It highlights two life-saving incidents: at New York\u2019s JFK Airport, an on-duty ICE agent saved a one-year-old who stopped breathing after being handed to the officer, performing the Heimlich maneuver and reviving the child; and off-duty ICE agents who saved a four-year-old from drowning in a hotel pool. DHS officials,including Secretary markwayne Mullin,are quoted praising the agents for rapid,decisive action that safeguarded the child and the family. The article frames these rescues as evidence of ICE\u2019s essential public-safety work and uses <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/us-federal-court-refuses-request-to-dig-into-jurors-cellphone\/\" title=\"US Federal Court Refuses Request to Dig into Juror\u2019s Cellphone\">social-media posts<\/a> and DHS statements to counter what it claims are dishonest portrayals by opponents. It also argues that demonizing ICE undermines the safety and security of Americans,while suggesting migrants and illegal immigration pose ongoing challenges.  <\/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\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?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<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>As Democrats and their media puppets recklessly defame and incite violence against Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, these federal agents are working hard to protect the public.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, an ICE agent saved the life of a one-year-old child experiencing a medical emergency at John F.

At JFK Airport, an ICE officer saved the life of a one-year-old who stopped breathing during a medical emergency in the airport chaos. DHS described the scene: CCTV showed a passenger in a TSA Precheck line holding his baby as the child went limp, causing panic, while the father called for help. An ICE officer on duty heard the commotion and hurried to assist. The father handed the child to the officer, who evaluated the situation and began the Heimlich maneuver; within a few seconds the child started breathing again. Medical personnel later checked the child, who recovered quickly, and the child was able to fly later that day. DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin praised the officer for acting quickly, saying that without the intervention, the outcome could have been tragic. This incident marked the second time ICE agents recently saved a child, following off-duty ICE agents who rescued a four-year-old in a Minnesota hotel pool in February, performing CPR until the child regained consciousness. These acts of heroism counter the left-leaning portrayal of ICE as heartless; in reality, the agents\u2019 work helps safeguard national security and public safety. The piece also notes another headline: a Honduran migrant with multiple prior removals is charged with murder after allegedly pushing an 83-year-old U.S. Air Force veteran onto subway tracks in New York City. The message concludes that while you don\u2019t have to support ICE, reckless defaming or inciting violence against its officers harms the many Americans who appreciate what they do<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2584418,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Ben-Working-Feature-Image-2026-03-27T065653.783.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[6176,8364,3813],"class_list":["post-2584417","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-heroism","tag-ice","tag-immigration"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Ben-Working-Feature-Image-2026-03-27T065653.783.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2584417","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2584417"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2584417\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2584422,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2584417\/revisions\/2584422"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2584418"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2584417"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2584417"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2584417"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
