The deputy director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is posing a critical question to voters, especially those affiliated with the Democratic party. This comes in response to Representative Adelita Grijalva (AZ-07) making bold allegations of misconduct by ICE agents during an operation at a restaurant near Tucson, Arizona. More details on this controversy will follow.
As reported by RedState:
Her allegations were swiftly countered by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin. Utilizing straightforward logic, as highlighted by my colleague Sister Toldjah in her Friday article, McLaughlin debunked Grijalva’s claims in a post on platform X:
Despite this, the congresswoman persisted, releasing a second video where she is seen vocally demanding the agents to leave the premises:

She said the community members stopped the officers “because they were afraid they [the agents] were taking people without due process.”
“I was here — this is like the restaurant I come to literally once a week — and was sprayed in the face by a very aggressive agent, pushed around by others, when I literally was not being aggressive,” Grijalva said in a video posted to social platform X. “I was asking for clarification, which is my right as a member of Congress.”
Her claims were easily debunked by DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin with common sense, as my colleague Sister Toldjah added in her Friday piece, writing in an X post:
She was in the vicinity of someone who *was* pepper sprayed as they were obstructing and assaulting law enforcement. In fact, 2 law enforcement officers were seriously injured by this mob that @Rep_Grijalva joined.
Presenting one’s self as a “Member of Congress” doesn’t give you the right to obstruct law enforcement.
The congress critter only doubled down by posting a second video, in which she can be seen shouting at agents to leave:
ICE is a lawless agency under this Administration – operating with no transparency, no accountability, and open disregard for basic due process.

Earlier in the week, ICE Deputy Director Madison Sheahan appeared on Fox News with host Laura Ingraham, to talk about how the Afghan refugee who shot the WV National Guardsmen in D.C. was allowed to enter the U.S. without proper vetting by the Biden administration:

Sheahan told Ingraham that the people responsible for safeguarding our homeland under Biden “let everyone into this country, and none of them were vetted. And now, Sec. Noem and ICE are trying to clean this up.”
She called this “just another example of somebody who hates America, that comes to this country as a terrorist.”
But it was during a sit-down on Saturday during Fox News’ Fox & Friends Weekend show, that the ICE official posed a crucial question to anyone who is considering pulling the lever for Dems in the midterms:
Our @ICEgov officers are out every day arresting the worst of the worst — violent murderers, rapists, gang members and more.
Why are the Democrats choosing to protect these people instead of the American people? pic.twitter.com/95Ajdd4APm

“This is the classic move from the Democrats,” she said, “where they want to interfere with law enforcement. At what point in this country did we get to the point where you can [do that], and nothing happens to you?”
“Our law enforcement officers are out arresting the worst of the worst, they’re arresting gang members, murderers, and rapists,” Sheahan added.
“If the Democrats choose to protect that group of people instead of the American people,” she said, “I think…the Democrat voters need to decide what they truly believe in.”
That’s the exact question Republicans need to be asking, over and over, between now and November 2026.
