The New York City Police Department arrested about two dozen protesters at Manhattan’s Trump Tower who were demonstrating against the White House’s position on immigration policy on Monday.
The demonstrators chanted “Bring Them Back,” while they occupied the lobby of the building. They also read the names of the illegal immigrants who were deported to the CECOT maximum security prison in El Salvador.
Video shot by Fox News showed dozens of NYPD officers entering Trump Tower armed with plastic ties hanging from their belts.
Anti-ICE protests began to spread across the country on Monday in response to an eruption of violent protests across Los Angeles, which has now entered its fourth day.
In another video, protesters sitting in a circle were warned to leave the building or face arrest. Once the officers approached the protesters, they were told they were subject to arrest.
Police then used plastic ties to detain two dozen protesters from the lobby of the building. The protesters were restrained and then escorted outside and placed into police vans.
President Donald Trump warned rioters in Los Angeles that his administration is “not playing around” as U.S. Marines prepare to deploy to the city Tuesday.
Trump made the statement during an exchange with reporters, adding that he had called California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday and criticized his handling of the riots.
“A day ago, I called him up to tell him got to do a better job. He’s done a bad job causing a lot of death and a lot of a lot of potential death,” Trump said of Newsom.
Bag’m, Tag’m….Deport’m
Due process is a right for CITIZENS of the United States, not criminals that came here illegally (which made them criminals). The due process for illegals was made up through legislation from the bench, was it not? These decisions were wrong and need to be reexamined by the Supreme Court with special emphasis on the words “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof”. The 14th amendment is quite plainly speaking of US Citizens throughout section 1 of the amendment. Certainly, those that enter our Country illegally are not being “subject to the jurisdiction thereof”. They are scoffing at that jurisdiction!
Never made news in CA etc vs OUR riots
