A video of a Chicago woman who was dragged out of her car and wrestled to the ground by ICE agents while she sat at a school pick-up line, only to be released later, infuriated an MSNBC panel on Wednesday morning.
The viral clip, posted to Instagram by Eryn McCallum, who can be heard yelling at the agents, set off a wave of angry criticism from three “Morning Joe“ hosts.
With co-host Mika Brzezinski reading a statement about that ICE assault from DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin, where she claimed “ICE is not going to schools to make arrests of children. Criminals are no longer able to hide in America’s schools to avoid arrest. The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement, and instead trusts them to use common sense,” Brzezinski added on, “Joe [Scarborough], that shouldn’t be even happening anywhere, let alone near a school.”
Co-host Scarborough then launched a furious rant
“And who thinks this is good politics? Who thinks this is good policy? They go into school pick-up lines, attack people like, according to this video, like, brutalize them and then release them!”
“Who is telling Republicans this is a good idea?” he shouted. “Not only is this thuggish, but who’s telling Republicans, ‘Hey, this will really help you out in the midterms. This will help you out politically.’”
“What, 32 percent of sick people are they playing to who want to see people improperly taken out — they were released later, we are told,” he continued.
“This is crazy,” co-host Brzezinski interjected. “Who’s telling the speaker [Mike Johnson] this is good politics?” Scarborough continued. “They can run around screaming illegal immigration. Americans want a secure border. Americans want people to get here legally. And at the same time: two truths. You can hold them in your hands. They don’t want to see that. They don’t want to see that happening in a school pick-up line.”
A grim-faced Jonathan Lemire later added, “Deeply un-American. And in that video, you can hear the screams, just like the screams in that video that the DHS shot in Chicago a couple of weeks ago during when they raided an apartment in the middle of the night with helicopters and pulled children out of their bedsbeds.”
