It highlights a recent sniper attack on a Dallas ICE field office, noting that hostile language from these politicians may have contributed to creating a hostile environment that incites violence against ICE officers. Lawmakers such as Hakeem Jeffries, Dan Goldman, John Larson, Tim Walz, Pramila Jayapal, and Stephen Lynch are cited for making such comparisons but have largely ignored requests to apologize or retract their statements. The piece argues that these verbal attacks are akin to &#8220;sniper&#8221; tactics, as they aggressively target ICE agents from a distance without facing direct consequences. It further <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nd-coach-shuts-down-espn-for-making-victory-about-race\/\" title=\"ND Coach Shuts Down ESPN For Making Victory About Race\">criticizes media outlets<\/a> like NBC for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/media-trying-to-salvage-story-about-ivermectin-overdoses-in-oklahoma\/\" title=\"Media Trying To Salvage Story About Ivermectin Overdoses in Oklahoma\">publishing false stories<\/a> that demonize ICE, contributing to public misunderstanding and hostility.The author warns that such damaging rhetoric conditions the public and may encourage violent actions,emphasizing that the left&#8217;s refusal to take obligation suggests they accept or even endorse these dangerous outcomes.  <\/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<div>\n<p>Sniper attacks like <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/US\/multiple-people-shot-dallas-ice-field-office-source\/story?id=125887376\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the one<\/a> Wednesday at a Dallas, Texas ICE field office are uniquely terrifying. A sharpshooter picks off unsuspecting victims from a distance. The victims have no chance to defend themselves, and the sniper never has to look their victims in the eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, sickos on the left who have been comparing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers to the Nazi secret police, the Gestapo, are verbal snipers. From their social perch, they fire rancorous words meant to agitate the public.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Every single ICE agent who&rsquo;s engaged in this aggressive overreach, no matter what it takes, no matter how long it takes, will, of course, be identified. This is not the 1930s,&rdquo; Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., recently said while complaining about ICE agents wearing masks.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., compared ICE to the Gestapo several times, &ldquo;&hellip; Secret police, who are masked, who are intimidating, who are scaring people &hellip; with these Gestapo-like tactics.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>From the safety of television studios, or hiding behind layers of <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >low-level staff gatekeepers<\/a>, loudmouthed lawmakers attack from a distance, never meet their victims, and too often get away with it.<\/p>\n<p>The Federalist contacted Jeffries, Goldman, and numerous other lawmakers and asked if they intended to apologize for their words or if they had any statement they would like to make.<\/p>\n<p>Predictably, they ignored requests for comment. They don&rsquo;t get their hands dirty, or even a hair out of place, the way ICE agents do when they scuffle to handcuff a combatant. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sniper-class lawmakers like Rep. John Larson, D-Conn. keep cozy at their tightly controlled press conferences, while spewing, &ldquo;This is not Germany! That&rsquo;s the SS and the Gestapo! This is the United States of America! Unmask yourselves!&rdquo; But his office can&rsquo;t be bothered to respond to a request for an apology that could help turn our society toward civility or help turn down the temperature.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<p><span><\/p>\n<blockquote data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<div lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\n<p>Last month, Democrat <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RepJohnLarson?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RepJohnLarson<\/a> screamed about ICE agents being &#8220;the SS&#8221; and &#8220;the Gestapo.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While our ICE heroes work to free our communities from danger, Democrats work to endanger our ICE heroes. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/LYe5P93Wkr\">pic.twitter.com\/LYe5P93Wkr<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&mdash; Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RapidResponse47\/status\/1970888685139968350?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 24, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><\/span> <\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Heck no!

He didn&rsquo;t just wake up one day hating ICE. Antagonistic words from leftists have laid the groundwork for years.<\/p>\n<p>Antagonistic words like those from Democrat Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who said, &ldquo;Donald Trump&rsquo;s modern-day Gestapo is scooping folks up off the streets.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>And from Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., &ldquo;ICE agents, they are coming and kidnapping and disappearing people on the streets of the United States.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>And from Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass., &ldquo;When you compare the old films of the Gestapo grabbing people off the streets of Poland, it does look like a Gestapo operation.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>None of them responded to an invitation to apologize or provide a statement, either. Nor did NBC when The Federalist asked if it planned to apologize for publishing a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ph\/0OwiW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">piece initially claiming<\/a>&nbsp;ICE held a five-year-old child hostage to convince her a father to surrender and be taken into ICE custody.

But the more leftist propagandists speak it, the easier the lie rolls off the tongue.<\/p>\n<p>What would you do if you believed the Gestapo was coming for children?<\/p>\n<p>Words pierce like bullets: changing the culture, conditioning the people, activating the soldiers.
