US President Donald Trump condemned the deadly shooting at the ICE Field Office in Dallas, Texas, calling the act “despicable” and highlighting that the shooter reportedly wrote “Anti-ICE” on his shell casings.
"This is despicable! The Brave Men and Women of ICE are just trying to do their jobs, and remove the “WORST of the WORST” Criminals out of our Country, but they are facing an unprecedented increase in threats, violence, and attacks by Deranged Radical Leftists ," he said through a post on Truth Social.

Trump attributed the violence to what he described as ongoing attacks by left-leaning Democrats, who, he said, have frequently criticized law enforcement, called for the dismantling of ICE, and compared its officers to “Nazis.”
He urged Democrats to “stop this rhetoric against ICE and America’s law enforcement” and cited ongoing threats from domestic extremist groups, referencing ANTIFA, which he said has already been designated a terrorist organization. He also announced plans to sign an executive order aimed at dismantling domestic terrorism networks.
The US president reaffirmed his administration’s priorities of supporting law enforcement, securing borders, deporting "violent illegal criminals", and addressing domestic extremism, framing the measures as necessary to protect officers and maintain public safety.
Two detainees were killed and a third injured when a gunman opened fire at a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas on Wednesday, federal authorities reported.
The shooter, identified as Joshua Jahn , 29, later died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Law enforcement officials said bullets recovered near Jahn’s body bore “anti-ICE” messages, and the attack appeared to target detainees at random.
The shooting occurred at the same ICE field office that recently received a bomb threat, and authorities are investigating whether the two incidents are connected. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed that the location is a field office, not a detention center.
