Democrats vow more chaos after the arrest of the party's bag man, who helped spur the violent anti-ICE protests.
Gavin Newsom's "respected" friend, whom he calls "a patriot," David Huerta, the SEIU union boss and Democrats' bag man, was tossed into the federal lock-up in downtown Los Angeles after he was arrested Friday for blocking a federal police car.
And now the usual taxpayer-supported suspects are planning more chaos over the arrest.
Another fake martyr is born.
Newsom and the SEIU leadership said that Huerta was merely "observing" and was a "witness" to the federal authorities—as he stood to block the front-left bumper of a police vehicle to stop it.
David Huerta is a respected leader, a patriot, and an advocate for working people. No one should ever be harmed for witnessing government action. https://t.co/6v8OLXLsMx

In the video below, you can see activists surrounding a law enforcement vehicle (sound familiar?) while chanting "shame on you!"
The blow-by-blow goes something like this. A woman pushes an officer, which is a felony. Another woman stands in front of the car, touching it. That's also against the law. She's carried away by the same officer.
Then Huerta is seen impeding the vehicle. He wasn't "observing" the bust; he intentionally tried to stop the law enforcement vehicles from getting through a gate.

Huerta eventually stood in front of the driver's side bumper. This is a technique agitators use so they can later accuse good guys of hitting them with a car in case there's any contact. He stands with his hands on his hips in what he hopes looks like a posture of defiance for a future SEIU poster.
The feds lay him down in a controlled way, but he claims to have been injured. Remember these techniques for the next time you want to defy the MAN.
After that, the vehicle safely goes through the crowd, while the remaining cops are surrounded by the "protesters" and pushed.
Huerta's friends say he was knocked down by the cops, and was taken to the hospital and treated, after which the feds promptly locked him up at the federal facility.
Let's hope he didn't muss that $300 haircut while being arrested.
U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli took to X to explain in simple terms that the federal officers had judicial warrants to make arrests. For those of you in Rio Linda who are Kilmar Abrego Garcia fans, a judicial warrant means a judge signed the warrant.

He said, "Federal agents were executing a lawful judicial warrant at a LA worksite this morning when David Huerta deliberately obstructed their access by blocking their vehicle." Essayli said Huerta "was arrested for interfering with federal officers and will face arraignment in federal court on Monday."
Essayil went on, "Let me be clear: I don’t care who you are—if you impede federal agents, you will be arrested and prosecuted. No one has the right to assault, obstruct, or interfere with federal authorities carrying out their duties."
Most of the people illegally in the country who were arrested at the initial bust were accused of overstaying their visas. As an example, the man who is accused of using a handmade flamethrower to burn Jews and bomb them in Colorado had overstayed his visa, as had most of the 9/11 hijackers.
The feds also busted places where the illegal aliens were harbored and given documents.

More protests are promised by the usual government-subsidized suspects, to coincide with Huerta's arraignment at the federal courthouse in Los Angeles on Monday. And now, two other cities, Raleigh and Atlanta, have joined the planned chaos.
EMERGENCY ACTIONS TOMORROW (Mon., 6/9) to DEMAND ICE RELEASE DAVID HUERTA:

When I was a new mom, I watched LA go up in flames during the George Floyd riots.
Now, I am watching LA go up in flames over David Huerta.
I’m done.
Arrest them all.
Throw away the key.
I think this lady speaks for millions.
Seven areas of L.A. have already been hit. The left's playbook is to let everything burn.

Multiple deputies have been hurt, a car has been torched, and a strip mall has been set on fire. Now they're pushing the feds on video. Trump is right to send in the National Guard before the violence grows.
And here's one more thing about Huerta and the SEIU: Farm worker union leader Cesar Chavez never approved of, much less cheered on, illegal aliens coming into the country. He famously went to the border and, let's just say, things got very nasty.
