"She was holding up photos of some of the scenes there in Minneapolis and in one she took issue with someone flipping their middle finger off, flipping off ICE agents. Just to be clear, whatever you think of ICE, love them or hate them. Some of the behavior that you're seeing in Minneapolis by people who are opposed to their operation there. Some of it is lawful and some of is unlawful. And flipping them off, that is law full. Flipping the bird is your First Amendment right."
"Trump flipped off a heckler who called him a pedophile protector as the president toured a Ford plant before giving a speech to the Detroit Economic Club on Tuesday. The man, 40-year-old TJ Sabula, was suspended from his job following the incident. But at Thursday's White House press briefing, Leavitt railed against protesters who used the state bird of New Jersey against ICE agents."
Brianna Keilar rebuked White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt for condemning protesters who flipped off ICE while the White House defended President Donald Trump's similar gesture. Trump flipped off a heckler who called him a "pedophile protector" during a Ford plant visit; the heckler, 40-year-old TJ Sabula, was suspended from his job. Leavitt criticized protesters who used the state bird of New Jersey against ICE agents and suggested reserving the president's right to invoke the Insurrection Act. Keilar emphasized that flipping someone off is lawful protected speech under the First Amendment, noting the White House called Trump's response appropriate.
