Dem Rhode Island lawmaker threatens ICE: 'Your day of reckoning will come m----- f------'
Rhode Island Democrat Enrique Sanchez threatened ICE with a profane "day of reckoning'"post, escalating his history of calling agents "Nazi Gestapo thugs."
A Rhode Island lawmaker who previously referred to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers as "Nazi Gestapo thugs" said "your day of reckoning will come mother------" in a charged social media post aimed at the agency tasked with carrying out the Trump administration's crackdown on illegal immigration.
State Rep. Enrique Sanchez, a Democrat, directed his anger at ICE in a post Wednesday on X decrying its enforcement tactics.
"Fighting and dealing with ICE since last year has f----- me up in the head after trying to protect and defend hundreds and hundreds of our community members in Providence and across Rhode Island. Your day of reckoning will come mother------," he wrote. "I swear to god."
Fox News Digital has reached out for comment to Sanchez, ICE and the Department of Homeland Security, along with the Rhode Island Democratic Party.
Allyn Meyers, chair for the Rhode Island GOP, told Fox News Digital that the party condemns Sanchez's remarks.
"Sanchez’s inflammatory rhetoric, including his explicit vow of a 'day of reckoning, is reckless and dangerous.
"We must never forget that ICE agents have been targeted for assassination and violence simply for doing their jobs and enforcing our nation’s laws," said Meyers. "Rhetoric like this does nothing to protect communities; it puts the lives of dedicated law enforcement officers at greater risk. Republicans respect and stand with the men and women of law enforcement who keep our state and country safe."
Meyers noted that leaders are "supposed to bring people together and build bridges" before calling on Sanchez to retract his "inflammatory statement."
DHS says Sanchez should be grateful to ICE for removing criminals from the streets.
"State Rep. Enrique Sanchez should be thanking our law enforcement for removing these dangerous criminals from his state—NOT vilifying law enforcement," said a spokesperson for the agency.
"Attacks and demonization of ICE law enforcement are wrong. Because of smears like this our ICE officers are now facing a 1,300% increase in assaults against them as they put their lives on the line to arrest murderers, rapists, pedophiles, gang members, and terrorists. ICE law enforcement is arresting criminals and saving countless American lives," the spokesperson continued.
DHS also provided some names and criminal illegal aliens who ICE has taken off Rhode Island's streets. They include:
Sanchez, who was elected to the state House of Representatives in 2022, works as a case manager helping illegal immigrants, according to his biography on the state House website.
The Democratic lawmaker has issued harsh criticism of ICE before. In August 2025, he called ICE officers "Nazi Gestapo thugs" who he said "kidnapped another of our neighbors" in Providence.
"The ICE thugs damaged a couple cars that belonged to residents as well. They think they are above the law," he wrote on X at the time.

Two weeks later, he said ICE was "terrorizing" communities before calling for "a day of reckoning and no going back."
More recently, Sanchez lambasted the "Nazi ICE trash thugs" after an ICE agent killed a Colombian man in Maine.
Joan Sebastián Durán, 26, was shot and killed July 13 during an attempted traffic stop after he allegedly tried to flee, authorities said.
