There’s nothing more American than saying, NO KINGS‼️

REPUBLICANS ABOUT JANUARY 6: “A gathering of tourists.”

REPUBLICANS ABOUT THE NO KINGS PROTEST: “A hate rally.”

They praise the mob and condemn the movement. You see what they’re doing, right?

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

White words on a black background read:

50+
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers.

~20
Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

This could have been our first family with a moral compass. Instead, we have a perverted bigot who wants to sex 1 daughter, ignores his other kids, & has a 3rd wife who hates him & doesn't live with him in the White House.

Nye: We are here to tell our lawmakers that what's going on in our government is
wrong. They must stop the abuses of this petulant president and his circle of sycophants. No thrones, no crowns, no king

CBS: In what Homeland Security says was “an extreme act of judicial activism”, Chicago federal judge Sara Ellis tells Homeland that her order requiring federal agents to wear and turn on body cameras was not a suggestion, but an order.

Warren: The only movement these Republicans can manage is bowing down to Trump. When you ask them about today, they claim the No Kings Rally is anti-American. They’re wrong. Hundreds of thousands of people protesting peacefully for what they believe in—that is deeply American. That is patriotism.
