Philadelphia Sheriff Vows To Arrest ICE Agents, Labels Agency "Trump's New Army"

Sheriff Bilal supports DA Krasner's pledge to prosecute ICE agents committing crimes amid a 1,300% rise in assaults against agents, escalating local-federal tensions.

  • Earlier this week, Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal vowed to arrest any ICE agents who come into our communities to commit crimes and backed Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner's recent pledge to prosecute federal agents.
  • A day after the Minneapolis shooting, officials noted 37-year-old Renee Good was shot and killed by an ICE officer, with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem saying the agent acted in self-defense.
  • Appearing on Fox News Big Weekend Show Saturday, Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons dared the sheriff to `try and arrest` his agents, defending federal agent Jonathan Ross as having `took the appropriate action` and warning that `increased rhetoric` `makes nobody safe`.
  • The episode has escalated tensions, as the Department of Homeland Security said 2025 shows a massive surge in threats against Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, including assaults rising 1,300%, vehicle attacks 3,200%, and death threats 8,000%.
  • Calling ICE `fake`, Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal said agents are `made-up fake, wannabe law enforcement` and warned President Donald Trump as the `criminal in the White House` cannot protect them from jail.
