Overview

• U.S. Department of Homeland Security police entered Rep. Jerry Nadler’s Manhattan district office on Saturday and briefly handcuffed one of his aides.
• Video footage shows officers accusing staff of “harboring rioters” and attempting to enter a private area of the office without presenting a warrant.
• Nadler’s office and a DHS spokesperson confirmed the aide was neither arrested nor charged and that the matter was resolved.
• DHS said the detention stemmed from reports of protesters inside the office and occurred after the aide blocked officers from conducting their check.
• Later that day, demonstrators gathered outside the building, which houses both the congressman’s office and a federal immigration courthouse, to protest ICE enforcement actions.
