In recent reports, a shocking trend has emerged that deeply impacts our safety and security. The Department of Homeland Security has revealed an alarming 830 percent increase in assaults against ICE agents. This surge can be traced directly to the reckless policies of the current administration, which have catered to those who undermine our laws and values. For hard-working, blue-collar Americans, particularly those over 60 who have contributed to this nation’s strength and prosperity, these statistics do not merely represent numbers; they reflect a dangerous shift in how our country is being governed.
The recent incident involving Bass Ndiaye, an illegal immigrant from Senegal, serves as a stark example. Ndiaye was apprehended and released under the Biden administration, only to later attempt a violent assault on ICE officers and fellow detainees using scissors. Thankfully, due to the swift action of these brave officers, this situation was defused before severe harm could occur. However, the implications of this incident resonate even more profoundly. It is not just about one illegal immigrant’s actions; it is about the dangerous environment created by neglecting our borders and disrespecting our law enforcement.
This current climate fosters a perception that our borders are open which emboldens those who wish to harm Americans. While we have always supported the brave men and women of ICE, it is clear they are under increased threat due to the rhetoric surrounding immigration and law enforcement in America. For many of you, the thought that our nation’s safety is compromised is heart-wrenching. You have spent your lives building a better country for the generations that follow, and yet there are forces working tirelessly to dismantle those efforts through division and chaos.
Under President Trump, we witnessed a strong commitment to securing our borders, respecting our law enforcement, and prioritizing the safety of citizens above all else. In contrast, the current administration’s policies reflect a disregard for those ideals, resulting in incidents like Ndiaye’s actions. This should serve as a wake-up call for every American who values the safety and integrity of our great nation. It is time for citizens like you to stand up, demand accountability, and ensure that the voices of hard-working Americans are not forgotten. Your loyalty and dedication to our country are paramount, and it is crucial that we unite against the dangers that threaten our future.
