Protesters removed after disrupting Trump rally in Texas – video
Donald Trump’s latest campaign rally in San Antonio, Texas, was rocked by repeated protests as the US president urged Texas voters to back the embattled Senate candidate Ken Paxton. At least half a dozen demonstrators interrupted the US president during his speech, with some led away by police.

What the coverage shows
Most outlets converge on a Texas rally for Ken Paxton being repeatedly disrupted and on Trump using the speech to promote Paxton. The Guardian US and NBC News are most explicit about protesters being removed or grabbed, while CBS News and the Associated Press foreground hecklers being ejected or interrupting the event. The New York Times is the only outlet here to frame the rally as an awkward pairing between Trump and Paxton, and The Atlantic’s extract is the only one that appears to place the scene in Nebraska rather than Texas.
