Michelle Malkin to Headline Pro-ICE Rally on Friday Protesting Sanctuary Montgomery County, MD After 8 Illegal Aliens Charged with Rape in Past Month

Conservative icon Michelle Malkin will headline a pro-ICE rally Friday in Montgomery County, Maryland calling out the sanctuary county for protecting illegal aliens in the wake of the arrest of eight illegal aliens in the past month on rape and sexual abuse charges--many involving child victims. A counter-protest by leftist groups is planned with County Executive March Ehrlich as a speaker. (One counter-group passed along a rumor Donald Trump Jr. may appear at the pro-ICE rally: "There are rumors that Donald Trump Jr. will be there")

Malkin is a former resident of Montgomery County.

The rally is being held at the county government building at 100 Maryland Avenue in Rockville from 11 a.m. to noon and will also feature WMAL-FM talk radio host Larry O'Connor, local conservative activists and Montgomery County Republican Party chairman Alexander Bush.

Statement by organizer Concerned Citizens Coalition of Montgomery County posted on Facebook:

"Get off the sidelines. Show your support for ICE and the rule of law. Protect American families and children and put sanctuary anarchists in Montgomery County on notice! Bring American flags, signs. Join Michelle Malkin and Larry O'Connor along with Help Save Maryland and grass-roots Maryland activists...special guests to be announced! YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS!"

Co=sponsor Help Save Maryland posted a statement on the rally:

Time for Montgomery County, Maryland to terminate the dangerous “Promoting Community Trust” Executive Order implemented in July 2019.

Demand Montgomery County Executive Marc Erlich and the entire Montgomery County Council begin working with federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to remove illegal alien criminals from our streets.

Demand that Elrich and the County Council serve the citizens instead of front groups like CASA of Maryland and the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Get Montgomery County, Maryland out of the national news! End the horrific rapes of our children at the hands of illegal alien criminals allowed to roam free in our neighborhoods by our elected county officials.

Let the Montgomery County Police do their jobs of protecting our fellow citizens from MS-13 gang members and illegal aliens.

Meet WMAL’s Larry O’Connor and Michelle Malkin, Nationally Known Blogger and Author of “Open Borders Inc.: Who’s Funding America’s Destruction?”

Other national and local activists will be in attendance and speaking. See Updated Event Information Below.

Spread the word! Find out what you can do to remove illegal alien criminals from our streets and improve public safety. See you Friday!

The leftist group Showing Up for Racial Justice announced on Facebook a counter-protest with the usual collection of leftists:

The forces of racism and hatred have decided to organize in Montgomery County and show their support for ICE. They’ve even invited pro-hate VIPs. Let's drown out the hate with NOISE. Please show up THIS FRIDAY AT 10:30AM IN ROCKVILLE FOR A COUNTER-PROTEST. Let's counteract their hatred with our determination to continue to build a community that rejects racism, xenophobia, and other forms of hate!

Cohosts: 1199 SEIU Maryland/DC, 32BJ SEIU, ACLU PeoplePower MD MoCo, Action in Montgomery - AIM, Adat Shalom Reconstructionist Congregation MD DC VA, CASA, CASA in Action, Communities United Against Hate - Montgomery County, Congregation Action Network, DoTheMostGood MoCo MD, ICE Out of Baltimore, JCRC of Greater Washington, Jews United for Justice, Many Languages One Voice, MoCoWoMen, Montgomery County Civil Rights Coalition, Montgomery County DSA, Montgomery County Office of Community Partnerships, Poor People's Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival, Peoples Power Assembly, Progressive Maryland, Sanctuary DMV, SEIU Local 500, SURJ MoCo: Showing Up for Racial Justice, Montgomery County MD, Takoma Park Mobilization, UFCW Local 400, UFCW Local 1994 (MCGEO), United We Dream, Youth Against War and Racism

Statement by co-organizer Takoma Park Mobilization:

Anti-immigrant forces have announced a rally Friday in Rockville, and we’re responding. We need your help…

The Trump Administration has targeted Montgomery County in recent weeks, given our Community Trust Executive Order, in an attempt to spread fear. They have deployed a web of lies to demonize our neighbors and community, including via attacks on County Executive Marc Elrich and council members. Yet the Trust Executive Order enables all residents, regardless of their immigration status, to feel safe and welcome, and it encourages use of vital county resources to help working families prosper. We support it.

