OUTRAGEOUS: Schumer Says ICE Agents 'Don't Belong in Our Cities' After Minneapolis Shooting

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer just revealed exactly where Democrats stand when it comes to protecting Americans versus protecting illegal immigrants – and Patriots, it's not with us.

Speaking on MSNBC's "The Briefing" Wednesday, Schumer declared that "We should not have ICE agents patrolling our streets" and claimed they "don't belong in our cities" while demanding an investigation into a Minneapolis shooting involving immigration enforcement.

Let that sink in, folks. The same Democrats who spent four years screaming about "law and order" under Biden are now telling federal law enforcement agents they have no right to enforce immigration law in American cities.

"What an incredible and stupid thing to say. They are Law Enforcement and have more right to be there than Schumer does," responded Twitter user @marian_clough, perfectly capturing what millions of Americans are thinking right now.

This is President Trump's mass deportation program in action – exactly what 76 million Americans voted for in November. ICE agents are doing their jobs, removing dangerous criminals who shouldn't be here in the first place. And Schumer's response? Attack the good guys.

Classic Democrat Playbook: Protect Criminals, Attack Cops

While Schumer demands investigations of ICE agents, where's his outrage over sanctuary cities that harbor violent criminals? Where are his calls to investigate the failures that allowed dangerous illegals to roam free under the Biden regime?

The timing is no coincidence either. As @ForbesTVNews noted, Schumer is also attacking Trump over the Epstein files, asking "What The Hell Is Donald Trump Hiding?" – a desperate attempt to distract from his own party's immigration disaster.

Patriots across social media aren't buying Schumer's anti-ICE rhetoric. The @Trump_Force1 account highlighted his comments, showing exactly how out of touch Democrats remain with law-abiding Americans who want our immigration laws enforced.

Here's the truth: ICE agents have every right to be in our cities – more right than the illegal criminals they're removing. President Trump promised mass deportations, and he's delivering. No amount of Democrat whining will stop this administration from putting Americans first.

Chuck Schumer can cry all he wants – the Trump deportation machine is just getting started.

Our border patrol agents deal with this stuff every single day down here in Texas. These men and women risk their lives while politicians like Schumer attack them from their ivory towers in Washington.

As a retired police officer, I can tell you that ICE works closely with local law enforcement to keep dangerous criminals off our streets. Schumer's comments are not only wrong but dangerous.

Thank you for your service! It's insane how politicians throw law enforcement under the bus.

This is exactly the kind of expertise we need to hear more of in these discussions.

Last time I checked, enforcing federal immigration law was still legal in ALL American cities, including Minneapolis.

UNBELIEVABLE!

I'm all for immigration reform and treating people humanely, but we can't just ignore federal law enforcement. There has to be a middle ground here that doesn't involve vilifying ICE agents who are just doing their jobs.

Wait, what exactly happened in Minneapolis? The article mentions a shooting but I'd like to know more details about what led to this incident.

Schumer has completely lost touch with reality. ICE agents are literally doing their job to protect American citizens and he's demonizing them for it?

Exactly! These are the same people who took an oath to serve and protect our communities.
