In a disgraceful display of contempt for law enforcement and the rule of law, Democrat Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-MA) compared American ICE agents to Nazis and the Gestapo during a congressional hearing Thursday on so-called “sanctuary” policies.
The hearing was meant to address the very real and deadly consequences of open-border extremism.
Screaming into the microphone like a political activist rather than an elected official, Lynch accused ICE of committing “abductions.”
The congressman also equated immigration enforcement with Nazi leader Adolf Hitler’s secret police.
“It does look like a Gestapo operation! Lynch shouted during a wild tirade on Capitol Hill.
“That’s exactly what it was like!”
This is not hyperbole.
A sitting U.S. Congressman compared brave men and women enforcing America’s immigration laws — many of them veterans — to literal Nazi stormtroopers.
And he wasn’t alone.
Lynch joins other far-left Democrats, like Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who also smeared ICE as the Gestapo.
This rhetoric signals an ongoing and disturbing line of attack from the radical wing of the Democratic Party that wants open borders, zero enforcement, and total amnesty.
“Trump isn’t trying to protect us, he’s trying to divide us,” Lynch raged, claiming he was “fighting today’s Nazis!”
By “Nazis,” he apparently meant U.S. law enforcement officers who are keeping American communities safe by doing their jobs.
Lynch even invoked his father’s military service during World War II, claiming that his dad would be proud that he’s now “fighting the Nazis.”
He continued his meltdown by lashing out at immigration agents arresting criminal illegal aliens in violation of federal law.
WATCH:
While Democrats cry foul and smear ICE as fascists, Republicans at the hearing confronted reality head-on.
Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) blasted New York Governor Kathy Hochul for turning her state into a sanctuary for violent criminals — criminals who aren’t just breaking immigration law, but committing horrific crimes against American citizens.
In a fiery exchange, Stefanik detailed shocking cases:
An illegal alien who violently assaulted a minor
Another who burned a sleeping woman alive on the New York City subway
“You are not advocating on behalf of these victims,” Stefanik declared. “You are shielding illegals. Even in your opening statement, you prioritize putting illegals first.”
And there it is.
The contrast could not be clearer: Republicans are fighting for law and order, protecting American citizens and victims of violent crime.
Democrats? They’re calling federal law enforcement Nazis and protecting those who shouldn’t even be in the country.
This isn’t about compassion – It’s about control.
Democrats are willing to endanger Americans, destroy border security, and demonize our brave ICE agents if it helps them keep power and secure votes.
Lynch’s Nazi comparison isn’t just offensive, however.
It’s a dangerous escalation in rhetoric from a party increasingly detached from reality and determined to punish anyone who enforces immigration law.
Meanwhile, President Trump continues to lead the charge to secure the border, restore ICE’s mission, and end the chaos created by Biden-era “sanctuary” madness.
The American people deserve better than this.
They deserve safety, sovereignty, and sanity, not wild-eyed rants comparing our heroes to Hitler’s goons.
