Protesters ejected from raucous Trump rally in Texas
Several hecklers were removed from President Trump's rally in Texas late Wednesday, drawing jeers from the crowd as the president made fun of the protesters.

What the coverage shows
Most outlets frame the event as Trump’s Texas rally for Ken Paxton being repeatedly interrupted by protesters or hecklers, and several note removals from the venue. Reuters says at least a couple dozen were removed, while The Guardian US specifies at least half a dozen demonstrators and that some were led away by police. Coverage diverges on emphasis: NBC News foregrounds one protester being grabbed by an audience member, CBS News calls it a raucous rally, and the New York Times and Washington Post focus more on the broader political backdrop than on the disruptions.
