'I'm demanding that they stop': ICE director bashes Mayor Wu, other politicians for criticizing agency
Briefly

Todd Lyons, the Acting Director of ICE, publicly criticized Boston Mayor Michelle Wu and others for their inflammatory remarks about the agency. He accused these politicians of inciting anti-ICE sentiment and putting the safety of ICE officers in jeopardy. Lyons emphasized that their rhetoric could harm real families and insisted they must cease these comments. Wu defended her claims, noting the fear residents have about ICE operations. The tension highlights the ongoing debate over immigration enforcement and its implications on community safety.
"While it's easy to be an armchair quarterback and make up talking points that get activists riled up, the bottom line is my offices and agents are out there protecting the same people who are threatening their safety."
"These are real people with real families you're hurting with your ridiculous rhetoric and inflammatory comments, and it's time to remember that."
