who worked for or with her; Michael Rabbit, a Democratic committeeperson in Chicago’s 45th Ward; Catherine Sharp, a candidate for the Cook County Board of Commissioners; Brian Straw and Joselyn Walsh, who are listed as Illinois residents.

Excerpt:
America, if this doesn’t prove Trump’s crackdown on radical left violence is hitting home, nothing will—Illinois Democrat congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh has been federally indicted for attacking and blocking a federal vehicle outside the Broadview ICE facility, a blatant act of impeding, intimidating, and interfering with U.S. officers. The charges stem from her role in a mob that banged on DHS vehicles during anti-ICE riots, where she was among those assaulting agents. In one viral clip, she got pummelled to the ground by an agent done with her BS—now, justice is served as she and co-defendants like Michael Rabbitt, Andre Martin, and Catherine Sharp face the music. The indictment details how an agent was detailed to an administrative role at ICE, and in Broadview, the group harassed and blocked him. Even after her minor injury, the agent treated her—talk about grace under fire




I was waiting for this since the video came out of what they did.

Very glad she's facing accountability, and the rest of them.
