@nonstopnewsforyou: At the Sundance Film Festival, actress Natalie Portman wore "ICE Out" and "Be Good" pins to protest the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). She called the agency's actions "obscene" and stated that the federal government's treatment of civilians is "really the worst of the worst of humanity". * The Protests and Incidents: * Portman's criticism—alongside statements from other celebrities like Olivia Wilde and Elijah Wood—was triggered by a series of highly publicized, fatal shootings by federal immigration and border officers in Minneapolis. The agency's deadly actions sparked nationwide outrage, prompting stars at the festival to speak out against the crackdown. * Online Backlash and Discourse * While her protests received widespread support from advocacy groups, her comments also sparked intense online discussion. Critics on social platforms questioned Portman's activism, comparing her vocal criticism of U.S. authorities to what they described as her relative silence on overseas conflicts. #natalieportman #sundance #activism
