ICE Office Attacked in Washington State - Todd Starnes
An Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in Yakima, Washington was attacked over the weekend, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
A rioter threw a rock through the window and set a fire at the back of the building. See photos of the damage and destruction below.
“Local authorities are investigating this has an act of arson,” DHS said in a statement.
There have been no injuries reported at this time and the investigation is ongoing, they noted.
“It is unclear if our brave ICE law enforcement were the targets of these violent acts,” DHS said. But it’s hard not to imagine that ICE agents were the intended victims.
“From comparisons to the modern-day Nazi gestapo to glorifying rioters, the violent rhetoric of sanctuary politicians is beyond the pale,” DHS said. “Our ICE law enforcement is now facing an 830 percent increase in assaults against them. Secretary Noem has been clear: Anyone who seeks to harm law enforcement officers will be found and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
