Organized campaign to call out sick in “solidarity with illegal aliens” turns into embarrassing failure as America shows up to work anyway
The Latest Liberal Meltdown Strategy
The left just tried their newest form of “resistance”: calling out sick from work to protest actual law enforcement.
The campaign: “Sick-of-ICE, Sick-of-Trump” sickout protests
The website: SICKOFICE.ORG (yes, they actually organized this)
The goal: Shut down America in “solidarity” with illegal aliens facing deportation
The result: Epic failure
When Virtue Signaling Meets Reality
Here’s what the organizers thought would happen:
- Mass walkouts from major cities
- Economic disruption to protest immigration enforcement
- National solidarity with people here illegally
- Trump administration panic over widespread resistance
What actually happened:
- Most people went to work like normal adults
- America kept functioning despite liberal tantrums
- Real workers ignored online activists
- Another “resistance” movement died on arrival
The “No Kings” Déjà Vu
Remember the “No Kings” protests that were supposed to bring down Trump?
Predicted: Massive nationwide uprising
Reality: Handful of angry people holding signs
Now we get “Sick-of-ICE” – same energy, same failure, same delusion that Twitter activism translates to real-world impact.
Calling Out Sick to Protect Law Breakers
Let’s be clear about what this protest actually supports:
What they call it: “Solidarity with immigrants”
What it actually is: Protecting people who broke immigration law
Who they’re defending: Illegal aliens facing deportation
What they’re protesting: Law enforcement doing their job
Translation: “We’re so upset that laws are being enforced that we’re going to skip work about it.”
The Privilege of Protest Sickouts
Only certain types of people can afford to call out sick for political protests:
Government employees with unlimited sick days
College students who don’t have real jobs
Trust fund activists who don’t need paychecks
Work-from-home warriors who were already going to slack off
Meanwhile, real working Americans showed up to their jobs because they have responsibilities.
