In a stunning display of anti-law enforcement extremism, Oregon Democrat Rep. Janelle Bynum has branded Border Patrol agents as 'terrorists' following a shooting incident in Portland involving suspected violent gang members from the notorious Tren de Aragua criminal organization.

During Thursday's broadcast of CNN's 'OutFront,' Bynum admitted she doesn't know the details of the shooting but still felt comfortable smearing federal agents doing their jobs. 'We know that their presence is not welcome. And the way that they're engaging... is terrorism,' the radical congresswoman declared.

Here's what Bynum conveniently ignored: according to reports, Border Patrol agents were conducting a targeted operation when two suspected Tren de Aragua members allegedly attempted to run down the federal officers with a vehicle. The agents responded in self-defense, shooting the violent suspects.

Conservative commentator Andy Ngo exposed the real story on social media, posting: 'Portland-area congresswoman Janelle Bynum, a Democrat, has released a statement condemning the Border Patrol shooting of two suspected violent criminal Tren de Aragua members who allegedly tried to run down agents during a targeted stop.'

The response from patriotic Americans was swift and brutal. One Twitter user fired back: 'Nobody cares that they're not welcome. Being welcome is not a requirement.' Another social media post revealed that Bynum's official statement included the phrase 'Don't f*** with us' – showing just how unhinged these Democrat politicians have become.

This is exactly the kind of backwards, anti-American thinking that President Trump was elected to stop. While violent foreign gang members terrorize American communities, Democrats like Bynum attack the brave men and women trying to protect us.

Tren de Aragua is a Venezuelan prison gang that has spread across America thanks to the Biden administration's disastrous open border policies. These criminals are involved in human trafficking, drug dealing, and violent crimes – yet Bynum thinks Border Patrol agents are the real terrorists?

Patriots, this is why we need Trump's mass deportation plan more than ever. When elected officials side with foreign criminals over American law enforcement, our republic is in serious danger.

Who exactly is this Oregon representative? Are they even from a border state?

Nope, Oregon doesn't even share a border with Mexico. Easy to virtue signal from hundreds of miles away.

Absolutely disgusting! These Border Patrol agents risk their lives daily to protect our country and this is the thanks they get? Oregon Democrats have completely lost touch with reality.

Try living down here and see how fast your perspective changes about who the real heroes are.

Couldn't agree more. These agents are heroes, not terrorists.

I served 20 years in the military and I can tell you that our Border Patrol agents show incredible restraint and professionalism. Calling them terrorists is an insult to every law enforcement officer in this country.

We work closely with BP in our county and these men and women are some of the finest officers I know. They deal with dangerous cartels and gangs that most people can't even imagine.

This is exactly why we need to vote these radical Democrats out of office. They care more about criminals and gang members than the safety of American citizens and the brave officers protecting us.

I'd love to invite this representative to spend a week in my town and see what our BP agents deal with every single day. Gang violence is real and these agents save lives.
