Since President Trump\u2019s second term began, the war on immigration enforcement has gone from ugly to downright dangerous. Month after month, attacks on ICE agents and detention facilities have escalated \u2014 what started as protests and vandalism has spiraled into open violence.<\/p>\n
Now anti-ICE extremists aren\u2019t just waving signs or throwing bricks; they\u2019re literally pulling triggers, taking aim at federal agents in cold-blooded attempts to kill them. This isn\u2019t \u201cactivism.\u201d It\u2019s political terrorism, and it\u2019s getting worse by the day.<\/p>\n
Over the summer, violence hit frightening new levels. In Alvaredo, Texas, an attempted ambush on the ICE Prairieland detention facility left a law enforcement officer wounded after multiple attackers botched their plan.<\/p>\n
But the most chilling incident came just this week in Dallas, when a gunman stormed an ICE field office and opened fire. According to FBI Director Kash Patel, his clear intent was to assassinate ICE agents. Instead, he struck three detainees, killing one, before turning the gun on himself.<\/p>\n
Then there\u2019s Portland, Oregon\u2014ground zero for anti-ICE chaos during Trump\u2019s first term and again now. In June, federal agents had to beat back yet another assault on a local ICE facility, where agitators reportedly smashed through the glass front doors, breached the building, and vandalized the exterior.<\/p>\n
But the antics have only gotten darker. In a more recent stunt, Portland\u2019s so-called \u201cprotesters\u201d dragged out a guillotine while blasting a song with the chilling refrain, \u201cWe got the guillotine, you better run.\u201d<\/p>\n
