Meg Barnette, the wife of New York City mayoral candidate Brad Lander, opened up about his arrest on social media.
Brad Lander, the Democratic mayoral candidate and comptroller of New York City, was detained by federal officials at an immigration court on Tuesday after he attempted to escort a person who the authorities were trying to arrest.
Lander’s wife, Meg Barnette, tweeted from her husband’s official X account to confirm the imprisonment. Lander still remains in custody, according to Lander campaign spokesman Dora Pekec.
It is one of several high-profile instances when federal authorities have arrested a Democratic politician. Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.), who interrupted Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem during a news conference five days earlier, was arrested and thrown to the ground.
