One panel comic showing a bunch of ICE agents in front of the Jefferson Memorial.
The first one is holding John Adams down with his boot against the back of the containment van. John Adams yells "Take your boot off my face, you louse! I'm a citizen! From the greaat commonwealth of Massachusetts!"
The second ICE agent is watching and says "We'll decide who's American, 'Juan Adams'."
Two other agents are keeping Thomas Jefferson back. The one pointing his gun says "Go about your business. Pretend we're not here." Another says "Yeah, go on, tell your little jokes. Easy on the French stuff."
Thomas Jefferson says "In his defense, the joke was really more about Alexander Hamilton than Charlie Kirk."
