Trump Angrily Tweeted 'LAW & ORDER!'—And 'SVU' Star Ice-T Responded Exactly How You'd Expect

As waves of protest become increasingly bloody, with police forces shooting rubber bullets and tear gas canisters directly into protestors' and journalists' faces, often at point-blank range, President Trump has responded two ways: by explicitly calling for more violence, and by all-caps tweeting the name of America's longest-running scripted TV show, Law & Order.

One of the stars of the Law & Order franchise, outspoken actor and rapper Ice-T, was emphatically not having it.


The tweet came as part of a triptych of all caps tweets Sunday evening, the first two reading " STRENGTH!" and "FAKE NEWS!". But it was the third tweet, reading "LAW & ORDER!", that caught Ice-T's eye.

Ice-T is a star of the popular Law & Order spin-off Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and suffice to say he's not a fan of the President, or his Twitter feed, or his way with words. So he fired back.

Quote-tweeting the President, Ice-T kept his response simple and to-the-point.

But Ice-T wasn't even close to finished.

Ice-T has a long history of outspokenness and activism when it comes to police brutality and racism. His band Body Count's controversial 1992 song " Cop Killer," written and recorded in the wake of the beating of Rodney King by Los Angeles police officers, addressed the issue head-on and became forever associated with the riots that ensued in the wake of the officers' acquittal at trial.

So, unsurprisingly, Ice-T had a few more choice words for the POTUS.

And still more:

And just in case his stance wasn't completely clear, he let us all know:


Other folks on Twitter were right there with him, cheering him on.



While others took on the President directly—including one Ice-T's fellow Law & Order Mariska Hargitay.


But perhaps the best part is that Twitter, as it so often does, has turned this whole thing into a way to mock the President.

People are just all-caps tweeting random TV shows at him, over and over again.





Now if we can just get him to maybe watch one of these programs instead of Fox News...

Agriculture Secretary Gives Truly Bleak Description Of A Cheap Meal Option For Americans—And Wow

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins was criticized for attempting to downplay rising food costs by sharing her rather dystopian idea of a $3 meal for American consumers amid the ongoing affordability crisis.

Rollins claimed that food prices were coming down, even as the latest Consumer Price Index shows grocery costs rising 0.7% in December. Some staples climbed far faster. Beef—which Rollins elevated near the top of the food pyramid in the dietary guidelines she unveiled this month—increased 1% over the month and was up 16.4% compared with a year earlier.
