Exclusive–Wilcox: Demonization of ICE Agents Is a Recipe for Violence

As President Donald Trump works to clean up America’s long-standing problems with illegal immigration, the entrenched forces that brought us this mess are pushing back with predictably overheated rhetoric. While that type of response is nothing new, this attempt is so reckless that it may cost innocent people their lives.

Fox News’ Bill Melugin reported that attacks on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have surged by nearly 700 percent in 2025. This alarming rise in violence is not a spontaneous phenomenon but a direct consequence of certain politicians and activists who have vilified ICE agents, painting them as villains rather than public servants.



The use of masks by ICE agents, which critics like Jeffries and Goldman decry, is a direct response to the doxxing and death threats they face. Agents wear masks to protect themselves and their families from being targeted online, a necessity in an era where personal information can be weaponized with a few clicks. Stripping agents of this protection, as Goldman’s legislation seeks to do, is not about accountability—it’s about exposing them to further danger.

This escalating hostility cannot continue without tragic consequences. Someone—whether an agent, a civilian, or a detainee—will likely get killed if this trajectory persists. Politicians who demonize ICE, push to unmask agents, or tacitly support tools that obstruct enforcement bear responsibility for this violence.

Exactly. And these people need to be charged! Political office should not, does not, exempt a person from the consequences of criminal actions.
