ICE protests in downtown Spokane escalate to state of emergency after demonstrators ignore curfew, with police deploying tear gas and making arrests for failure to disperse.

Several people involved in an apparent anti-ICE protest in Washington D.C. on Friday were detained by Capitol Police on the U.S. Capitol grounds after allegedly breaching a barrier and running towards the steps of the Capitol Building,

The parade is expected to include about 6,600 soldiers, 50 helicopters and 60-ton M1 Abrams battle tanks, as well as possibly 200,000 attendees and heightened security to match.

Several lawmakers, including Michael Baumgartner and Patty Murray, released statements following Wednesday night's protests.

Washington Governor Bob Ferguson and other local lawmakers deliver a united message, urging for peace and safety in preparation for upcoming anti-ICE protests around Seattle.
