Democrats want to unmask ICE officers to cause them violence and harm

Let’s stop pretending that the crusade to unmask Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers is anything other than a nefarious attempt to cause them violence and harm. 

For months now, Democrats have had an obsession with demanding that ICE officers remove masks during their operations. Multiple Democrats, including Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA), passed largely unenforceable laws requiring ICE officers not to wear masks in their cities and states. They’ve provided myriad reasons for this unmasking, but truthfully, there is only one reason for it: so ICE officers can be harassed and harmed.

Consider the inflammatory rhetoric Democrats have used to demonize illegal immigration enforcement operations. From labeling ICE, Border Patrol, and Department of Homeland Security officials as, mentioned above, Nazis, fascists, and the Gestapo to parroting false news stories, Democrats have engaged in a propaganda campaign to discredit federal law enforcement officers and characterize these American citizens as enemies of the population.