We’re counter-protesting. Takoma Park Mobilization and partners initiated MoCo Stands With Immigrants, Friday, September 13 at 100 Maryland Avenue in Rockville, starting at 10:30 am. National attention is focused on our support for immigrants. We’re going to show our community, our elected officials, and the Trump Administration what we’re really about.

Event: MoCo Stands With Immigrants

Where: Montgomery County Council Office Building, 100 Maryland Avenue, Rockville

When: Friday, September 13, starting at 10:30 am

What: A pro-immigrant rally with chants, songs, short speeches (including County Executive Marc Elrich), and maybe marching

Who: 25 advocacy, community, and faith groups and unions… and YOU

Bring: Signs & noise-makers, and wear white (optional)

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/401084097112710/ — RSVP, Like & Share

The location is 10 minutes walk from the Rockville Metro station.

We’re up against an anti-immigrant rally, Concerned Citizens Coalition of Montgomery County #StandWithICE, slated for Friday at 11 am at the Montgomery County Council Office Building location. Click here to see what we’re fighting. There are rumors that Donald Trump Jr. will be there. (We have a permit and have coordinated with Montgomery County officials and the Rockville and county police.) We’re going to outnumber the Antis with a positive message of love and welcome for our immigrant neighbors.

THE ORGANIZERS’ STATEMENT (WORKING VERSION) We are united in our support of our immigrant neighbors and families. We are united in support of policies that build community safety for all. We are united in rejecting racist, xenophobic attacks on immigrants meant to further President Trump’s destructive and divisive national policies.

We refuse to be silent as anti-immigrant extremists use our community to further their White Supremacist agenda. We refuse to participate in silencing immigrant women and femmes who are leading the solutions to violence against women. We refuse to be idle as extremist media attacks the organizers and policy-makers who are working every day to make our community the best that it can be.

There can be no compromise with those who have invaded one of the most diverse communities in America to spew their anti-immigrant nonsense. Anyone who bows to their anti-immigrant talking points enables racism right here and will be held to account. Racists are not welcome in Montgomery County; immigrants are.

Not really, but it would be good for FReepers in the area to show up.

I remember over 20 years ago when she was a FReeper. She covered the first Puget Sound FReeper Meet in 1998 when she was working at the Seattle Times.

Not sure I understand the point of posting that Twitter exchange... are they still at each other’s throats as they were in 2013? If not, what’s the point, here?

I think you are confusing it. This has to be in Rockville, at the very building housing the rulers of said Monty Co. DC would be too far and pointless.

Will be there tomorrow.

In August we had 7 sexual assaults by illegals, 3 victims were kids. Some of us are fed up and then some.

Yes please report.

Rarely does something like this happen in MD. Too bad my semester has started. I might’ve gone down to the neighboring county.

I met her at a DC Freep outside CBS. She was there in a baseball cap with her kids. As I was walking to the Metro, I stopped, looked, and said, “You’re Michelle Malkin.”

She acknowledged she was, and I said “Nice to meet you. I enjoy your column.” She thanked me, and I continued on my way.

Great! From photos I’ve seen it looks like it was a successful protest with a large turnout.

It was a great crowd today. People were not exactly angry but close. I’d say more passionately concerned. (And really sweet to each other)

Larry O’Conner did a wonderful job!!

Speakers were a couple of safe border activist, an Asian legal immigrant who discussed how hard her parents worked to get their family here (talked to her after the rally. She reeealy loves this country.)

Other speakers were Tom Fitton, (me and the people around me all thought he referenced Judicial Watch getting active in this MoCo mess), Sebastian Gorka, and Michelle Malkin

But the best speaker was an Angel Wife. (I think her last name was Wolfe.) I was teary eyed after her speech and Michelle Malkin hugged her right after. She looked teary eyed too.

I think an added hoot was meeting a contributor to the Washington Time. She was a black women, in her 60’s, wearing a bike helmet. I asked her “You road your bike here?!! She said “Heck no, I just prepared for the worse!” LOL!

As far as the other side..... Not too many people, some Casa de Maryland, a few youngings that should have been at work or school, and a bunch of old hippies. Banging drums, blowing in whistles and ringing cow bells ESPECIALLY when the Angel Wife was talking.

Ran into a few people I’ve met through work who I had no idea were Republicans.

We had American flags, THEY DIDN’T.
