The liberal media has once again exposed its radical agenda, this time by openly justifying violence against federal law enforcement. Joyce Vance, a former Obama-appointed U.S. Attorney and MSNBC contributor, appeared on the network and shamelessly suggested that attacking ICE agents could be considered a “lawful right of self-defense.” Her inflammatory remarks came in response to ICE agents wearing masks—a commonsense measure to protect themselves and their families from left-wing extremists who have repeatedly targeted them.
During her MSNBC appearance, Vance argued:
“You know, the danger to law enforcement, quite frankly, is that when you’re masked like that and people don’t know who you are, someone might exercise their lawful right of self-defense to protect themselves, thinking they’re being kidnapped. So the notion that this is for law enforcement’s protection is utterly ludicrous.”
This twisted logic ignores the reality that ICE agents are facing unprecedented threats from violent leftist mobs. The left’s demand that ICE unmask isn’t about transparency—it’s about making federal officers and their families vulnerable to harassment, doxxing, and physical attacks. The liberal media, which spent years fearmongering about nonexistent Tea Party violence, is now openly encouraging assaults on law enforcement. The hypocrisy is staggering.
President Donald Trump has consistently stood with ICE and Border Patrol, recognizing their critical role in maintaining national security. While the left demonizes these brave men and women, Trump has reinforced their mission to uphold the law and protect American communities from criminal illegal aliens. The left’s rhetoric isn’t just irresponsible—it’s an incitement to chaos, designed to destabilize the country ahead of the 2024 election.

Ali Velshi, the MSNBC host, set the stage for Vance’s dangerous comments by asking:
“You’re a prosecutor, I want to ask you, there are legitimate reasons why some enforcement agencies, some police agencies, go undercover or, you know, do things in shadows to achieve certain things. I would assume that’s specific and, you know, it needs to comport with some laws.”
Vance’s response was a thinly veiled endorsement of vigilante violence, framing masked ICE agents as indistinguishable from kidnappers. This is the same media that spent years lecturing conservatives about “respecting the rule of law,” yet now they’re openly advocating for mob justice.
The left’s war on law enforcement is part of a broader agenda to dismantle America’s institutions. President Trump, in contrast, has made it clear that his administration will always back the men and women who keep our borders secure. While Democrats and their media allies stoke division, Trump remains focused on restoring order and defending the brave officers who risk their lives every day.
