57 Times Sick, Unhinged Democrats Declared War on Law Enforcement – The White House

National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day: Honoring ICE and Law Enforcement

On National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, the Trump Administration takes a moment to salute the courageous individuals within ICE and the broader law enforcement community who risk their lives to safeguard America. Meanwhile, the Radical Left Democrats appear to have taken a different approach, ramping up their barrage of scathing and incendiary rhetoric against these frontline defenders, labeling them as Nazis, terrorists, and Gestapo agents, all while seemingly encouraging their fervent supporters to resort to violence.
