February 23, 2026
“ICE SHOT A MOM IN THE FACE…
ICE KIDNAPPED A 5-YEAR-OLD…
ICE EXECUTED A MAN IN BROAD DAYLIGHT…
THIS AGENCY IS OUT OF CONTROL.”
That’s how James Talarico, Texas state rep & activist described what’s happened under U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement during the Trump immigration crackdown.
Mothers dead.
Children traumatized.
Communities living in fear.
And politicians still call this “law and order.”
HOW MANY MORE FAMILIES HAVE TO DIE?

English Script:
James Talarico: Well, ICE shot a mom in the face. I kidnaped a five year old boy, Liam Ramos, and brought him all the way here to Texas. ICE executed Alex Petty in the street in broad daylight, shooting him in the back. So this agency is out of control. We have to impeach Secretary Kristi Noem. We’ve got to haul these masked men before Congress so the world can see their faces. I would not vote to give this agency any more money. I would take that money that they’ve put into this agency and put it back into our health care, where it belongs.
