Democrat Lawmaker Threatens To Put Law Enforcement Lives In Danger For Apparent Publicity Stunt

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said Wednesday that he will be exposing the identities of ICE agents in what appeared to be a shocking publicity stunt, threatening the lives and wellbeing of possibly thousands of law enforcement officers and their families.

ICE agents have been using face masks during operations to protect themselves and their loved ones from retribution by cartels and terrorist organizations, as well as other nefarious actors, due to a horrific 413% increase in violence against ICE agents, according to reports from Newsweek and Turning Point USA.

“People are out there taking photos of the names, their faces, and posting them online with death threats to their family and themselves,” Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons explained in a press conference in early June.

Jeffries Doesn’t Care About Protecting Americans

“Every single ICE agent who’s engaged in this aggressive overreach and are trying to hide their identities from the American people will be unsuccessful in doing that,” Jeffries said of the situation. (MORE NEWS: Seattle Mayor Appears To Blame Christians For Being Violently Attacked)

“This is America. This is not the Soviet Union,” he added. “We’re not behind the Iron Curtain. This is not the 1930s. And every single one of them, no matter what it takes, no matter how long it takes, will of course be identified.” It is fair to presume that if Jeffries has his way, ICE agents and their families would be at even greater risk of horrific violence, particularly from cartels and terrorist organizations.

Jeffries is among a growing cohort of Democrats who will likely throw their hats in the ring for the 2028 presidential election. We strongly encourage you to watch this clip of him and ask yourself if you’d feel safer in an America run by him, his friends, and his policies?

Keep Acting Local

Politicians you elect in your city, county, and state usually have a greater impact on your daily life than anyone in the federal government. During “off-years,” these local races send ripple effects throughout American communities. It is up to you to shape them.

It seems like every time we at Million Voices speak to lawmakers and their teams, they all tell us the same thing: if just 10 people in their district write letters about issues that matter to them, elected officials know they have a serious crisis on their hands. A thousand people could message that same lawmaker via email or social media, and it would mean nothing. But hand-written, or even printed and signed letters, will make your politicians take action (if they really care about your vote, that is).

Contacting your representatives should be easy, but there are myriad ways they can ignore your calls to action. That’s where we come in. 

Yes, Million Voices helps you with voter guides. Yes, we send letters from YOU directly to your elected officials because it’s the only way to guarantee they’ll listen to you. Yes, we publish data, articles, text messages, and help bridge the gap between education and civic action. But what do you want? Tell us today.

We want to make YOU the hero of our American story by giving you the tools you need to make a difference, from your local, state, all the way up to the federal level.

Join us in our mission to advocate for religious freedom, support fair and secure elections, and uphold the values that this great nation was built upon. Tell us what you want from the next four years, and we will fight to make it a reality … again!
