A Chicago alderwoman was arrested by ICE agents on Friday afternoon inside a hospital in the Humboldt Park neighborhood.

Ald. Jessie Fuentes (26th) had gone to the Humboldt Park Health to check on someone who was injured during an immigration arrest,
when ICE agents demanded she leave before grabbing her and handcuffing her.

The encounter was recorded on cell phone video shared on social media.

"This is a hospital.
Do you have a signed judicial warrant for him?
I am asking. I am asking. I did not touch you. I did not touch you," she said as she was handcuffed.

"I did not touch you. I asked you if you had a signed judicial warrant for him.
It is very simple. It is very simple.
That man has constitutional rights. I did not touch you. It is a public space. I am not trespassing.
I am asking you do you have a signed judicial warrant?"

"We told you to leave. You are impeding. Now you are under arrest for impeding," said the agent who handcuffed her.

Fuentes was released from custody a short time later.

"I simply asked, 'Well, what did I do wrong, outside of ask you if you have a signed judicial warrant.

I want you to articulate to me what law did I break?
They had to take those handcuffs off, because we have constitutional rights, and in the city of Chicago, every single elected official is going to protect those constitutional rights," she said.

Fuentes said she had gone to the hospital to check on a man who suffered a broken leg after ICE agents chased him.

"I asked them if they have a signed judicial warrant to be in the emergency room and have him detained,
and they refused to respond," she said.

"Not only do they refuse to respond, but they respond with violence
by shoving me in the emergency room,
and then I continue to ask if they have a signed judicial warrant,
and then they handcuff me and threaten arrest,
and they threaten arrest because I'm exercising my constitutional right to ask a question."

NASA is facing backlash after reportedly being ordered to destroy a fully operational satellite that plays a crucial role in monitoring the Earth’s atmosphere.

Imagine a perfectly good, high-tech spacecraft gathering invaluable data on carbon dioxide
– a key player in climate change
– only to be sent hurtling back into our atmosphere to burn up.

This isn’t the plot of a sci-fi movie;

It’s the reality for the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite.
