Lefty PAC tries pinning Dallas attack on ICE

Lefty PAC that poured millions into electing ‘squad’ members tries pinning Dallas attack on ICE


A PAC that has steered millions of dollars toward electing far-left Democrats is blaming Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for a deadly shooting at its Dallas, Texas, facility, saying the loss of life occurred “in ICE custody.”

The anti-ICE sniper who fired indiscriminately at agents and hit multiple detainees on Wednesday is another example of how ICE is “killing immigrants,” the Justice Democrats PAC told supporters in a Thursday email one day after the attack. The PAC has spent millions of dollars in recent years on helping to elect Democrats such as Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, the first of a far-left faction in Congress known informally as “The Squad.”

Joshua Jahn, 29, fired indiscriminately from a nearby building at the Dallas facility, killing at least one detainee and wounding two others before fatally shooting himself, authorities said. The shooter left “anti-ICE” written on a bullet casing and writings that said he wanted to “give ICE agents real terror,” investigators found. The Department of Justice (DOJ) has called the shooting “the very definition of terrorism.”


Justice Democrats did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.



“Since [President] Donald Trump took back the White House and launched his cruel mass-deportation agenda, at least 17 people have died in ICE custody,” the PAC wrote Thursday. Its list included “two detainees who were cruelly shot and killed by a gunman at a Dallas ICE facility yesterday.” Officials initially said two detainees were killed, then clarified that one died and two were in critical condition.

“How sick for politicians to be fundraising over a horrific and politically motivated shooting against our brave ICE law enforcement,” Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin told the DCNF. “These politicians are fanning the flames of division with their lies, demonizing, and dehumanization.”
