POWDER KEG EXPLODES: Anti-ICE Rhetoric Sparks Deadly Ambush on Border Patrol in Texas

As McAllen turns into a flashpoint for anti-ICE violence, Stephen Miller exposes the real reason Democrats want to dismantle immigration enforcement.

It was a powder keg waiting to EXPLODE.

Democrat Party rhetoric against ICE and Border Patrol finally boiled over....and turned violent.

Agents were ambushed in McAllen, Texas today, just as Tom Homan had warned.

But Stephen Miller just EXPOSED the irrefutable reason Democrats are at war with ICE and enforcing immigration laws.

What happened in McAllen, Texas, on Monday wasn’t just another isolated shooting.

It was the culmination of months of inflamed Democrat rhetoric finally crossing a dangerous line.

Authorities say a 27-year-old man, equipped with a rifle and tactical gear, ambushed Border Patrol agents at the entrance of their sector annex.

The attacker, later identified as Ryan Luis Mosqueda, exchanged fire with agents and local police before being killed.

According to the Department of Homeland Security, two officers....including one shot in the knee....and a Border Patrol employee were injured in the chaos.

This was the direct result of relentless anti-ICE messaging from the Democrats and the media, that have portrayed Border Patrol agents as villains rather than public servants.

But just hours later, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked about Democrat calls for violence which led to this very incident.

A reporter brought up the ambush: citing radical Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal’s recent comment that she gets “inspired” when activists obstruct ICE, he asked whether the administration wanted Democrats to moderate their language.

Karoline Leavitt’s answer was direct and unapologetic.

“We certainly call on Democrats to tone down their rhetoric against ICE and Border Patrol agents, who again, are everyday men and women,” she said.

It wasn’t just a call for civility, but for understanding.

All Americans have a job to do.

“I would encourage it AOC and other Democrats to actually meet with the United States Border Patrol.”

“These are honorable Americans who are just simply trying to do their job to enforce the law. They go home to their families every night just like we all do, and they deserve respect and dignity for trying to enforce our nation's immigration laws and to remove public safety threats from our communities.”

Leavitt confirmed that the White House was following developments in McAllen closely, working with federal agencies to understand exactly what led to the shooting.

The Border Czar saw this coming a mile away.

For Tom Homan the news felt grimly familiar.

Appearing on Fox News, he reminded viewers he’d warned this could and WOULD happen.

No one listened to him, he was sounding the alarm for months.

“I’ve been warning about this for two months,” he said.

“The last time I did your show, Laura, we talked about it. I also talked about it on Hannity’s show. I said if the rhetoric didn’t decrease significantly, it’s going to end up with loss of life.”

Homan described an environment where officers felt increasingly targeted.

“It’s going to end up with use of force, either against a protester turning criminal, or against an ICE or Border Patrol agent. Someone’s going to be seriously, seriously injured if not killed.”

He also pointed a finger at how the media and politicians treated those warnings.

“Of course the media attacked me, called me fear monger Homan, said I was threatening that someone’s going to die,” he said.

He named names, calling out high-profile Democrats for fueling the anger.

“I’ve been around a long time. You’ve got members of Congress—Jayapal comparing me to terrorists. AOC says we’re out there violating people’s civil and constitutional rights. Jeffries running his mouth about the Gestapo.”

He didn’t try to soften the bottom line.

“All this ramped-up rhetoric is going to cause a situation where someone loses their life. We saw that today. I was hoping I’d be wrong....but I wasn’t.”

And he warned it might not be the last. This part was scary.

“I’ll tell you something else. It’s not the end. Unless we stop the hateful rhetoric against ICE and Border Patrol, comparing them to Nazis, there’s going to be more situations like this.”

Moments later, another Trump official joined the conversation, delivering one of the starkest assessments of what is behind this climate of hostility toward immigration enforcement.

Speaking with Jesse Watters, Stephen Miller argued that the shooting wasn’t some unpredictable tragedy....it was the DIRECT consequence of what he described as an “insurrectionist movement” within the Democratic Party itself.

“It’s happening because, Jesse, there is an insurrectionist movement in the Democratic Party that is inspiring domestic terrorism against ICE.”

He cited specific actions by Democratic leaders as proof of an orchestrated campaign to undermine federal authority.

“When you have the mayor of Los Angeles mobilizing agitators, mobilizing the mob against ICE, saying that federal law enforcement has to leave her city....that’s unconstitutional.”

“Federal law is the supreme law of the land. You can’t nullify it. You can’t secede from it. This is the United States of America.”

Miller explained how this rhetoric wasn’t just encouraging protests.....it was fueling direct threats to agents and their families.

“These insurrectionist Democrats are daily engaging in rhetoric that incentivizes, encourages, and foments violent terrorist attacks on ICE and ICE officers.”

“ICE officers are being doxed. Their families and children threatened. Their home addresses posted online. They’re being subjected to a campaign of terror by these radical Democrats.”

However, it was Miller’s closing words that struck like a thunderclap from the heavens.

None of this was an accident. There was a reason for all of the anarchy.

The ENTIRE Democrat war against ICE and immigration enforcement was about pursuing chaos by design.

“Why Jesse, what is this all about?” he asked.

What followed was Miller in his absolute prime.

“This is the central struggle in the West. The Democratic Party's objective is to flood the West with millions upon millions of illegals from the developing world, from the poor nations of the world, the failed to states of the world, the collapsing states of the world, believing that leaving in so doing, they will collapse the West, they will collapse of the middle class, they will collapse the population that has lived here before the migrants came.”

He didn’t see this as misguided compassion, but as an intentional plan to seize power amid destruction.

“In so doing, they think in a rubble of that they can rule. They can sit on top of the pile of ashes.”

Miller challenged viewers to consider why Democratic leaders are so committed to policies that strain schools, hospitals, and cities beyond the breaking point.

“Ask yourself this, why is it that Democrats are so insistent that unlimited numbers of illegals from countries that are incapable of managing their own affairs come here?”

He described the consequences as unavoidable and severe.

“What has he done to our schools? What has it done to our hospitals? What has it done to just traffic in our cities? Every issue that affects our quality of life, public safety, drugs, crime, education, health care—are all exacerbated, worsened and undermined by mass illegal immigration.”

And he ended with a challenge to Americans to see who’s really under threat.

“ICE officers are heroes and they need the support of the American people. President Trump is liberating our towns just as he promised, just as the American people overwhelmingly voted to give him a mandate to do just five months ago.”

The violence in McAllen is a warning shot of what happens when politics trades responsibility for rage.
