Rep. Nadler condemns Trump admin after staff member handcuffed during congressional office security sweep

Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., criticized the Trump administration for "sowing chaos" in communities while announcing that a member of his staff was handcuffed and briefly detained at his New York City office last week.

Federal Protective Service (FPS) officers were responding Wednesday to reports that protesters were inside Nadler's district office in Manhattan. At the time, a protest was taking place outside an immigration courthouse in the same facility as the congressman's office. 

"Based on earlier incidents in a nearby facility, FPS officers were concerned about the safety of the federal employees in the office and went to the location to ensure the safety and wellbeing of those present," a Homeland Security spokesperson told Fox News Digital.
