He asked for it.
Leftist agitator William Kelly, who has appeared at multiple anti-ICE protests across the country and who frequently taunted law enforcement officers, has been arrested.
Kelly was part of the group of protesters who stormed Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota.
The official White House X account replied to a video of Kelly taunting Pam Bondi: “You wanna come arrest me? You wanna come give me charges? So be it!” Kelly said.
The White House shared Kelly’s arrest picture, saying, “checkmate.”
Bondi also replied, saying, “OK” to Kelly’s call for her to arrest him.
