Blind Protester Detained by Feds Because He Was the ‘Weakest Person They Could Find’ – Twitchy

One great aspect of this administration is that they’re good at social media. Just a week ago, Sen. Bernie Sanders admitted that Republicans are so good on social media because their friend Jeff Bezos owns X. Sure, this administration does a little trolling. It also fights back against the media. The Department of Homeland Security account is particularly good at filling in the blanks in X posts and network news headlines.





For example, The Oregonian reported that federal agents detained a blind protester because he was “the weakest person they could find.”

Shane Dixon Kavanaugh reports for The Oregonian:

Quinn Haberl believes his disability and diminutive stature are precisely why six federal agents descended upon him during a protest outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs and Enforcement facility in South Portland last weekend and dragged him into the building.

“I think they wanted to make a point,” said Haberl, who is 4-foot-6 and legally blind. “So they picked the weakest person they could find and made a big show out of it.”

It was also the second time in a single week that federal officers used physical force against Haberl while he was seated by himself on the sidewalk near the driveway of the ICE facility, a frequent flash point in the monthslong clash over President Donald Trump’s immigration policies.

Still, the 36-year-old said he was undeterred and would soon return.

Here’s DHS’s response to The Oregonian:

The post continues:

… plan to also report on this individual yelling he “hopes somebody kills you guys and if they do, we should give them the medal of freedom” to our law enforcement?This violence against law enforcement must END. We will not be deterred by rioters. Law and order will prevail.





Good for DHS for calling out these fake news stories.

Editor’s Note: The Schumer Shutdown is here. Rather than put the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats forced a government shutdown for healthcare for illegals. They own this.
