Amber Heard Under Fire for Warning Nannies, Housekeepers About ICE Checkpoint

Amber Heard Warns Nannies, Housekeepers & Gardeners Watch Out for ICE Checkpoint!!!

Amber Heard's coming under fire for her racially-charged tweet ... warning housekeepers, nannies and gardeners about an ICE checkpoint.

The actress took to Twitter just after midnight on Tuesday and said, "Just heard there's an ICE checkpoint in [H]ollywood, a few blocks from where I live. Everyone better give their housekeepers, nannies and landscapers a ride home tonight."

The outrage was immediate. One person responded, "I can see where you were going but somewhere along the way you took a wrong turn. Delete this sis." Another person wrote back, "I would expect you to have a little more sense than this, but... you did date Johnny Depp."

Amber fired off a second tweet 10 minutes later in an attempt to clarify and shed light on the turbulent political climate. She wrote, "Checkpoints on your home streets.... Is this the 'great' America we’re aiming for? Raids, fences and police-state like checkpoints don’t feel like the ‘land of the free’ our immigrant ancestors built."

For what it's worth, some did come to Amber's defense. One person replied, "I think the tweet is meant to be sarcastic...sorta calling out the elites who do hire these ppl in these profession. I could be wrong here...but that's how I read it upon first glance."
