    Possibly another part of the same incident: https://old.reddit.com/r/Sacramento/comments/1qud1cc/dhs_is_wilding_out_today/

    If so I believe this was yesterday or the day before. Can’t see the exact post time on Reddit, annoyingly.

    This is at the John Moss Federal building in Downtown Sacramento, where DHS has illegally blocked congressional oversight and kept prisoners in a building never designed to hold people and which lacks basic amenities like beds, water, or toilets. https://www.capradio.org/articles/2025/08/25/matsui-denied-entry-to-ice-site-as-sacramento-leaders-demand-answers/

    There has been a near 24/7 protest here by a small number of protesters, some I recognize in this video, including the guy who was sprayed. He has been subject to repeated fascist violence over the months he has been protesting. You may have seen a viral video of him being shoved by a DHS agent who kicked over a memorial for Renee Good a few weeks ago. https://slrpnk.net/post/32543515

    He was also jumped by a group of MAGA thugs with baseball bats not long ago and had the windows of his van smashed. https://youtu.be/2o-X34c8D2Y

    For any locals, they are asking for more bodies to help keep the protesters safe, especially at hours when it’s not as popular to protest (usually after work and weekends have the biggest crowds.) These repeated assaults and arrests only seem to happen when the protest is small in numbers.

    You can also support them by bringing food and coffee by.

      That sure looks like the same outfit to the individual on the ground to me. Thank you for sharing the additional info!
