Dem lawmaker allegedly gave violent mob ICE agent’s business card

Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-CA) is being accused of taking part in a “violent mob of protestors” where he “doxed” an ICE agent.

On Friday, the congressman took to X with a post decrying the “unnecessarily aggressive and militarized tactics” of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents “against local farm workers and peaceful protesters.” He called the enforcement actions “appalling,” but according to ICE, Carbajal’s behavior was more appalling than any federal agent.

Look:

“Yesterday in Carpinteria, I witnessed ICE agents using unnecessarily aggressive and militarized tactics against local farm workers and peaceful protesters. It was appalling. This is not how we keep our communities safe. As a Member of Congress, I have the legal right to oversee federal operations. Yet, I was denied entry,” he whined.

In a responding post, ICE called out the lawmaker’s conduct and revealed how far he was reportedly willing to go to express his disgust with federal law enforcement.

“Rep. Salud Carbajal was part of a violent mob of protestors attempting to obstruct federal law enforcement as they executed a criminal search warrant at a marijuana facility. He cites ‘peaceful’ protestors, when in fact these rioters were launching rocks at officers, injuring at least one ICE employee who was left bloody,” the post reads. “According to agents on the ground, the congressman doxed that same ICE employee by sharing his business card with members of the violent mob. THIS is precisely the rhetoric that has led to orchestrated attempts to murder officers and a 700% increase in officer assaults. May the congressman’s constituency always remember he chooses violence over the rule of law.”

X users were outraged by the elected official’s behavior:
