Mark Ruffalo has claimed billionaires and ‘white people’ are creating more problems in the United States than illegal immigrants.
The Avengers actor attended a No Kings Day protest in New York City on Saturday to speak out against President Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement.
Ruffalo, an outspoken liberal, was seen wearing a hat with the word ‘Immigrant’ emblazoned on it.
He argued that the migrants the Trump administration is targeting in its ICE raids are good people – and that wealthy Americans and ‘white people’ are the ones who are committing crimes.
‘We get to see who is really making our lives unbearable and making us so desperate,’ he told the activist group New York Immigration Coalition at the scene. ‘It’s not the immigrants, it’s the billionaires.’
Ruffalo, whom Finance Monthly estimates has a net worth of $90 million, then went on to claim Trump and conservatives are wrongfully scapegoating migrants for the problems created by white Americans and billionaires.
‘We’re seeing what’s happening,’ he said.
‘First of all, we’re understanding that the immigrants aren’t the criminals. If you look at the statistics, most of the crimes committed in this country are by white people – non immigrants,’ the actor claimed, adding that immigrants ‘add to our economy by the billions.’

Ruffalo repeated those sentiments in prepared remarks at the massive protest.
