A Portland leftist agitator is finally facing the music for his violent assault on a federal immigration officer, pleading guilty to charges that could land him behind bars for two decades. Robert Jacob Hoopes admitted in court Wednesday to aggravated assault of a federal employee with a dangerous weapon after hurling a large rock at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer in June 2025.
This is what real accountability looks like, Patriots. After years of watching radical Democrats coddle Antifa thugs and anti-ICE extremists, we're finally seeing justice served under the Trump-Vance administration.
The attack occurred during one of the many violent confrontations that have become Portland's calling card, as leftist militants continue their war against federal law enforcement. While Democrats spent years demonizing ICE agents as the enemy, brave federal officers have been putting their lives on the line to secure our borders and enforce immigration law.
Biden's Legacy of Lawlessness Comes Home to Roost
Remember when Portland was the poster child for Biden's America? When radical mayors stood by while Antifa burned federal courthouses and attacked federal agents night after night? This assault is the direct result of years of Democrat politicians emboldening these domestic terrorists with their anti-ICE rhetoric.
Hoopes now faces up to 20 years in federal prison for his violent tantrum against the rule of law. That's what happens when you assault federal agents doing their job – something the anti-American left never seemed to understand.
Under President Trump's leadership, we're seeing a renewed respect for law enforcement and actual consequences for those who think they can attack federal agents with impunity. The days of catch-and-release justice for left-wing extremists are over.
This case sends a crystal clear message to every Antifa thug and anti-ICE radical still lurking in Portland's shadows: attack our federal agents, and you'll face the full weight of American justice. Twenty years is a long time to think about your poor life choices.
How many more of these violent leftists will think twice before assaulting federal officers now that there are real consequences again?
