Democrats plot protests for Trump's State of the Union address

House Democrats are plotting a range of moves to broadcast their defiance of President Trump during his State of the Union address to Congress next week.

Trump's speech marks a significant flashpoint as it comes amid a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown, with the White House and Democrats locked in an impasse over reforms to Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection after immigration agents fatally shot two U.S. citizens in Minnesota.

While some Democrats are making a quieter stand by skipping the high-profile event, others are prepared to walk out mid-speech and bring guests to underscore their arguments about the real-world impact of Trump's policies.
