At prosecutor Jack Smith's senate hearing, Eric Schmitt accused him of lying about where he's been. But the senator had his facts wrong, and Cory Booker had heard enough. #RobHeld #CoryBooker #MAGA #republicans #jacksmith #donlemon #raiseyourvoice #robertheld #lawyers #KatiePhang #ViralVideo

I was out in Bridgeview yesterday opposing criminal agitator Jake Lang and his thugs who were hurling rocks at the crowd. One boy was hit in the head and is reported to have suffered a concussion, and as needing four staples. 10/04/26 #RobHeld #chicagoiswatching #MAGA #chicagoprotest #freespeech

The Justice Department is going to see sanctions and consequences for their criminal tampering in the Broadview Six case! We all know there was no crime by the protesters and the ICE agents were the aggressors. Now Judge April Perry is demanding they turn over evidence for investigation. #RobHeld

ICE is full of overly aggressive men. Watch this protester describe being shoved by an armed man who towered over her. There is no excuse. ICE agents need consequences for criminal behavior. #RobHeld #ICE #Broadview #chicagoprotest #freespeech #arrestICE #ICEAssault #prosecuteICE #chicagoprotest

Chicago Council of Lawyers President Rob Held warned ICE agents and federal officials that they must uphold the law. He spoke at a press conference about the civil lawsuit he filed a lawsuit against Adam Saracco, the ICE agent who recently pleaded guilty to battery for his attack against Held.

ICE agents are brutalizing citizens without consequences. The two that chased me Saturday while I was protesting have both been involved in recent assaults - one resulted in a man being bloodied and taken to the hospital. I am demanding accountability and transparency! Join me by FOLLOWING!

The Mayor of Broadview didn't want to lose another lawsuit, so she quietly removed the "protest zone" outside the Broadview ICE Facility after I filed my lawsuit. She's since taken to social media to pretend there never were any restrictions in the first place, but you can't rewrite history.

Trump and his cronies painted Memphis as a "savage" city as an excuse to turn it into a a surveillance-police state and target immigrants. They believe racism will let them get away with it. Help prove them wrong by SHARING this video and raising awareness. #RobHeld #ICE #racism #memphis #Trump

Rob Held @robertsheld.bsky.social · 16/09/2026
In Memphis, a massive surveillance network is paired with coordinated federal and local law enforcement with immigrants as its current target. What happens in Memphis won’t necessarily stay in Memphis. This model is thought to be a blueprint for the rest of the country. We need to pay attention!

ICE agents in Memphis use the local "Halo Law" to hide from accountability. Peaceful observers are required to stay 25 feet away from any officer. So, one agent will hold observers back far enough so they can't witness and document what the rest are doing to their immigrant neighbors. #RobHeld

DHS lies! Memphis has been under siege by ICE from more than a year. Trump wants you to believe they are targeting "the worst of the worst" violent criminals, but they are going after hard-working immigrants. Hunter Demster (depicted here) is a local activist.

"Straight-up fascism, ya'll" 3,000 ICE agents are currently deployed and terrorizing Memphis, TN and the media is ignoring it. They have been under siege for more than a year. If it hasn't already, this is what is coming to your city under Trump and a MAGA majority. I've been here on the ground.

Rob Held @robertsheld.bsky.social · 28/08/2026
Trump's top DHS lawyer is putting judges at lethal risk by listing them on social media as "the worst of the worst," simply because they have made ruling unfriendly to MAGA. These judges are already at risk of violent retaliation by MAGA extremists, and James Percival is fanning the flames.
