It’s being reported that some Democrats are going to bring illegal Dreams to Trump’s State of the Union speech tonight:

Congressman Paul Gosar (R-Arizona) says he has asked Capitol Police and AG Sessions to arrest and deport them. pic.twitter.com/zycsPyWszp
As stated above, that led Rep. Gosar (AZ-04) to ask the capital police to arrest and deport any illegals entering the Capitol building:
Today, Congressman Paul Gosar contacted the U.S. Capitol Police, as well as Attorney General Jeff Sessions, asking they consider checking identification of all attending the State of the Union address and arresting any illegal aliens in attendance.

Additionally, Congressman Gosar asked that they arrest those using fraudulent social security numbers and identification to pass through security.

“Of all the places where the Rule of Law needs to be enforced, it should be in the hallowed halls of Congress. Any illegal aliens attempting to go through security, under any pretext of invitation or otherwise, should be arrested and deported," said Congressman Gosar.

Jeff Flake, who is also from Arizona, didn’t much like Gosar’s request: “This is why we can’t have nice things…”

Gosar hit right back and Flake: “This is why you got forced out of office.”

BOOM!
But it appears that Paul Ryan is more with Flake than he is Gosar:

I seriously doubt anyone will be arrested tonight. But if they are you can be sure this will be the most epic SOTU ever…
