A Border Patrol agent was filmed punching a U.S. citizen in the head during a stop in a suburb outside of Chicago on Friday, and tried to justify it by saying the car was tail-gating them. Now the mayor is announcing an investigation into the agents. Evanston Mayor Daniel Biss announced an investigation of the Board of Public Safety Patrol agents seen kneeling on a man and striking him repeatedly while he was handcuffed, reported The Daily Beast.

“I can’t breathe," the man can be heard at one point before he was dragged into an unmarked vehicle. Speaking to CNN about the incident, Bliss said, "They forced this car accident, and then they started literally beating up innocent bystanders," calling DHS "a bunch of liars."

Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin and Trump’s Border Patrol commander, Gregory Bovino, alleged on X that the reason the Border Patrol agent was punching the man while handcuffed and kneeling on him was that the man allegedly grabbed the agent's groin area and squeezed.

DHS wrote: “As you know this is an extremely painful experience for most human beings and justifies certain responses, [and] the agent delivered several defensive strikes to the agitator to free his genitals from the agitator’s vice.” A video of the incident shows something different, however. There were about a dozen videos of the incident, and none showed the man grabbing anyone, the Beast said.

But none of the videos showed this

5. Call the Vise Squad

Note to DHS: While grabbing someone by the genitals (see Trump, Donald J.) is indeed a vice, as well as a crime, the word for a tool that grips tightly is vise. If you must misrepresent so hyperbolically, at least get a grip on vocabulary.
