It is so ironic that those screaming the loudest about immigrants breaking the law by coming here illegally are the same ones who voted a felon into the White House.

The Republican playbook. Blame all social ills on the illegal immigrants and all economic ills on the Democrats. Their answers include guns to ward off the criminals and a Bible to ward off the godless Liberals (Democrats). I am still trying to figure out where the word illiberal fits in all of this right wing rhetoric.

I think you can shorten "illegal immigrants" to just "immigrants". The Third Reich only had the Jews. The Fourth Reich has Latinos and Democrats to blame.

'Jury finds LA protester not guilty of assaulting border patrol agent'

"A Los Angeles protester charged with assaulting a border patrol agent in June was acquitted on Wednesday after US immigration officials were accused in court of lying about the incident.

The not guilty verdict for Brayan Ramos-Brito is a major setback for the Donald Trump-appointed US attorney in southern California and for Gregory Bovino, a border patrol chief who has become a key figure in Trump’s immigration crackdown. The 29-year-old defendant, who is a US citizen, was facing a misdemeanor and was the first protester to go to trial since demonstrations against immigration raids erupted in LA earlier this summer.

Border patrol and prosecutors alleged that Ramos-Brito struck an agent during a chaotic protest on 7 June in the south Los Angeles county city of Paramount outside a complex where the Department of Homeland Security has an office. But footage from a witness, which the Guardian published days after the incident, showed an agent forcefully shoving Ramos-Brito. The footage did not capture the demonstrator assaulting the officer."
