Sounds like an excellent opportunity to sue them into the ground. A federal officer illegal disregarding your constitutional rights is a payday most can only dream of.
So chill out and lawyer up.
Comment on YSK what legal rights you have in encounters with ICE

None. They said your rights can be waved away at the discretion of any federal agent. Which means your rights don’t exist

*If you survive. Also you can’t sue the government without their consent.

You can sue the individual.

Actually no, qualified immunity shields them personally. A tortured orecedent, if the exact situation has not happened and been sued on it gets thrown out, or some ridiculous thing like that.

The courts are fucked, we cannot sue our way out of this. Scotus will cancel it with any success, if appeals did not first.
They already barred nationwide injunctions. The admin could round up citizens to concentration camps and no judge can now say stop. You can try to sue individually as if irreperable harm would not have haapened by then if you could even get it into court.
Seriously that was a big deal and media did not realize it. Or tell us if they did. Scotus is nazi.

But you can feel some sort of satisfaction as you count them off just before they execute you.
