A surge in violent attacks against ICE agents has former agency director Johnathon Fahey sounding the alarm. Since January, reports show assaults on immigration officers jumped 830 percent compared to the same period last year. Fahey warns things may get worse as radical leftists ratchet up their attacks, both physically and rhetorically.
ICE agents face real danger every day. This month a mob attacked an ICE employee after a California Democratic congressman exposed his personal information to a crowd. The agent was hit with a rock and hospitalized. Liberal politicians keep fueling the danger with inflammatory lies about immigration enforcement.
President Trump’s policies let ICE focus on public safety. Since his incumbency, homicides dropped 17 percent, gun assaults fell 21 percent, and sexual assaults decreased 10 percent in major cities. These results come from removing dangerous criminals, not just “undocumented” immigrants.
Critics claim ICE is arresting too many non-criminals. New data shows most arrests target non-violent offenders but that’s exactly why communities are safer. Unlawful presence itself is a crime, and proactive enforcement deters more severe offenses.
The left’s anti-ICE rhetoric has real consequences. Mainstream media and Democratic lawmakers falsely portray agents as “terrorists” – language that incites violence. At the same time, they block requests for more resources to protect officers.
ICE’s mission is protecting Americans. Despite activists claiming 93 percent of arrests are non-violent, every deportation removes someone who broke our laws. Even non-felons can eventually commit serious crimes if left unchecked.
The Biden administration dismantled previous restrictions, leaving ICE overwhelmed. The agency now faces a $1 billion deficit and operational challenges while trying to enforce the law. Now Biden’s allies actively undermine their work.
The choice is clear: siding with ICE agents who protect our communities or radical Democrats who betray law enforcement. Federal officers deserve our gratitude, not political targeting. Hardworking Americans must stand with ICE against these dangerous attacks.
