Military to Defend ICE With ‘Full Force,’ Trump Declares Against Antifa, Terrorists

President Donald Trump is done playing defense. On Saturday, he made it official the full might of the United States military is now on standby to defend Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities and the cities that have been turned into war zones by radical left-wing extremists.

Taking to Truth Social, Trump announced he had authorized Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to deploy “all necessary troops” at the request of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. The goal? To defend Portland and any ICE facility “under siege” from the violent mob tactics of Antifa and other domestic terrorists.

“I am also authorizing Full Force, if necessary,” Trump declared. “Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

The move comes after a disturbing escalation of violence against federal immigration authorities:

• A guillotine was erected outside a Portland ICE facility a chilling symbol of the Left’s hatred for law enforcement.

• An ICE office in Dallas was attacked by a gunman who killed one illegal immigrant and wounded two others before taking his own life. Authorities said his goal was to inflict “terror” on ICE agents.

• Assaults on ICE agents have skyrocketed 830% in the past year. Many agents now mask their faces during arrests for fear of being doxxed or targeted at home.

These are not peaceful protests these are coordinated attacks by militant anarchists bent on undermining federal authority. And Democrats? They’re not only silent they’re encouraging it.

California Governor Gavin Newsom just signed a law banning ICE agents from wearing masks. That’s right while federal officers face real threats to their lives, Newsom is more worried about political optics. DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin called the move “despicable” and “a flagrant attempt to endanger” law enforcement.

Meanwhile, President Trump is doing what this administration has always done best backing the blue and standing up to chaos. As he put it earlier this week, the ongoing violence in cities like Portland is the work of “professional agitators and anarchists.” He’s absolutely right.

Let’s be clear: This isn’t about protests. This is about the Left actively trying to destroy our borders, eliminate law enforcement, and unleash mayhem across America. It’s the same radical mob that torched police stations in 2020 and now threatens federal agents for enforcing immigration law.

President Trump is drawing the line in the sand. With the full force of the military now behind ICE, the message is unmistakable: lawlessness will no longer be tolerated, and our officers will no longer be sacrificed on the altar of political correctness.

It’s about time.
