Justin Bieber is speaking out against Donald Trump. While Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have been busy working with Trump and the White House to release A$AP Rocky from jail in Sweden, Bieber is speaking out on behalf of the children being detained at the border.

“I want my friend out.. I appreciate you trying to help him,” Bieber tweeted. “But while your at it @realDonaldTrump can you also let those kids out of cages?”

Kardashian recently posted an update on her work with Trump, Jared Kushner, and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

“Thank you @realDonaldTrump , @SecPompeo, Jared Kushner & everyone involved with the efforts to Free ASAP Rocky & his two friends,” she posted to Twitter on Thursday. “Your commitment to justice reform is so appreciated.”

According to TMZ, Kardashian reached out to Kushner shortly after hearing that A$AP was being held in a Swedish jail while he waits to find out if he’ll be charged for aggravated assault. Kushner then passed the info along to Trump who urged the State Department to get involved.

Meanwhile, the Twitter-happy president has yet to respond to Bieber’s tweet, which has currently racked up more than 600 thousand likes and 17 thousand replies. Bieber’s stylist, Karla Welch, who’s used her own platform to raise awareness for different social and political causes, praised her client on Instagram.


“Proud is an understatement. USE YOUR PLATFORM!” she wrote. “Love you @justinbieber @haileybieber #familiesbelongtogether #freerocky.”
