WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released new statistics on violent threats against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers.
ICE agents now face an 8,000% increase in death threats against them, according to an October 30 press release from DHS. "Our ICE law enforcement is now facing an 8,000% increase in death threats against them while they risk their lives every single day to remove the worst of the worst," said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin.
"From bounties placed on their heads for their murders, threats to their families, stalking, and doxxing online, our officers are experiencing an unprecedented level of violence and threats against them and their families. Make no mistake, sanctuary politicians are contributing to the surge in violent threats and assaults on our officers through their repeated vilification and demonization tactics, including gross comparisons to the Nazi Gestapo. This violence against law enforcement must end."
In recent days, ICE officers' family members have reportedly been doxed and threatened, and had bounties placed on their heads for their murders. Recent examples of the violent threats that have been made against ICE agents include:
Earlier in October, DHS announced the arrest of Eduardo Aguilar, an illegal immigrant from Mexico residing in Dallas, Texas, after he posted on TikTok in Spanish soliciting the murder of ICE agents. Aguilar's post from October 9, 2025, called for "10 dudes in Dallas with determination who aren't afraid to [two skull emojis]," and offered "10k for each ICE agent."
In Texas, an ICE officer's spouse received a call saying, "I don't know how you let your husband work for ICE, and you sleep at night. F*** you, f*** your family. I hope your kids get deported by accident. How do you sleep? F*** you. Did you hear what happened to the Nazis after World War II? Because it's what's going to happen to your family."
A separate voicemail left on an ICE employee's phone was also discovered this month. The caller allegedly said, "I hope every one of those lawless c*** you call ICE officers get doxed one by one."
On October 24, ICE also became aware of a potential threat to officer safety stemming from a Facebook post by a man named James Adrian Warren. On October 22, the individual shared posts that threatened ICE officers. The post specifically targets the Ferndale, Washington ICE office, and he calls ICE "Nazis" and "The Gestapo." The man also said he will begin observing, tailing, recording, and reporting ICE employees to "make life harder for ICE here in Whatcom County."
Secretary Noem confirmed that these threats will "not stop or slow down" ICE from carrying out President Donald Trump's deportation operation of illegal immigrants who have committed crimes or come into the country illegally. "ICE and our federal law enforcement partners will continue to enforce the law. And if you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."
The public can report doxing and harassment against ICE officers by calling 866-DHS-2-ICE (866-347-2423) or by completing ICE's online tip form.

I would say that most of this is fomented by the likes of the Soros backed Tides foundation and all the other one world leftist money being spent to buy fake demonstrators, and then they become convinced that they should become violent.

Of course! These guys are the front line in a war between Freedom and marxism which is going on right now in America that nobody is talking about! The marxist news media supports their marxists backers! This is happening exactly how Obama and Soros planned. We cannot lose this war!
