From Breitbart: Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) was criticized for appearing to suggest that people would be justified in shooting masked U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.
“What is really the major problem in this country today is the fascism in our streets,” Nadler said. “The attacks on American citizens, by masked hoodlums. If you were attacked by a masked person, you might think you were being kidnapped. You’d be justified in shooting the person — to protect yourself.”
“We see people being shot, for what? For driving a car?” Nadler added. “We see people — we see these …. ICE goons break into people’s homes without a warrant. We see them drag out a man, an American citizen in his underwear without even permitting him — in the snow, without even permitting him to get dressed.”
The Trump Rapid Response team posted a video of Nadler’s atrocious remarks and wrote, “Here is crazed lunatic @RepJerryNadler likening immigration enforcement to “attacks… by masked hoodlums”: “If you were attacked by a masked person, you might think you were being kidnapped. You’d be justified in shooting the person.” SICK!!”

Vice President JD Vance blasted Nadler, writing, “Jerry Nadler is one of the highest ranking Democrats in the House of Representatives and he is openly calling for people to shoot federal law enforcement. This is despicable behavior from an elected official and I’m sure the leftwing media will cover it extensively.”

Remember when these guys said they would tone down the rhetoric after Charlie got murdered?
