Kim Kardashian has called out the Trump administration over its “inhumane” immigration raids in Los Angeles, which have generated national outcry and spurred days of protests in the city.
“When we’re told that ICE exists to keep our country safe and remove violent criminals — great,” Kardashian wrote in a statement posted to her Instagram story on Tuesday. “But when we witness innocent, hardworking people being ripped from their families in inhumane ways, we have to speak up. We have to do what’s right.”
No matter where you fall politically, it’s clear that our communities thrive because of the contributions of immigrants.

Kardashian, a lifelong resident of Los Angeles County, said she has seen firsthand “how deeply immigrants are woven into the fabric of this city.”
“They are our neighbors, friends, classmates, co-workers and family,” she continued.
The reality star told her more than 356 million followers on the platform that this isn’t a partisan issue: “No matter where you fall politically, it’s clear that our communities thrive because of the contributions of immigrants. We can’t turn a blind eye when fear and injustice keep people from living their lives freely and safely.”
“There HAS to be a BETTER way,” she wrote.
Kardashian, 44, also shared a video of Doechii denouncing the raids during Monday’s BET Awards. “There are ruthless attacks that are creating fear and chaos in our communities in the name of law and order,” the rapper said.
