β’ The domestic terrorism statute is overly broad and vague.
β’ The state has violated the defendantsβ constitutional right to due process.
β’ The state has violated the defendantsβ right to a speedy trial (for those who filed speedy trial demands).
Defense attorneys are arguing a series of motions to dismiss and motions to lift bond conditions.
In essence, the motions argue the charges should be dismissed because:

ICE is STILL in Minnesota and STILL terrorizing communities. Reporters that say otherwise are either uninformed (which....) or lazy (which... ) or just repeating regime lies (which... is also extremely bad).
People are still missing, people are and will be traumatized, businesses demolished...
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. Sheβs married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
Theyβve already sent her to Louisiana.

24.02.2026 18:21 β π 29015 π 10797 π¬ 395 π 303MEDIA ADVISORY: (2/25, 9AM) Grassroots Coalition to Rally and Testify Against Anti-Protest Bills at City Hall WHAT: New York City organizations will be holding a rally and press conference prior to City Council's "Committee to Combat Hate" hearing. The groups oppose proposed bills that would ban protests near places of religious worship and buildings affiliated with educational facilities. These anti-protest bills are intended to suppress dissent on campuses and against illegal sales of stolen Palestinian land, but they would impact protests and speech rights much more broadly. WHO: Over forty local organizations and their allies from Palestine solidarity and antiwar activists to reproductive rights, civil liberties, Jewish organizations, students, and labor unions. WHEN: Wednesday, February 25 @ 9 AM WHERE: City Hall Steps
WHY: In January, City Council Speaker Menin proposed bill 001-2026, followed by Councilmember Dinowitz's proposed bill 175-2026, which would task the NYPD Commissioner with creating buffer zones blocking protests around places of religious worship and buildings affiliated with educational institutions. The proposals come after Gov. Kathy Hochul included language in the Executive Budget to establish 25-foot buffer zones around religious institutions and healthcare facilities. If passed, the bills would greatly limit the areas available for demonstrations, given the density of places of worship and educational institutions, thereby severely undermining the free speech rights of New Yorkers. Grassroots organizations at the rally are demanding that city and state officials reject proposed buffer zones around healthcare facilities, places of worship, and educational facilities, and take tangible steps to stop the sale of stolen Palestinian land in New York, in violation of state and federal fair housing and civil rights acts and international law.
A coalition of +40 organizations are mobilizing tomorrow morning against proposed legislation in NYC Council to create protest βbuffer zonesβ that activists and legal scholars say will stifle and criminalize protest and seems focused on stopping pro-Palestine demos against illegal land sale events.
