President Trump has given ICE officers full power to arrest violent protesters after a raid at a cannabis farm in Camarillo California turned into chaos. The order came after rocks were thrown at agents and at least one person fired a weapon. Federal vehicles were damaged as protesters blocked roads and hurled objects at officers. ICE agents used gas and fired less-than-lethal rounds to control the crowd. A migrant worker fell from a rooftop and died during the raid. Several others were critically injured.

Trump said he would not allow federal officers to be attacked again. “I never want to see a car carrying a Law Enforcement Officer attacked again,” he added.

Trump wrote on Truth Social that he was shocked watching agents being attacked. He said ICE should never be disrespected while enforcing law and order. “Therefore I am directing Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and Border Czar Tom Homan to instruct all ICE Homeland Security or any other Law Enforcement Officer who is on the receiving end of thrown rocks bricks or any other form of assault to stop their car and arrest these SLIMEBALLS using whatever means is necessary to do so,” Trump posted.

Chaos Sparks National Guard Deployment And Legal Battles

Trump deployed Marines and National Guard troops to Los Angeles last month after similar violence broke out. An appeals court has allowed the troops to remain while a legal challenge plays out. The raid in Camarillo ended with 200 migrants arrested. Protesters waved Mexican flags and tried to block roads near the fields. The FBI is offering $50,000 for help identifying the gunman.
