Far-Left Illinois Congressional Candidate Reveals Her Injuries After Getting Wrecked by ICE Agent and Posts Ridiculous Tweet in Response to Incident

The congressional candidate who went viral for getting wrecked by an ICE agent during a protest in Illinois is speaking out in more detail about the incident, and not making things better for herself.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Katherine Abughazaleh, who is running for Congress in Illinois’s 9th Congressional District, joined other anti-ICE protesters in Broadview on Friday to block a processing facility used by the agency.
Abughazaleh later decided to mess around with ICE. As the video below shows, the Illinois Democrat decides to rush right in front of an ICE vehicle in an attempt to prevent it from.
But one brave ICE agent springs into action and promptly takes care of Abughazaleh. He is seen forcibly dragging her away and proceeds to body slam her onto the ground.
She ends up landing hard on her rear. Ouch.

Abughazaleh later revealed to a reporter the extent of her injuries from the body slam.
It turns out she’s bruised on the right side and has other ‘minor’ wounds. Moreover, she was tossed to the ground again earlier in the day.
Just spoke to Kat Abughazaleh over the phone who told me she’s bruised on her right side and has other minor injuries after being thrown to the ground by ICE agents twice this morning in Broadview

So, the most significant injury she suffered was probably to her own ego.
Abughazaleh also went on X and proclaimed that conservatives were calling for her arrest because she is the only candidate in her race who will stand up to Trump and ICE.
Has anyone ever heard of this woman before this incident or know anything about her opponents?
“Right-wingers are calling for my arrest,” Abughazaleh wrote. “You know why? Because they know I’m the only candidate in my race who will actually stand up to ICE and Trump. And they’re right.”

Conservatives responded to this with the equivalent of hysterical laughter and made clear that the reason they were calling for her to be held accountable.
You really showed them, Kat.

I don’t know enough about you to want you arrested since you’re a nobody.
But that video where they bounced you off the ground was awesome!

You’re running to be part of the body that makes the laws of our nation.
You literally just broke one of the laws passed by the People’s representatives, did you not?
If elected, should people pick and choose which laws you pass to obey?

No, we’re calling for your arrest because nobody is above the law.
