Following violent protests and riots against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, federal officials have strongly condemned the unrest, which took place in Los Angeles and New York City. The demonstrations, which erupted after criticism from Democratic politicians, led to multiple arrests and assaults on law enforcement officers. ICE operations in Los Angeles this week resulted in the arrest of 118 individuals, including those with criminal histories, while DHS reported a 413% increase in assaults on ICE officers. The Trump administration and DHS have called for an end to the violence, warning of legal consequences for those who attack federal agents.
