Homeland Security Says Video Shows ‘Targeted Arrest,' Not Hit and Run
Federal agents used their unmarked vehicles to pin a car on Wednesday in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles and drew their weapons to make an arrest, prompting angry reactions as video showing the encounter spread quickly on social media. The Los Angeles Police Department initially said officers were investigating the incident near downtown as a possible assault or hit and run. But several hours later, the Department of Homeland Security said on social media that the episode was 'no hit and run.' 'This was a targeted arrest of a violent rioter' who had punched a Customs and Border Protection officer and tried to flee from agents, the department posted on X. It named the person who had been arrested but did not provide charging documents or other evidence. Video of the crash shows two unmarked vehicles — a truck and an S.U.V. — colliding with a white sedan at an intersection. Smoke can be seen behind the sedan as agents immediately exit their vehicles with weapons drawn. The sedan's driver steps out with his hands raised. In another video, apparently recorded moments later, a woman holding a child beside the sedan can be seen asking an agent for the agent's name and badge number. The agent closes the passenger door of the S.U.V., which can be seen leaving the intersection. A press officer for the department did not immediately respond to a request for more details. On social media, the agency said: 'You will not stop us or slow us down. ICE and our federal law enforcement partners will continue to enforce the law. And if you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.'

More ‘Mostly Peaceful' Nonsense
Media outlets are hitting their Orwellian groove as they continue to emphasize the bright side of lawlessness. Try doing a news search of the term 'peaceful' and see how many of the resulting dispatches include a reference to violent activity. As the fact-checkers might say, the media industry is ensuring that there is no lack of important context—or is the industry just manufacturing excuses? 'Peaceful protesters help clean up Little Tokyo museum damaged during ICE protest,' says a hopeful headline from KABC in Los Angeles, leading with the theme of pleasant participants and then politely implying rather than stating directly that some protesters were violent.

In Trump's Washington, ‘You Don't Leave Home Without Your Lawyer'
For the roughly 80,000 lawyers in Washington and its environs, this is the worst of times and the best of times. Worst because President Trump's threats have prompted some of the nation's biggest firms to capitulate and pledge a collective $1 billion in free legal work for the White House. But it is best, at least in the volume of work, for the firms handling some of the astounding number of lawsuits — more than 400, according to a New York Times tracker — that have been filed against Trump's administration since the start of his second term. Some of those cases are in other states, but most are being fought in the nation's capital. 'This is a good time to be a lawyer in Washington,' said Gregory B. Craig, who was a White House counsel to former President Barack Obama. 'Good lawyers, like other humans, want to be wanted. And these days in Trump's world, whether you're an immigration lawyer or a university president or the head of an independent agency, you don't leave home without your lawyer.' Craig, who worked for more than four decades for two big-name firms, Williams & Connolly and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, retired in 2019 after his acquittal on a charge of lying to the Justice Department. He came out of retirement last week to work in the Washington office of Foley Hoag, a firm based in Boston. Donald B. Verrilli Jr., a partner at Munger, Tolles & Olson who was solicitor general under Obama, agreed that this was an extraordinary moment to be a Washington lawyer, but he sounded less chipper about it. Verrilli was the author of a brief supporting Perkins Coie, the first law firm targeted by Trump. Ultimately, 500 firms, mostly boutique and medium-sized, signed the brief, but only eight of them were among the nation's top 100 firms. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
