This directive comes after Trump witnessed protesters throwing rocks and bricks at ICE officials. He criticized the attacks as a sign of disrespect for law and order and instructed Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Border czar Tom Homan to empower ICE and other law enforcement officers to act against these aggressors, whom he called &#8220;slimeballs.&#8221; The article also mentions recent surges in assaults on ICE agents, including a notable July 4 attack on an ICE facility in Texas. Trump has consistently defended ICE amid criticism and violence targeting the agency,emphasizing the need to protect officers and maintain enforcement efforts.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Trump authorizes law enforcement to arrest &lsquo;SLIMEBALLS&rsquo; attacking ICE<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2171670\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Donald Trump\">Donald Trump<\/a> on Friday empowered all federal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/police\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"law enforcement\">law enforcement<\/a> officers to immediately arrest any violent protesters attacking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/ice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Donald Trump\">Immigration and Customs Enforcement<\/a> officials or their vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I am on my way back from Texas, and watched in disbelief as THUGS were violently throwing rocks and bricks at ICE Officers while they were moving down a roadway in their car and\/or official vehicle,&rdquo; Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/trumpdailyposts\/status\/1943816566140813606?s=46&amp;t=WCjN9b0p46x4JtDWW5vQBw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"wrote on Truth Social\">wrote on Truth Social<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/immigration\/3467394\/state-troopers-nabbing-illegal-immigrants-florida-alligator-alcatraz\/\">A day with Florida state troopers nabbing illegal immigrants for &#8216;Alligator Alcatraz&#8217;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/premium\/3463617\/deadly-force-review-police-shootings\/\">A new book on police shootings tries to answer what were until very recently the biggest questions in public life<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/3467891\/fox-nation-releases-butler-under-fire-part-2-with-victims-family\/\">FOX Nation releases &#8216;Butler Under Fire, Part 2&#8217; with victim&rsquo;s family<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;Tremendous damage was done to these brand new vehicles.

I never want to see a car carrying a Law Enforcement Officer attacked again,&rdquo; the president said, adding that authorization for arrest and incarceration of these individuals is immediately granted.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has repeatedly defended ICE amid the intense backlash that immigration officers face from Democratic lawmakers and violent protesters.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, he slammed Sens. Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Alex Padilla (D-CA) for introducing a bill requiring law enforcement officers to display visible identification when engaged in immigration operations. ICE faces criticism for allowing its agents to wear masks, which the agency says protects their identities from getting doxxed.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;People are out there taking photos of their names, of their faces, and posting them online with death threats to their family and themselves,&rdquo; acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said in Boston last month. &ldquo;So, I&rsquo;m sorry if people are offended by them wearing masks, but I&rsquo;m not going to let my officers and agents go out there, put their lives and put their family on the line because people don&rsquo;t like what immigration enforcement is.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>ICE has recently seen a 700% surge in assaults on its officers, as the Trump administration continues carrying out its mass deportation agenda against illegal immigrants.<\/p>\n<p>On July 4, an armed group ambushed an ICE facility in Alvarado, Texas. The group defaced vehicles with anti-ICE graffiti and then shot one officer in the neck after luring officials out of the building.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/immigration\/3468677\/democrats-clash-ice-marijuana-farm-raid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"DEMOCRATS CLASH WITH ICE OVER CHARACTERIZATION OF MARIJUANA FARM RAID\">DEMOCRATS CLASH WITH ICE OVER CHARACTERIZATION OF MARIJUANA FARM RAID<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>About 11 individuals were charged for their involvement in the attack.
