Press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the White House is “definitely concerned” about the increase in attacks on Immigration and Customs Enforcement after New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani urged immigrants to “stand up to ICE.”
“There’s a lot of talk by Democrat politicians in New York, but the Trump administration will continue to do our jobs in every state,” she said, “and that’s to remove illegal aliens and public safety threats from American communities.”
Leavitt’s response to Mamdani’s video comes weeks after President Donald Trump held a friendly meeting with the mayor-elect in his office, with Trump saying he is “very confident” Mamdani can “do a very good job.”
Leavitt said the Trump administration is “definitely concerned about the rise in violence, in attacks and physical threats that we have seen against our brave men and women who wear the ICE uniform.”
“These are agents who are just simply doing their jobs,” she said. “They’re enforcing our nation’s immigration laws, and we’ve seen more than a 1,000% increase in violent attacks on them and their families.”

ICE agents have been doxed, harassed, and physically assaulted, Leavitt said.
“We condemn that wholeheartedly,” she said. “I know the administration has done a lot to protect our ICE agents and the president stands firmly behind them in conducting these enforcement operations.”
