Anti-ICE protesters in Austin, who as far as I can tell were mostly just standing on the steps and sidewalk in front of the JJ Pickle federal building, have been dispersed with tear gas and flash bangs.

Tear gas was fired at protesters in Austin at the JJ Pickle Federal Building to disperse protesters.
The area has been cleared. The building is used by ICE to process people for deportation.
There was another protest at the Texas Capitol.
The group at the federal building wasn’t identified.

Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.
