Trump says ICE agents have his full support to defend themselves following California clashes

CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, JUL 12 – Assaults on ICE officers have surged nearly 700%, prompting President Trump to authorize full arrest powers for agents facing violent protests during enforcement operations.

  • Federal immigration agents blocked a road during a raid on July 10, 2025, at two Glass House Farms sites in Camarillo and Carpinteria, California.
  • The raid followed President Trump’s reversal of a June 14 ICE enforcement pause on farms and his granting ICE total authorization to protect itself and arrest attackers immediately.
  • The operation, supported by National Guard troops using military vehicles, detained workers as part of a child labor investigation, with Glass House facilitating legal representation for those detained.
  • Trump expressed his determination to prevent any future assaults on vehicles transporting law enforcement officers after ICE agents were targeted with thrown rocks and bricks during a dramatic increase in attacks on officers.
  • The administration intends to persist with ICE raids across the country as part of an unprecedented effort to deport undocumented immigrants, despite facing protests, political disagreements, and ongoing legal challenges.
