In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

There a law against threatening the life of an elected official.

What happens to California's redistricting after Texas' congressional maps were struck down in court?
