Vice President JD Vance delivered a fiery speech in Concord, North Carolina on Wednesday, ripping Democrats and radical left-wing media outlets for their dangerous rhetoric against law enforcement and ICE.
According to the White House, his visit was framed around “tax policy and the Trump Administration’s commitment to empowering state and local law enforcement.” But Vance quickly turned his remarks into a defense of the men and women serving on the front lines of America’s immigration crisis.
“I think that is the most disgusting thing. The very people who keep us safe ought to be honored, protected, and praised by Democrats and Republicans alike. It is time to stop the rhetorical assault on law enforcement,” Vance said.
Vance singled out California Governor Gavin Newsom for accusing ICE agents of being part of an “authoritarian government,” blasting the media for parroting those lies and emboldening unhinged leftists to commit violence.
“When Democrats, like Gavin Newsom, say these people are part of an authoritarian government — when the left-wing media lies about who they’re arresting and what their actual job is — what they’re doing is encouraging crazy people to go and commit violence,” Vance said.
“You don’t have to agree with my immigration policies. You don’t have to agree with Donald Trump’s immigration policies. But if your political rhetoric encourages violence against our law enforcement, you can go straight to hell and you have no place in the political conversation of the United States of America.”

Vance’s comments came just hours after a shocking attack on an ICE facility in Dallas, where 29-year-old Joshua Jahn opened fire from a rooftop, killing two migrants and wounding four others before turning the gun on himself.
DHS confirmed the gunman had anti-ICE messages carved onto the bullets he used.
Immediately after the attack, Vance posted on X:
“The obsessive attack on law enforcement, particularly ICE, must stop. I’m praying for everyone hurt in this attack and for their families.”
Former Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau mocked the Vice President, whining that Vance was “not a reliable source of information.”
But Vance wasn’t having it. When reports revealed the gunman’s bullets carried anti-ICE messaging, Vance slammed Favreau with the facts:
“The gunman had anti-ICE messaging carved on the bullets he used. What, precisely, did I get wrong, dipsh*t?”
