Driving the news: The posters — which read “ARRESTED” — specify various crimes linked to the pictured immigrants and have the White House’s official logo at the bottom.
-The “roughly 100” posters were being placed strategically along “Pebble Beach,” where TV news crews do live shots in front of the mansion. A White House official told Axios the intent is for the posters to be visible behind TV journalists reporting from those positions.
-Posters positioned near the West Wing claim to show unauthorized immigrants arrested for “first-degree murder,” “sexual abuse of a child,” “kidnapping and rape,” “murder,” “rape of a child,” and “distribution of fentanyl.”
-Others claim to show people charged with “sexual assault of minors,” “sexual contact with a child,” and “lewd acts in front of a child.”
-The posters describe the arrestees as “illegal aliens.” Their names and precise legal statuses aren’t included.
This is not good, it’s the modern day equivalent of parading people down the street so the public can throw rocks or cabbage at them.
That might still become a real thing considering where things are moving.
Not when we won’t be able to afford wasting cabbage like that!
