I work for a California State Senator and seeing one of our close neighboring Senators get detained for questioning a government-appointed official at a press conference? That’s wild 😳

Not something you’d expect to see happen to senator or in a functioning democracy 🤦🏻‍♀️

We randomly called his office to update on an ICE location and they told us in real time that he was being detained. We were stunned.
