"We will prosecute those who dox ICE agents to the fullest extent of the law. These criminals are taking the side of vicious cartels and human traffickers," said DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. "We won't allow it in America."
Flyers showing images of federal officers' faces with their names and home addresses have been posted around the ICE office in South Portland and in their neighborhoods. Additionally, criminals have trespassed on an ICE official's personal property, dumping trash on their front lawn and leaving behind a message that threatened the officer by name, according to DHS.
"We will prosecute those who dox ICE agents to the fullest extent of the law. These criminals are taking the side of vicious cartels and human traffickers," said DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. "We won't allow it in America."
The Department of Homeland Security is probing two Antifa-affiliated websites, "Rose City Counter Info" and "The Crustian Daily," both of which are responsible for publishing the "names, pictures, and personal addresses of ICE officers" on their websites.
The Post Millennial has extensively reported on Portland Antifa's "Rose City Counter-Info" blog over the past several years. The website is where the anarchist extremist group issues claims of responsibility for attacks carried out in the Pacific Northwest.
The federal agency said that such actions could place officers and their families at serious risk, particularly from "highly sophisticated" violent gangs, such as MS-13 and Tren de Aragua, designated foreign terrorist organizations.
Evidence included in the DHS memo shows trash and a threatening message left on an ICE agent's front lawn
The memo comes as the ICE office located at 4310 SW Macadam Ave in Portland has been under siege by anarchist rioters and other anti-ICE groups for over a month. More than 21 individuals have been federally charged for alleged crimes committed during the 24/7 Antifa occupation outside the facility, which began on June 7.
Charges have included assault on federal law enforcement officers with a deadly weapon, arson, blinding officers with high-powered lasers, violating lawful instructions, and setting fires near the facility after using devices to confine federal agents and personnel within the ICE office.
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement has reported a 700 percent increase in assaults on ICE agents since President Trump entered the White House in January and ordered mass deportation operations.
"Prominent politicians are actively encouraging these attacks by demonizing federal law enforcement, refusing to cooperate with lawful immigration enforcement, and even assaulting law enforcement themselves," the press release stated.
DHS also took aim at the City of Portland for its self-designated sanctuary city status, saying that the policy leaves their own communities vulnerable to crime and violence, and creates an unsafe environment on the ground during the ongoing riots, as federal and local law enforcement are unable to coordinate their activities.
President Trump's Border Czar Tom Homan announced earlier this week that he would be planning a visit to Portland, asserting that the ICE would not be "bullied" by black clad agitators into stopping its immigration enforcement efforts.
