Al Green was forcibly escorted out of the House chamber after staging a planned protest during Donald Trump’s State of the Union address, marking his second removal during a major presidential speech. Green displayed a protest sign referencing racial controversy linked to Barack Obama and Michelle Obama, triggering immediate confrontation from Republican lawmakers, including Troy Nehls, who attempted to seize the sign. Green later said his protest was deliberate and strategically positioned so the message would be clearly visible to Trump. He defended his actions by invoking civil rights icons Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks, framing his protest as part of a broader struggle for justice. WATCH
