"IT'S A TRAP!" STATE SENATOR BECCA WHITE SNITCHES TO ALIEN, WHERE'S PAM BONDI??

Senator Becca White issues a stark warning about the ICE unit, drawing attention with a bold, pop-art style "It's a Trap!" graphic featuring an astronaut.

We are currently doing a bit of diving into the latest case of judicial overreach regarding the deporation wars. This case centers around another Palestinian activist (this time from somewhere around Palestine) and his adventures with the US legal system.

A full look at the story thus far will be out in the next few days.

A point in the story is this one. The story of Vermont State Senator and "friend of the constituent for 7 years" Rebecca White. White's claim to fame is that she has been quoted in a number of sources to have "warned the defendant" that going to his naturalizaation hearing in Vermont could "be a trap!"

Now this isn't the same as a judge letting an illegal go out the backdoor of a courtroom or other straight case of interfering with a Federal Agent, but it does, possibly, have some repercussions for the Senator. We put the team to work and came up with the following.

⚖️ Legal Framework for Investigating Senator Becca White’s Conduct Related to Mohsen Mahdawi

I. Executive Summary

This document outlines the legal statutes and investigatory standards that may apply to the conduct of Vermont State Senator Becca White in connection with her communication with Mohsen Mahdawi—an individual lawfully residing in the U.S. but later designated for detention and potential deportation by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(a)(3)(C) on foreign policy grounds. The senator allegedly warned Mahdawi of a potential “trap” prior to his arrest at a naturalization interview in Vermont on April 14, 2025.

II. Key Legal Questions

1. Did Senator White possess knowledge of a pending ICE enforcement action against Mahdawi?

2. Did she willfully communicate information or advice to Mahdawi that enabled him to attempt to avoid detection, arrest, or questioning by federal agents?

3. If so, do her actions meet the legal threshold for obstruction of justice, aiding and abetting, or shielding from detection under federal immigration law?

III. Potentially Applicable Federal Statutes

1. 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(A)(iii) – Shielding from Detection

"Any person who knowingly or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, conceals, harbors, or shields from detection...shall be fined or imprisoned."

• Relevance: Mahdawi, while a permanent resident, became the subject of a removal proceeding under foreign policy authority. If Senator White intentionally warned him to help him avoid or prepare for a surprise detention, this may constitute shielding from detection.

• Threshold: Requires proof that:

  • The individual is subject to removal.

  • The actor knowingly acted to help that person evade detection or arrest.

2. 18 U.S.C. § 1505 – Obstruction of Proceedings Before Federal Agencies

“Whoever corruptly…endeavors to influence, obstruct or impede the due and proper administration of the law…under any pending proceeding…before any department or agency of the United States…”

• Relevance: USCIS and ICE were actively processing Mahdawi's naturalization and removal case. Any outside interference intended to impede the lawful execution of that process can qualify as obstruction.

• Threshold:

  • Must prove intent to impede or interfere with a lawful federal proceeding.

  • Advice from a public official carrying perceived authority strengthens potential influence.

3. 18 U.S.C. § 2 – Aiding and Abetting

“Whoever aids, abets, counsels, commands, induces or procures the commission of an offense against the United States…”

• Relevance: If Mahdawi’s resistance to apprehension or delay in appearing was motivated or enabled by White’s advice, she could be considered to have facilitated avoidance of enforcement.

• Threshold: Requires knowledge of the unlawful act and intentional contribution to it.

4. 18 U.S.C. § 1510 – Obstruction of Criminal Investigations

Prohibits “willfully endeavoring by means of bribery, misrepresentation, intimidation, or other means to obstruct the communication of information relating to a violation of any criminal statute…”

• Relevance: If White used her position or influence to impede communication or discovery by ICE officers—particularly if she warned others—this statute may apply.

• Threshold: Must involve obstruction of communication or information gathering relating to criminal or immigration enforcement.

IV. Investigative Priorities

A. Document Collection

• Subpoena or FOIA all digital communications between Mahdawi and White (email, Signal, SMS).

• Obtain ICE operational memos and communications referencing Mahdawi prior to his interview.

• Review Signal group content created by Mahdawi titled “Just in case — Mohsen.”

B. Witness Testimony

• Interview ICE agents involved in the arrest for any knowledge of pre-event leaks.

• Depose Mahdawi regarding how and why he chose to proceed with the interview despite anticipating arrest.

• Take statement from Senator White under oath about:

  • What information she had.

  • Who she received it from.

  • What exactly she advised Mahdawi.

C. Expert Testimony

• Immigration law experts to clarify Mahdawi’s status at the time of arrest.

• DHS officials to explain the rarity and sensitivity of INA 212(a)(3)(C) cases.

• Ethics experts on misuse of office by state officials in federal investigations.

V. Risks and Defenses

• First Amendment Defense: White may argue her comments were protected speech or political advice.

• No unlawful presence: Defense may argue Mahdawi’s green card status makes harboring statute inapplicable (though this can be countered under “shielding from detection” once removal proceedings begin).

• Lack of Intent: Prosecutors must show willful obstruction, not mere concern or speculation.

VI. Conclusion and Recommendations

While criminal charges against Senator White are not automatically warranted, the circumstantial alignment of political motives, foreknowledge, and advisory communication to a federal detainee merit investigation. The following actions are advised:

1. Open a formal inquiry via DHS OIG or DOJ Public Integrity Section.

2. Request grand jury subpoenas for communications between White and Mahdawi.

3. Prepare to escalate to federal obstruction or shielding prosecution if evidence confirms intent and knowledge.

As of the publishing of this article, the Senator is still in her house with her feet up in front of the fire. Safe as a babe. When will Pam Bondi's Justice Department get off their asses and go out and check into this? The story is not unknown. The precedent that the Left can pick any fight that they want and win (by win meaning to tie up the judiciary with endless cases and appeals) while the People of the United States sit and watch this legal sideshow.

The best way to discourage this activism is the step on it, legally, and start taking out these challengers to the Consitution.
