Trump orders ICE vengeance on ‘No Kings’ protest cities
Trump orders ICE vengeance on ‘No Kings’ protest cities
President gives nakedly political order for law enforcement to target Democratic cities.
Donald Trump ordered ICE officers to prioritize deportations in Democrat-run cities in a wild Truth Social rant Sunday night.
Trump issued the unprecedented, politically motivated orders just hours after millions of protesters gathered in major American cities, calling for Trump’s megalomania to be curbed.
Trump told ICE staff to “do all in their power” to detain and deport undocumented immigrants in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York.
Protests in these cities—and many more Democrat-controlled districts—attracted millions of citizens on Saturday, dwarfing the crowd that attended Trump’s birthday parade in Washington, D.C.
You're viewing a single thread.
Weren't the protests in pretty much every city in the country?
The best I saw reporting in was a town of 800 in deep red Trump country with a turnout of 400. Wish I could remember the town. Faiy certain it was a rey on Lemmy but may have been bluesky.
175 people showed up in Pulaski, TN. I live about an hour from there. That's where the KKK was founded. Deep as red gets (At least in my experience)
That's a solid 2% of the town
No one in OK is tearing down my “Defund ICE” signs.
Are they literate enough to tell "Defund" from "Defend"?
Defundly not.
Possibility. The pro-trans messaging I leave often gets a fairly violent reaction. Someone destroyed a Dollar Tree bathroom over a couple of stickers I left behind once.
Damn dude, if you tag a cop car you can get them into a fash-on-fash fight
I wish I could do this, but despite being a citizen, I am not white, and worry it'd put a target on my back.
About 2100 locations, per Indivisible. So yeah, ICE gonna be spread thin, I guess.
