Ogles attached a letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi citing U.S. code provisions on revocation of citizenship for material support to terrorism, based on a New York Post article alleging Mamdani expressed solidarity with individuals convicted of terrorism-related offenses before becoming a U.S. citizen. Mamdani was born in Uganda.

• ICE agents arrest US citizen Andrea Velez in downtown Los Angeles without identifying themselves — On June 24, 2025, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in plainclothes and gaiter masks forcibly detained Andrea Velez, a 32-year-old US citizen, during a street operation in downtown Los Angeles. Velez was dragged into an unmarked SUV without being told why. The Department of Justice subsequently charged her with assaulting a federal officer, a felony carrying up to 20 years imprisonment. Sixteen days later, prosecutors dismissed the charges after Velez's attorney requested body-worn footage and witness statements that the government could not produce. Video evidence showed Velez did not resist and appeared to be standing still when taken.

Her family, including her mother (a resident alien) and sister, were present and screamed for help. Authorities did not inform the family of her whereabouts for over a day.

She spent two nights in jail and was charged with a felony for obstructing an officer, a charge the Justice Department dropped two weeks later.
• Department of Justice charges Andrea Velez with felony assault on federal officer — Following her June 24 arrest, the DOJ charged Andrea Velez, a 4-foot-11-inch US citizen, with assaulting a federal officer based on an affidavit claiming she extended her arm into an officer's path. Velez denied the allegation, stating she never touched anyone. The charge carried a potential 20-year sentence. Prosecutors later moved to dismiss the charges sixteen days after her arrest when Velez's attorney requested body-worn footage and witness statements that the government could not produce.
