#NoKings in Northridge, CA. Inflatable Pikachu was handing out Halloween goodie bags.

Me wearing a shirt with a cute, green frog holding a sign that says “Abolish ICE.”

Across the street, an inflatable Pikachu handing out Halloween candy, and an inflatable Reptar. Protesters with signs stand in the foreground. One sign reads “Imagine hating immigrants more than pedophiles.” Another says “we don’t kneel for kings. We stand for justice.”

Protest sign depicting Trump as a pig in a suit and crown, says “No Kings, Impeach.” Under his piggy arms, skulls on his desk are labeled “freedom,” “due process,” “habeas corpus,” and “bill of rights.”

He’s a master at looking the other way and ignoring abuse. I wouldn’t expect any better from him.

Perry asks again whether, if the inability to execute the law is b/c of the feds' "own provocation, does that matter under the law?"

Hamilton: "No, if that were true, the fact still remains that we are seeing sustained violence against federal personnel and property in Illinois."
