Anti-ICE student protesters at Kansas school attack pro-Trump students

Viral video showed two students at Olathe Northwest High School being attacked by other students while holding Trump flags during the anti-ICE walkout. One nearby anti-ICE student held a sign reading “End ICE brutality” as the students were attacked.

The father of one of the students, Bogdan Zaslavsky, said school staff witnessed the incident and did not intervene. He posted the video to Facebook showing the altercation, where he explained that neither his son nor the other student required medical treatment for their injuries, but they were “definitely bruised up.”

“I’m VERY PROUD of my son and his friend for standing up for their beliefs and defending themselves,” Zaslavsky wrote on social media. “When getting back from being attacked, [he] realized that his [friend’s] Jeep had been vandalized, keyed, and dented up all over.”

The video was later reposted by Libs of TikTok over the weekend, tagging the school’s principal, Chris Zuck. After the video gained significant attention, Zuck reportedly locked his X account, which remains protected.

“If only he protects students the same way he protects his account!” Libs of TikTok posted in response.

Last Tuesday, the Olathe Public Schools Board of Education sent a statement to parents regarding ICE activity within the community.

“In our Olathe Public Schools, our primary mission is to educate every student in a safe, inclusive, and supportive learning environment,” the statement read, according to KCTV. “When we say all students, we truly mean every child who walks through our doors - regardless of their background, ability or circumstance.”
