As Dreamers protested outside Marco Rubio’s office, a U.S. Border Patrol truck showed up

As immigrant advocacy groups rallied outside Florida Sen. Marco Rubio’s and Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart’s offices in Doral Monday, protesters say a U.S. Customs and Border Protection truck circled around the group.

“@ICEgov just sent a truck to intimidate the dreamers fasting outside of the offices of Senator @marcorubio and Congressman @MarioDB. #CleanDreamAct #DreamActNow,” posted Florida Immigrant Coalition’s Tomas Kennedy.

The protest was organized to demand the protection for Dreamers, those who were brought by their families to the United States as children even though they were undocumented immigrants.

Many of those participating— some elderly — launched a week-long hunger strike Friday, urging local politicians to fight the Trump administration’s repeal of the country’s Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program and the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

This was in LA estimated 500 thousand to one million were in attendance.

This reminds me of that guy a few years back on Youtube who went to Home Depot and picked up some illegals but drove them to immigration instead.

I’m disappointed. ICE shouldn’t have been intimidating them. They should have been arresting them.

No sweat FRiend.

I didn’t even know who he was until I started watching Joe Rogan and Joey Diaz’s podcasts. Those guys and their circle of friends are hilarious.
