The footage is disturbing not just because of the thuggish way #BradLander is manhandled but also because of the brazenness. Here are #FederalAgents — not local police officers — essentially #kidnapping a high-profile #ElectedOfficial in the biggest city in the #UnitedStates, on camera as he loudly points out that they have no #jurisdiction or #legal grounds to hold him. The message is clear: If they can do that to him, they can do that to anyone.
