The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released video of the nearly-100-strong violent mob that attacked Border Patrol agents in Chicago with rocks and fireworks on October 23.
The video clearly shows out-of-control leftists attacking the agents, with one woman telling the agents their daughters would be raped, a rioter hurling a rock at Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino, and another goon slashing a tire on a government vehicle.
To protect themselves during the immigration raid in Chicago’s Little Village, the agents deployed tear gas.
Yesterday, DHS spokesman Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News that murder threats against agents have increased 8,000 percent.
October 23 Attack
The video opens with drone footage of gang members, possibly the Latin Kings, boxing in a Border Patrol vehicle, then running down an alley to change license plates and retrieve “high-powered weapons.”
“Yo, f**k yo mamma, f**k yo daughters, I hope they get touched,” shouted a rioter, likely a future astronaut or Democratic Party leader:
F**k all of ya’ll n**gas. Ya’ll not even supposed to be arresting nobody over here, bro. N**ga. Everybody got f**king guns, n**ga. F**k you, f**k you, f**k you, f**k you, f**k all ya’ll. … All ya’ll daughters are gonna get raped.
The mayhem in the video begins shortly thereafter, when rioters confront the agents.
On a nearby roof, an individual points at agents, possibly one of the “spotters” the gangs have deployed to track Border Patrol, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and other federal agents.
A rioter threw a “liquid object” at agents, then Bovino deployed tear gas to disperse the increasingly violent mob. The mob fired fireworks, then tossed two rocks at Bovino. The video closes with a probable gang member vandalizing a Border Patrol vehicle with Latin Kings graffiti. Another goon slashed its back right tire.
“A large crowd of 75-100 rioters surrounded law enforcement who set up a perimeter after agents were boxed in by a large box truck,” DHS reported on X:
Rioters then shot at agents with commercial artillery shell fireworks.
A Border Patrol transport van carrying illegal aliens attempting to get to the safety of the perimeter was then attacked. Border Patrol agents were able to secure the van and get it into the perimeter. The mob of rioters grew more hostile and violent, advancing toward agents and began throwing rocks and other objects at agents, including one that struck Chief Greg Bovino in the head.
The violent mob didn’t listen to the repeated warnings from agents to retreat, and so “riot control measures were deployed.”
Last week’s confrontation wasn’t the first in Chicago. In early October, authorities arrested two fanatics for ambushing and assaulting border agents in Chicago. One of the two tried to run over an agent, who defended himself by firing his weapon five times. A federal magistrate judge promptly freed the criminals.
Death Threats
Illegal aliens and their subversive supporters are growing ever more desperate in their attempts to stop the deportation of illegal aliens, most of them dangerous criminals.
Thus, McLaughlin told Fox News’ Bill Melugin, federal agents are “facing an 8,000 percent increase in death threats against them while they risk their lives every single day to remove the worst of the worst.”
The threats include bounties for their murder and the murder of their families, along with stalking and doxing online, she said.
“Make no mistake, sanctuary politicians are contributing to the surge in violent threats and assaults of our officers through their repeated vilification and demonization tactics, including gross comparisons to the Nazi Gestapo,” she continued, referring to many top Democrats, most notably far-left Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker.
Frighteningly, the bounties include those issued by the Mexican drug cartels. They have created a three-tiered system of rewards, DHS reported:
$2,000 for gathering intelligence or doxxing agents (including photos and family details).
$5,000–$10,000 for kidnapping or non-lethal assaults on standard ICE/CBP [Customs and Border Protection] officers.
Up to $50,000 for the assassination of high-ranking officials.
Authorities have arrested two Mexican illegals who solicited the murder of ICE agents. One is a top Latin Kings member in Chicago. The other was arrested near Dallas. They posted their threats on social media and offered $10,000 for murdering an agent. That number comports with the cartel murder bounty.
As The New American reported weeks ago, citing ABC7 in Chicago, ICE facilities there have been “have been surveilled with detailed layouts, diagrams and photos posted to what is described as an anarchist website.”
The website featured photos and names of agents.
Attack in Dallas
On October 15, the Justice Department indicted two of the leftists who attacked an ICE facility in Prairieland, Texas, as Antifa terrorists.
That attack was a full-scale military-style raid.
Authorities said the attackers possessed more than 50 firearms.
The Antifa cell’s plan, the federal indictment alleges,
was to destroy U.S. government property and commit acts dangerous to human life intended to influence the policy of the U.S. government and affect government conduct by intimidation and coercion.
“I’m done with peaceful protests,” one member wrote in an encrypted chat.
