CNN Boosts Story of ‘Disabled’ Woman Arrested by ICE, She’s a ‘Social Justice’ Activist
21st January 2026
On Tuesday’s Inside Politics, CNN attempt to give credence to a story that an unfortunate “disabled” woman was accosted and arrested by ICE for supposedly no reason while trying get to a doctor’s appointment. But a simple search of the woman’s name, Aliya Rahman, turns up a treasure trove proving that she had a long history as a professional liberal activist working with far-left organizations that promote “racial,” “criminal,” and “social justice.” With part of her focus being against law enforcement.
“We’re hearing for the first time from Aliya Rahman, the woman ICE officers dragged from her vehicle while she shouted that she was disabled and trying to get to her doctor’s office,” announced host Dana Bash.
What followed up was a soundbite of Rahman claiming that even someone without her cognitive processing problems would have an issue understanding the ICE agent’s order to move her car out of their way.
