- Last Sunday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt sneered at `elitist` celebrities who criticized President Donald Trump’s deportation agenda at the Grammy Awards, invoking Jocelyn Nungaray and Laken Riley, two people killed by undocumented immigrants.
- A-List musicians including Billie Eilish, Justin Bieber and Joni Mitchell wore `ICE OUT` pins, and several winners, including Bad Bunny, used acceptance speeches to denounce ICE at Sunday's Grammy Awards.
- Bad Bunny, the Album of the Year winner, received a 30-second standing ovation when he urged immigration agents to back down, saying `We’re not savage, we’re not animals, we are not aliens, we are humans, and we are Americans.`
- Leavitt defended ICE and the Trump deportation crackdown, saying officers aim to remove violent predators who took innocent Americans' lives.
