Last week’s midnight raid in Chicago—where heavily armed federal agents stormed an apartment building, zip-tied citizens, and separated children from their parents—marks a turning point in the erosion of American liberty. What happened there is not policing, and it’s not patriotism. It is state terror on U.S. soil.
Reports confirm that citizens were detained without warrants, homes were ransacked, and families terrorized under the pretext of targeting a foreign gang. This same pattern has been repeated nationwide—Americans detained, assaulted, and even hospitalized by ICE and Border Patrol despite clear proof of citizenship. Now, with the Supreme Court allowing agents to detain people based solely on their appearance or language, the constitutional guarantees of the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments hang by a thread.
The same Department now circulating white-supremacist memes in official recruitment videos is the one breaking down citizens’ doors in the middle of the night. DHS’s own social media has embraced imagery tied to racist extremism—mocking the people it targets and feeding an ideology that glorifies persecution. When federal agencies echo the symbols and language of hate, they are no longer protecting the homeland—they are redefining it.
These actions betray every conservative principle of limited government and individual liberty. No federal agency should ever have the power to break into a citizen’s home without cause, deny access to counsel, or operate above the law. If we truly stand for freedom, then our government must be bound by the Constitution—not by fear or ideology.
I urge Congress to launch immediate oversight hearings into DHS and ICE operations, demand full public accounting for the Chicago raid and others like it, and suspend funding for any agency that refuses to abide by due process. Defending America means defending Americans.
