While Los Angeles burns in a week-long wave of violent, left-wing riots, Democrat leaders have finally decided to speak out about “domestic terrorism.” But instead of condemning the criminals looting stores, torching cars, and attacking police, they’re pointing the finger… at ICE agents.
Yes, seriously.
Federal officers with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have been carrying out legal deportation arrests across the sanctuary city of Los Angeles—raids that are wildly popular with voters nationwide. But that didn’t stop California Democrat Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove from stepping in front of CNN’s cameras and declaring that ICE agents are domestic terrorists.
“This is not immigration policy. This is domestic terrorism,” she told CNN host Brianna Keilar, who even looked stunned at the claim.
Apparently, in the warped worldview of Democrats, arresting criminal illegal aliens—many of whom have gang ties or violent felony records—is now the moral equivalent of planting bombs or hijacking planes.
And she wasn’t done. Kamlager-Dove went on to spin a fantasy in which masked ICE agents are snatching grandmothers and children from Korean grocery stores without warrants or identification—completely ignoring the fact that ICE follows strict protocols and targets dangerous individuals who violate U.S. immigration law.
“Yes, I would argue you are terrorizing communities,” she added.

But the numbers say otherwise.
A recent CBS News poll shows most Americans support Trump’s mass deportation efforts, with the president enjoying a +8 approval on immigration enforcement. Another poll by RMG Research found that 58% support ICE’s mission, and 52% back deploying the National Guard to restore order. In other words: the American people are done with open borders—and they’re siding with ICE, not the lawless mob.
Democrats? They’re doubling down.
While President Trump deploys federal agents to clean up the disaster caused by decades of open-border policies, Democrats like Kamlager-Dove are attacking the people doing the job. Some have gone even further:
- House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has openly called for exposing ICE agents’ identities—effectively putting targets on their and their family member’s backs.
- LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) was indicted on three federal charges after she physically assaulted ICE agents outside a detention center. She now faces 17 years in prison.
This isn’t a party that wants a conversation. It’s a party that wants to unleash chaos and dismantle America’s ability to enforce its own laws.
Calling ICE agents “domestic terrorists” for doing their jobs? That’s not just reckless rhetoric—it’s incitement.
And it proves, once again, that today’s Democratic Party is fully aligned with lawlessness.
The American people see what’s happening. The question is: how much more will they tolerate before they demand accountability?
