Nadler Says You Would Be Justified Shooting Agents

Rep. Nadler defended self-defense rights amid protests over ICE tactics and recent fatal shootings, citing abuses that fuel public fear and anger, including warrantless home entries.

  • Democratic Representative Jerry Nadler claimed that people would be justified in shooting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents if they believed they were under attack from masked individuals.
  • Nadler referred to the attacks by ICE agents as 'fascism in our streets' and described incidents where they forcibly entered homes without a warrant, stating, 'We see them drag out a man, an American citizen, in his underwear.'
  • ICE agents have experienced a significant rise in violence, with attacks increasing by 1,300% and vehicular assaults up 3,200%, as reported by the Department of Homeland Security.
  • Vice President JD Vance and Donald Trump Jr. criticized Nadler's remarks, calling them 'demented' and 'despicable behavior from an elected official' in response to his comments on ICE agents.
