Dozens of anti-ICE protesters busted at Trump Tower after lobby takeover: ‘Bring them home!'
About two dozen anti-ICE protesters swarmed the lobby of Trump Tower in Manhattan Monday, and were busted after refusing to leave. The mostly grey-haired crowd sat together on the ground, chanting, 'Bring them back! Bring them home!' as NYPD cops descended on the Fifth Avenue skyscraper around 1 p.m. The group called for the release of inmates from the notorious hellhole prison CECOT in El Salvador – where migrants deported from the US, and even 'dangerous' American citizens convicted of heinous crimes are held in overcrowded cells. 'We are demanding that the administration bring back everyone from CECOT to the United States, release them ICE custody, return them to their homes and families and allow them their day in court,' demanded a woman leading the protest. The NYPD confirmed that the protesters were given multiple orders to disperse from the lobby, but refused to comply. An audio recording with the message, 'This is the New York City Police Department. You are occupying these premises unlawfully and without permission. I am ordering you to leave these premises now. If you refuse to leave, you may be subject to arrest,' played before police began placing the crew in zip-tie handcuffs. Sources say 24 demonstrators were rounded up by the NYPD. Charges were not immediately filed.

Nearly two dozen arrested outside Manhattan ICE facility after protests erupt into chaos
Nearly two dozen people were busted as protests erupted Wednesday night after ICE arrested multiple migrants at a Lower Manhattan courthouse hours earlier, cops said. Twenty-three people were taken into custody as activists rallied outside the U.S. Immigration Court on Varick Street near West Houston Street, according to police. Eighteen were released with summonses, and the status of the five others was not immediately known. The arrested demonstrators were attempting to block the path of the two vans that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were using to transport the detained migrants, Hell Gate reported. The crowd also clashed with authorities over the barricades set up to keep them back, according to CBS New York. The protesters were outraged after two dozen masked, plainclothes officers gathered Wednesday afternoon in the lobby of 26 Federal Plaza, where they corralled at least six migrants as well as a Queens pastor who tried to intervene, according to a report in The City. The six men and one woman were spotted as agents carted them — some in handcuffs — back into an elevator they had just come out of, the outlet reported. ICE spokesperson Marie Ferguson told The City that the operation was in line with the Trump administration's push for 'expedited removal' of those who had illegally entered the country over the last two years under the Biden administration. 'ICE is now following the law and placing these illegal aliens in expedited removal, as they always should have been,' Ferguson said. 'If they have a valid credible fear claim, they will continue in immigration proceedings, but if no valid claim is found, aliens will be subject to a swift deportation.' But a member of the crowd gathered on Varick Street told CBS he was astonished by the scene. 'I've never seen anything like this,' said the man, who only provided his first name, Ben. 'I've been working here for a couple years and I've never seen this many agents, let alone agents dressed in plain clothes, wearing masks, pulling people out of line. It's totally out of the ordinary.' Meanwhile on Thursday, at the City Council's Fiscal Year 2026 executive budget hearing, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the NYPD prohibited by city law 'to participate or assist in civil immigration enforcement, and we do not.' 'We have been very clear and consistent on this, and our officers understand that this is a red line we cannot cross,' the top cop said. 'At the same time, we will continue to target criminals, regardless of their immigration status.' 'Some have asked whether we should reconsider our cooperation with federal agencies on criminal investigations in light of their work with ICE,' Tisch added. 'The short, straight answer to this is no. Working with our federal partners on criminal matters is crucial to the safety of our city.'

'Who Killed JFK?' Dallas Express Sold Out Event — Exposes Deep Public Distrust
Nearly 200 people packed into Community Beer Company on Monday night, and nearly 1,000 more tuned in live on X, as The Dallas Express tackled a question that still haunts Dallas — and the nation — more than 60 years later: 'Who Killed JFK?' What unfolded was not a quest for a final answer, but a clear sign of something deeper: widespread public distrust in the narratives handed down by government officials and legacy media. Audience members listened intently, asked hard questions, and openly challenged the mainstream storylines surrounding President John F. Kennedy's assassination. Some brought their own theories. Others just wanted the truth — or at least, an honest discussion about it. 'We weren't here to push a conspiracy,' said The Dallas Express COO Drew Robinson. 'We were here to make space for open inquiry — and clearly, people are hungry for that.' Headlining the panel were Dennis McCuistion and Dory Wiley, two respected Dallas businessmen with deep ties to both the financial world and the JFK research community. Their unique mix of analytical rigor and historical knowledge made for a lively and layered discussion. They dissected decades of unanswered questions — from the shortcomings of the Warren Commission to the CIA's long-withheld documents — without claiming to know it all. The night wasn't about certainty. It was about skepticism. And the packed room made one thing loud and clear: Americans are no longer willing to be told what to think.
