California man who voted for President Donald Trump has spoken out after being detained by immigration agents. Brian Gavidia, a 29-year-old American citizen from Montebello, joined a lawsuit challenging immigration enforcement tactics after federal agents detained him on June 12, NBC 4 Los Angeles reported. "I truly believe I was targeted because of my race," Gavidia told the outlet, adding elsewhere in the interview, "We were all brainwashed." "While conducting a lawful immigration enforcement operation in Montebello, CA, Brian Gavidia was arrested for assaulting a law enforcement officer and interfering with agents during their duties," Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek.
