Now they're really stirring the hornets nest.

This person isn't a rando - they are a prominent civil rights activist - Nekima Levy Armstrong.

She was arrested for coordinating the church protest last Sunday where the minister of the church "happens" to lead an ICE field office. I'm sure they're trying to pin a hate crime on her.

Needless to say, this story will be very important to watch.

You really can't believe your eyes at this point. Unreal.
