In response to violent anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles last Saturday night, FBI Director Kash Patel stated that “if you assault a law enforcement officer, you’re going to jail—period.”

“Your background or the cause you claim to represent are irrelevant,” Patel emphasized to Fox News Digital. “The FBI will step in if local authorities fail to support the officers in uniform.”

President Donald Trump issued a Presidential Memorandum to deploy 2,000 National Guardsmen to Paramount, California after immigration authorities in the area were attacked with rocks, stones, and concrete, leading to shattered vehicle windshields of government vehicles.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said protesters would not slow ICE agents down, and cautioned rioters.

“If you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” Noem wrote in an X post.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said the agency is seeking information regarding the identity of those throwing rocks at vehicles conducting critical law enforcement operations, noting “it is only a matter of time.”

“One of the perpetrators in this video is wearing a helmet, and we’re going to use our investigative tools to locate the individual,” Bongino wrote in an X post. “I strongly suggest you turn yourself in, it’s only a matter of time.”
