Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell stands behind doxing ICE agents even after officials said his actions put them in danger
NY Post ^ | 6/21/25 | Alec Schemmel

The Democratic mayor of Tennessee’s largest city, who has been accused of obstructing federal immigration efforts, defended his office’s decision to publicly dox the names of immigration officers.

Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell’s defense came even after the names of federal immigration officials were removed from a public immigration report detailing a month’s worth of immigration-related interactions between local police and federal immigration authorities.

Initially, the public report detailed immigration officers’ names, but following backlash over the move the names were taken down.

“I wouldn’t say it was an endangerment process, I would say they may have some concerns – I’m far more concerned about the overall dynamic we have about unmarked, unidentifiable masked people whisking people into vehicles – i think that’s a bigger concern,” O’Connell, who is currently under investigation by GOP House lawmakers for potentially interfering with federal immigration efforts, said during a press conference with reporters.

O’Connell did add the move was not “intentional,” but then quickly followed up that he wouldn’t have described what happened as “doxing” in the first place.

“It’s not a process that I would characterize as doxing. It was an unintentional release of names that were already part of a public record,” he told reporters. “They were already part of a public record by being in Department of Emergency Communication’s calls, so I don’t think it puts them at additional risk. But it’s also not an intention of the executive order under which those names are released.”

You’re saying you agree with the Nashville mayor and want ICE agents unmasked?

He needs to be arrested, tried, convicted, and sent to prison. Anything less will not stop this crap.

Oh GOD no. Here is what I wrote in my post:

"...We have at least one jackass in particular on this forum who buys in to the fact that ICE agents have to cover their face for the protection of themselves and their family because of leftists who doxx them, and likens them to Narco-State Death squads that are sent out to destroy the enemies of the regime..."

And in that Freeper's case, it wasn't an issue where I might have misinterpreted the person's point of view (as I think you may have misinterpreted mine). That person was clear in their posting that they thought mask-wearing by ICE agents was despicable and totalitarian,

My great state of Tennessee is changing. The influx of lefties is starting to take its toll.

How about pulling any tax payer funded armed security from guarding him and his family and see if he changes his tune?

That is the only, ONLY, way to stop this. But, our DOJ is run by a DEI hire who still owes her former employers.

Why is doxxing a one way street? That’s not right.

Freddy looks like he might actually enjoy some aspects of prison life and culture.

Total Marxist. Does not care a bit about Tennessee, only the Revolution. Without the votes of non-tennesseans, he wouldn’t stand a chance.

Obviously Freddie has aspirations of higher office, and this sort of thing is a resume enhancer for the democrat party.

For those talking about what Nashville has become, tell me about it! I’m a native who left in 2000, and when I went back a couple of years ago I couldn’t believe what my town had become.

Perhaps it is time to give him a dose of his own medicine.

It is WAY past time for the left to be repaid in kind.
