Meet 25-year old U.S. Citizen Leonardo Garcia Venegas
These are Trump’s ICE agents attacking him and detaining him.
They took his REAL ID and told him it was fake.
Turns out he is a U.S. Citizen. These guys are monsters.

Protecting the border and citizens is complex Trump’s approach was strong but fair, unlike today’s chaos and open borders.

Would you call it fair if ICE did this to you?

Why not tell the whole story? He was obstructing justice.
[Quoted tweet]
FACT CHECK. During a targeted worksite operation, this individual attempted to obstruct and prevent the lawful arrest of an illegal alien. He physically got in between agents and the subject they were attempting to arrest and refused to comply with numerous verbal commands.
Anyone who actively obstructs law enforcement in the performance of their sworn duties, including U.S. citizens, will of course face consequences which include arrest.

Mistakes like this show why we need smarter, stronger border enforcement.

Can't they find some actual, real criminal immigrants?

We must pray!
The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is upon me, for the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to proclaim that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed. [Isaiah 61:1-3]

Next, they could tell him that his “REAL ID” was canceled? Or revoked?

@eg1701
I’m not convinced these individuals are legitimate agents—either that, or they’re hired help who don’t follow the rules. And of course, Trump can always claim he knew nothing about it.

Enforcement is critical, but mistakes demand accountability. ICE operates under strict protocols to protect Americans—when errors occur, they must be addressed swiftly. The Laken Riley Act mandates detention for criminal illegal aliens charged with burglary, theft, or assault, prioritizing public safety.
REAL ID compliance is non-negotiable, yet this incident highlights procedural failures that undermine trust. Border security requires precision, not overreach. Past administrations left chaos with catch-and-release and sanctuary cities, forcing today’s aggressive measures.
Every enforcement action must balance vigilance with respect for citizens’ rights. Fix the process, don’t abandon the mission.

If this is the story I think it is, this is false. They were in the middle of an arrest of a different illegal alien, and this man tried to interfere.

Deport him anyway

@MohiniWealth
This incident occurs amidst a broader context of increased immigration enforcement, where ICE agents are targeting undocumented immigrants, but mistakes in identifying citizens can lead to wrongful detentions, as seen in Venegas' case.
