Amidst the protests against President Donald Trump's executive order banning immigrants from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen from entering the United States, Marvel Comics writer Brian Bendis landed at JFK airport in New York City moments ago and tweeted:

This comes against a backdrop of protesters gathering on the scene and chanting "Let them in! Let them in!" and "Fight back! Fight back!" as some immigrants are being detained in handcuffs and questioned.
