The Propaganda Press Keeps Trying To Turn Radical Anti-ICE Agitators Into Victims

Aliya Rahman says she feels “lucky to be alive,” that the days since federal law enforcement officials dragged her out of her car have been “traumatizing and overwhelming.”
Corporate media outlets will tell you that, too. All of them. The same story, the same narrative. The “disabled woman” was just trying to get to her doctor’s appointment, they report, pushing the left’s message that Rahman is another victim of President Donald Trump’s Immigration & Customs Enforcement agents and their roundup of poor “undocumented” immigrants.
What they won’t tell you — at least not until deep into the story — is that Rahman, according to the Department of Homeland Security, was arrested for obstruction after she “ignored multiple commands by an officer to move her vehicle away from the scene.” Because she failed to do so, a DHS official told The Federalist, Rahman was arrested for obstruction.
The accomplice media made sure to emphasize Rahman’s claims that she was “brought to a detention center where she was denied medical care and lost consciousness.” They haven’t been all that interested in finding out her full resume, as The New York Post did, reporting that the woman screaming on the viral video, is a “tech guru and LGBT and racial justice activist [including a decade-long history with Black Lives Matter] who describes herself as a ‘friendly neighborhood deniable asset.’”
