Senator Dave McCormick told viewers on Saturday Agenda that the escalating anti-ICE rhetoric out of certain liberal circles is not just political posturing — it is making the job of lawful immigration enforcement far more dangerous and complicated. He warned that dehumanizing language directed at federal officers fuels chaos on the ground and can lead to real violence, a point he’s reiterated in multiple interviews as protesters spread into suburbs and sanctuary cities.
Those warnings are not hypothetical. Former ICE officials and border experts have bluntly said that the vitriol and public celebration of obstruction embolden violent actors, and federal law-enforcement facilities have been targeted in a string of incidents that underscore the risk to agents and the communities they protect. Americans should be outraged that political theater from mayors, governors, and activist elites could translate into bullets and blood on federal employees simply doing their jobs.
Let’s be clear: calling for the abolition of ICE or comparing agents to villains isn’t a policy debate — it’s a direct attack on the rule of law. Tech platforms and activists have even encouraged tools that could reveal officers’ locations, a dangerous trend the DOJ has had to confront as private apps and online mobs increasingly put agents in harm’s way. The consequences of that recklessness are foreseeable and unforgivable.
McCormick didn’t stop at law enforcement. He used his national platform to press the real issue Americans in small towns care about — rural healthcare and keeping hospitals open. Conservatives know that hollowing out local hospitals destroys towns and leaves families stranded without emergency care, and McCormick has long spoken about infrastructure and pragmatic policies to revive rural economies and medical access. That isn’t partisan grandstanding; it’s common-sense stewardship of communities that keep this country running.
On foreign policy, McCormick made a sober point that America First never meant abdicating defense of our national interests — including confronting Iran’s nuclear ambitions when diplomacy fails. He told Newsmax that a world where Tehran develops a nuclear weapon is intolerable and that standing with allies, while using decisive force when necessary, is consistent with putting America first. Voters tired of weak global postures should welcome leaders who combine strength with strategic restraint.
The choice is stark: either we preserve a civilized nation that respects the rule of law, protects its officers, and defends its borders, or we allow corrosive rhetoric and ill-conceived policies to erode public safety and the institutions that serve us. Senators like McCormick are doing the hard job of calling out the madness and offering real solutions — something Democrats who pander to the radical fringe refuse to do. The rest of us should stand with our men and women in uniform, demand accountability from elected officials, and reject the dangerous language that puts Americans at risk.
If conservatives want results, we must be louder and more organized in defending law enforcement and rural families while holding media and tech accountable for enabling violence. McCormick’s message is simple and patriotic: law and order, common-sense homeland security, and practical support for rural America. Hardworking Americans know what’s right — and it’s time Washington listened.
