Shocking surveillance video released from the Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility shows a scene straight out of a nightmare: shackled detainees and ICE personnel scrambling for cover as gunfire rang out in a fortified sally port early Wednesday morning. The footage strips away any soft-focus rhetoric and reveals the raw danger federal officers and the public face when violent extremists target our institutions.
Authorities have identified the shooter as 29-year-old Joshua Jahn, who allegedly climbed to a rooftop and opened fire into the transport area, killing one detainee and critically wounding two others before taking his own life. Investigators recovered handwritten notes and physical evidence that point to an explicitly anti-ICE motive, underscoring this was a premeditated attack on federal personnel and facilities.
If there’s any silver lining in the horror, it’s that ICE agents on the scene displayed calm, courage, and professionalism under fire, moving those in custody to safety even while some were still shackled. These men and women put their lives on the line to protect others—no applause from the halls of power or late-night pundits can replace real action to keep them safe. The bravery on display deserves our gratitude and our concrete support.
Deputy ICE Director Madison Sheahan was blunt in interviews: hostile, dehumanizing rhetoric against law enforcement and immigration officers fuels threats and makes their jobs deadlier. Sheahan’s warning should land like a thunderclap on every politician and pundit who casually demonizes ICE; words have consequences, and coddling anti-government hostility invites bloodshed.
Federal investigators say the suspect researched DHS facilities, tracked agents, and even left a cartridge marked ANTI-ICE, painting a chilling picture of ideological violence. This is not the time for partisan finger-pointing or equivocation—this is domestic political violence and must be prosecuted to the fullest extent while the Department of Justice and Congress shore up protections for federal workers and sites.
Enough with the moralizing about “both sides” when one side is literally opening fire on those who enforce the law. Law-abiding Americans want order and protection for public servants; they deserve leaders who will secure federal facilities, toughen penalties for targeted attacks on officials, and stop coddling the narratives that inspire lone wolves. If our politicians refuse to act, then voters must use the ballot box to restore respect for law and those who uphold it.
This country owes a debt to the men and women who serve in federal law enforcement, and to the victims and families caught up in senseless acts of violence. Patriots should stand with ICE officers today, demand accountability for the attackers, and insist on policies that prevent these tragedies—starting with backing our law enforcement, securing our borders, and rejecting the rhetoric that turns words into bullets.
