The left must stop labeling immigration officers as Nazis. This reckless rhetoric, pushed by Democrats like Newsom and amplified by media lies, fuels violence against law enforcement — and this deadly shooting in Dallas proves it. As Vice President Vance rightly pointed out, portraying officers as the Gestapo doesn’t just inflame debate — it inspires unhinged attacks. Disagreeing on policy will always exist, but the vitriolic hate must stop.
The MAGA White House must reflect on its own contribution to the current climate that fosters violence. Trump's repeated and harsh rhetoric about immigrants — branding them as "rapists," "murderers" and tattooed gang members — dehumanizes a vulnerable community, fueling broader hostility. In today's case, FBI Director Kash Patel's sharing of speculative details so early on in the investigation risks spreading misinformation and fanning the flames. If Trump truly wants to stop the violence, he should look in the mirror.
