Assaults on Officers in Illinois Follow Democrat Governor’s Anti-ICE Rhetoric | The Gateway Pundit | by Gregory Lyakhov

The tension surrounding federal immigration enforcement in Illinois has escalated to alarming levels this week.

In two separate episodes, individuals with criminal backgrounds have turned their vehicles into weapons against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in the Chicago metropolitan area.

These incidents surfaced amidst a notable 1,000% spike in assaults across the nation—an increase that federal authorities attribute directly to the vehement anti-ICE stance promoted by Illinois’ leadership, notably Governor J.B. Pritzker and Chicago’s own Mayor Brandon Johnson.

The first of these incidents transpired in Norridge, Illinois, when Miguel Escareno De Loera, an undocumented individual from Mexico, deliberately collided with an ICE vehicle twice, before abandoning the road and crashing into a stop sign.

Just hours later, in Bensenville, another undocumented person, Widman Osberto Lopez-Funes from Guatemala, also targeted ICE agents by slamming his car into them during a focused enforcement operation, before darting into his home to evade capture.

Both men had entered the United States illegally, bypassing the necessary inspection by immigration authorities, and now face serious charges for assaulting federal law enforcement personnel.

These violent attacks could have easily had catastrophic outcomes.

“We are fortunate that our law enforcement officers escaped unharmed due to the heinous behaviors of these offenders,” commented DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. She emphasized the connection between these violent acts and the antagonistic political climate in Illinois, stating: “This is the inevitable result when figures like Governor Pritzker and Mayor Johnson incite animosity towards ICE and provoke illegal aliens to defy law enforcement.”

The statistics are sobering. ICE reports that assaults on its officers have surged over 1,000% in recent months, with criminals increasingly utilizing vehicles as weapons against those enforcing the law.

ICE reports assaults on its officers have reached a staggering 1,000% increase—criminals are employing cars as weaponry against federal agents.

When elected officials legitimize animosity towards ICE, they embolden criminal elements to pursue violent acts. Federal agents deserve our protection, rather than being rendered as targets.

This uptick corresponds with aggressive initiatives by Democratic leaders to weaken ICE through sanctuary laws, a failure to comply with detainer orders, and an overall narrative that portrays federal officers not as guardians of public safety but as the antagonists.

ICE agents are sworn to uphold immigration laws and to safeguard communities by removing dangerous individuals hiding among the populace.

Yet, they are increasingly regarded as targets—not only by those operating outside the law but also by politicians advocating defiance against federal oversight.

The normalization of hostility towards ICE directly fosters a climate where violent acts become more feasible.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has reiterated that anyone who assaults law enforcement will face rigorous prosecution. However, punitive measures after violent acts do little to ensure the safety of federal agents undertaking their duties.

Governor Pritzker and Mayor Johnson might perceive their sanctuary strategies as politically advantageous, but they come with real-world consequences.

Criminalizing law enforcement is not a means to safeguard immigrant communities; it jeopardizes the safety of officers, undermines the judicial system, and ultimately exposes all Americans to greater risks.
