When Ramming ICE Became a Liberal Trend: Over 100 Radicals Have Tried to Run Over ICE and Border Patrol Officers; ICE and CBP Officers Face Unprecedented Surge in Vehicle Ramming Attacks

When Ramming ICE Became a Liberal Trend

Over 100 radicals have tried to run over ICE and Border Patrol officers.

In October, a politically connected illegal alien was charged with ramming ICE vehicles in Los Angeles. He was shot and wounded by an ICE officer, but after a grand jury indicted the illegal alien, an Obama judge threw out the charges.

The case was all too typical of how commonplace car attacks on ICE and immigration law enforcement had become and how sanctuary cities had conspired to legalize them.

The death of a radical leftist activist accused of attempting to ram ICE personnel with her SUV in Minneapolis, may be the first official fatality, but it’s also the inevitable result of normalizing car attacks, promoting them as a tactic and then protecting their perpetrators from the consequence. Radical judges and activist groups can protect an activist from the law, but not from a bullet, and driving a 5,000 lb SUV at armed men was always going to end one way.

Democrat officials, including Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, have tried to pretend that the fatal shooting showed that ICE is violent and “out of control.” The media has barraged viewers with that same false narrative using misleading and out of context scenes.

But there is a pattern to ICE shootings. Every ICE shooting in the last 4 months involved individuals trying to ram ICE personnel with their vehicles just like the Minneapolis case.

The media will never discuss that pattern, but it explains what happened in Minneapolis.

Even though only 41% of vehicles on the road are SUVs, many activist vehicular confrontations with ICE have involved SUVs. Why SUVs? Because they’re large and they’re favored by radicals as a tool for pursuing, blocking and confronting ICE vehicles. While fleeing illegal aliens tend to use smaller cars, activists in convoys harassing and blocking ICE invariably use SUVs.

And the confrontations between the convoys and ICE are increasingly turning violent.

Car ramming attacks, like those in Paris, New York or New Orleans, were initially a tool of Islamic terrorists before being adopted by various unstable people and finally leftists. Jihadists preferred heavier vehicles, trucks and pickup trucks, much as the anti-ICE activists adopted SUVs because of their bulk, weight and ability to block federal law enforcement access.

The initial car attacks against ICE involved illegal aliens and then fringe Hispanic nationalist activists, but by the time a white woman was shot in Minneapolis, vehicular confrontations, like reading Heather Cox Richardson and watching Jennifer Welch, had become mainstreamed among liberals. It stopped being seen as dangerous and violent and became trendy.

By late November, the Department of Homeland Security was reporting 99 car ramming incidents involving ICE and Border Patrol personnel with 4 attacks in just one single day..

The number now stands at over 100. --->READ MORE HERE

ICE and CBP Officers Face Unprecedented Surge in Vehicle Ramming Attacks:

Driven by far-left rhetoric against law enforcement vehicle ramming attacks against DHS law enforcement have more than doubled this year

The men and women of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have been facing a surge in vehicle attacks, driven by hateful rhetoric from sanctuary politicians, leftist activists, and the mainstream media. There have been nearly 100 vehicular attacks this year, more than double the amount during the same time last year. These attacks not only pose a potentially fatal risk to officers but also endanger the public.

“We are seeing the results of the Left’s constant demonization of the men and women of law enforcement. Dangerous criminals – whether they be illegal aliens or U.S. citizens – are turning their vehicles into weapons to attack ICE and CBP,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “Still, the brave men and women of DHS will not be deterred and will continue arresting the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens. Anyone who attacks law enforcement, especially using their vehicles, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

Since January 20, there have been 99 vehicle attacks against federal law enforcement, more than doubled compared to the 47 attacks faces during the same period last year.

• There have been 71 vehicular attacks against CBP since January 20, compared to 45 vehicle assaults during the same period in 2024 – a 58% increase. 

• There have been 28 vehicular attacks against ICE since January 20, compared to just 2 such incidents in the same period of 2024 – a 1,300% increase.
