Our Reading

As expected, the matter has reached another stage.

The man wore an “ICE” vest, but DHS said he’s not affiliated. A 15-year-old is charged with attempted assault. The incident happened near a protest against the Trump administration. The protest had a familiar tone, with a changed name to “No Dictators” out of respect for Hawaiian history. The DHS reported a rise in assaults on ICE officers, and the incident adds to the narrative of increased tensions.

It’s now a familiar scene: a protest, a confrontation, and a video that goes viral.
