Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) appeared on the Sean Hannity show this week to address the growing threats of violence from the left over deportations being carried out by ICE. Cruz noted that it is not just street activists, but members of Congress who are making this situation worse, pointing to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), who said he wants to unmask ICE agents despite threats to their lives.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu is also mentioned, for comparing ICE agents to Nazis.
Cruz offers a few other examples to remind us that this has been going on for years now.
Partial transcript via Breitbart News:
Senator, it sounds to me like they have no problem on the left putting these guys’ lives in jeopardy. That is outrageous to me, and I frankly think we should pass legislation against it.“Yeah, look, that kind of rhetoric is really dangerous, and it’s really harmful,” Cruz replied. “And we’ve seen Democrats for a number of years now, number one, be openly hostile and antagonistic to the police, call for abolishing the police, call for abolishing ICE. There you’ve got Michelle Wu, the Democrat mayor of Boston, comparing ICE agents to Nazis. I mean that is hateful rhetoric. And you’ve got Hakeem Jeffries — this is the Democrat leader in the House calling for unmasking, identifying these ICE agents. It is not at all subtle what he is calling for. And this is a party that embraces violence. They don’t believe in law and order. And that first clip you played where their view of immigrants is they’re here just to wipe their ass.”He continued, “I mean, that’s disgusting. But it shows the contempt they have. They don’t care about these people. These are the same Democrats that didn’t care for the last four years that every day, we had little boys and little girls being sexually assaulted, physically assaulted by human traffickers, no Democrat could be bothered to care. They didn’t care about the Americans being murdered, about the women being raped by illegal immigrants because to them, it’s all about power.
