The owner of a popular Tex-Mex restaurant in Houston is facing backlash from left-wing activists after he posted a photo of Attorney General Jeff Sessions while at his restaurant.

The Star Tribune reports owner Roland Laurenzo posted a photo Friday with Sessions at El Tiempo Cantina, captioning that it was an "honor" to serve Sessions.

That post drew the ire of people who oppose President Trump's immigration policies and Sessions’ push for a wide crackdown on immigration.

Laurenzo, who said he does not support family separation, caved to the pressure and later deleted the photo after leftists started to call for a boycott of his restaurant.
