US Attorney Bill Essayli’s Perfect Response to Dem Rep Who Asked People to Report ICE Activity – RedState
The Democrats did a horrible thing, inciting people on the left to oppose ICE’s actions.
As I pointed out earlier, they forget (or don’t care) the very critical point that their actions can help criminals, some of whom can be very dangerous people. It also endangers agents and agitators. But left-wing agitators seem only to care about fighting President Donald Trump. They think they are right when in reality they couldn’t be more wrong.

Democratic Rep. Jimmy Gomez (CA-34) was reporting ICE activity and encouraging others to report their activity to the phone number he posted. This tries to help people avoid federal law enforcement.
ALERT: My office has received reports of a heavy ICE presence near 12th & Maple in DTLA in the Fashion District. Officers are actively canvassing the area.

First Assistant United States Attorney for the Central District of California, Bill Esssayli, had a great response that everyone should take to heart.

Dial a number
If everyone calls and gives all kinds of inaccurate information, it will neutralize this line and thwart the agitators. It was clear that many people on X intended to do just that.

So Gomez’s efforts are going to fail badly, and this phone number is going to be very, very busy.
Democrats should have simply supported law enforcement and put the interests of their citizens ahead of their own political agenda and anti-Trump animosity.
