Trump grants ICE new powers to do 'whatever's necessary' after rock attacks during raids
dailymail ^ | July 11, 2025 | James Cirrone

I am on my way back from Texas, and watched in disbelief as THUGS were violently throwing rocks and bricks at ICE Officers while they were moving down a roadway in their car,' Trump posted Friday evening on Truth Social.

'Therefore, I am directing Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, and Border Czar, Tom Homan, to instruct all ICE, Homeland Security, or any other Law Enforcement Officer who is on the receiving end of thrown rocks, bricks, or any other form of assault, to stop their car, and arrest these SLIMEBALLS, using whatever means is necessary to do so,' he continued.

'I am giving Total Authorization for ICE to protect itself, just like they protect the Public. I never want to see a car (sic) carrying a Law Enforcement Officer attacked again!'

I am seeing videos of more cars slowly plowing through protesters who are blocking traffic, and trying to damage cars and hurt people. Fear is a mighty influencer to the car driver who remembers Reginald Denny being pulled from a car, and brain smashed with a brick.

Time to kick ass! Saw the video, surprised to see the ICE folks flee. The scumbags throwing rocks were most likely illegal, would have been a nice haul if they were arrested at the scene. Too bad the thug that was firing a gun at them wasn’t taken out on the spot.

Nope...sorry....time for them to get their asses kicked or shot. Your solution is way too akin to “Timeout”. It can be circumvented by the political Left finding ways to fund/support these scumbags and thus mitigating the pain.

I don’t disagree however you have to understand that this is exactly what those behind this wants.

They want the optics of bodies in street, blood on the ground. They want the image of police killing the young and the old (and once the shooting starts don’t be surprised if some of the “protesters” are shooting into the protesters.

What we are seeing is not home grown protesters but professionals from hot spots around the world who know how to fire up the locals and encourage acts of violence against the police.

We are at war and the Democrats invited the soldiers into our nation.

I have no crystal ball but it is clear this will not end well for all concerned.

woulda been nice to see agents hop out of the vehicles with fully automatic non lethal bean bag guns and mow the protestors down to size! While not lethal- they can cause the criminal to never want to challenge another agent!

The No Nuts fella who was hit in the crotch will attest to that

On the larger operations they need to have a second team whose purpose is to focus on arresting the rioters. And those rioters should be charged federally.

“They want the optics of bodies in street, blood on the ground.”

I find their terms to be acceptable.

I hope some of that new DHS money goes toward ‘non-lethal’ weapons that can immobilize these jerks.

The left has been involved in a one sided civil insurrection against the right for years....

The right has chosen to ignore it and let it happen, under the pretenses that laws and justice apply equally, and that we still live in a civil society where that applies.

Because of that, the country gets the blm, and antifa riots and protest for micheal brown, george floyd, etc. We get the nightly protest that occurred at ferguson, the burning and looting of minneapolis, the nightly siege that occurred at the federal building in seattle, etc.

Under biden, we also got the invasion of the illegal aliens, with possibly 20 million under biden alone, plus the 15-20 that were already here, means the illegal alien population is probably 30-40 million people - or about 10% of the u.s. citizen population.

There’s been a war going on for years...

The right has chosen not to play, but it’s being pushed by the left into having to face the fact that it’s been happening, and something needs to be done about it.

The response from the RINOs and their enablers: “But...but...if we fight back they’ll call us names and they won’t like us!

Generally you can use lethal force to defend yourself IF you’re in imminent danger of death or serious injury or if you’re defending against a forcible felony being committed against you or is about to be committed against you (except in New York when you have to be mortally wounded and retreat as far as you can go before you can use pepper spray.)

Seems to me we have to face the fact that we’re already in Civil War 2, and once again it’s the Democrats fighting to keep their slaves (illegal aliens this time) versus the federal government under a President they hate and want to kill.
