I wish the spread sheet had a separate column for state for sorting later (this is easy to do in Excel, just at a column after the ",". (@gelliottmorris.com). Also space for non -US protests by expats should be added.

Thank you for this... we're surely at the 3.5% by now (I calculate 9million = 3.5% of the adult population.

ICE in the Courts.

...an attorney sent this message: ".... ICE is here in plain clothes arresting folks. DHS attorneys dismiss and then ICE is here and handcuffing and arresting. I have never seen this in my 15 years of practice"
