ICE Captures Vietnamese Criminal Immigrant

In a new case that highlights the renewed effectiveness of immigration policies under President Donald J. Trump’s administration, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) shared a striking video showing federal agents arresting a Vietnamese immigrant identified as Thuc Ho, a repeat offender with multiple convictions. The video shows the individual attempting to flee authorities by ramming the vehicle behind him in a desperate escape attempt.

The man, who has a criminal record for drug possession, larceny, and burglary, was eventually subdued by ICE officers from the San Diego field office and is now being processed for immediate deportation. The footage, published on ICE’s official social media, not only reveals the dangerous nature of such individuals but also the federal government’s determination to restore order and public safety in our communities.

“Vietnamese criminal Thuc Ho rammed the car behind him trying to evade ICE San Diego officers. With convictions for drug possession, larceny, and burglary, you can bet we’ll get him ready for a one-way trip home,” ICE stated in its post.

Zero Tolerance: A Government That Acts, Not Apologizes

The case of Thuc Ho reflects the profound transformation that U.S. immigration policy has undergone since Trump’s return to the White House. Far from the leniency and complicity of previous progressive administrations, the current government has reestablished a zero-tolerance approach toward foreign criminals.

For years, individuals like Ho found refuge in sanctuary cities and jurisdictions where local authorities refused to cooperate with federal agencies. Today, that era is over. Under the Trump administration, it has become clear that no city can offer immunity to criminals who exploit the system, break the law, and endanger innocent citizens.

The publication of the video has a clear purpose: transparency, deterrence, and a call for civic action. ICE has reiterated the importance of citizens reporting the presence of criminal aliens via its tip line: 866-DHS-2-ICE, highlighting the crucial role of civil society in defending the nation.

The Left Remains Silent, Trump Takes Action

While progressive leaders and liberal-leaning media outlets prefer to look the other way when it comes to illegal immigration and crime, President Trump and his team confront these issues head-on. Under his leadership, ICE has redoubled efforts to detect, arrest, and deport foreign criminals who pose a direct threat to public safety.

The hypocrisy of the left is now undeniable: those who oppose the enforcement of the law in the name of “inclusion” are the same who ignore the suffering of the victims of these criminals. Where are the “human rights defenders” now when it comes to the rights of law-abiding citizens attacked, robbed, or harmed by individuals like Thuc Ho?

President Trump’s administration has responded with action: securing borders, strengthening ICE, and restoring respect for the law. The numbers speak for themselves. Since January 2025, thousands of foreign nationals with criminal records have been captured and deported — many of whom had remained at large due to permissive policies from left-leaning state governments.

The Narrative Changes When the People See Reality

The video of Thuc Ho’s arrest doesn’t need editing or dramatization. In just a few seconds, it shows what many have been warning about for years: unchecked immigration is not just a legal issue, but a public safety issue. The man’s violent reaction to seeing agents — trying to flee with no regard for consequences — reflects the type of individuals who have long been shielded under the guise of misunderstood compassion.

On social media, ICE’s post has been met with thousands of supportive comments. Ordinary Americans applaud the agents’ actions, with many noting that this is exactly why they voted for Donald Trump once again — to restore common sense, order, and the rule of law.

“Thank you ICE and thank you President Trump! Finally, a government that defends the citizens, not the criminals,” one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

US: A Nation of Laws, Not Impunity

The message from this operation is crystal clear: in the United States, the law is to be respected. This country welcomes those who come to work and contribute — but there is no room for those who come to commit crimes. Under President Trump, the concept of sovereignty has regained its rightful meaning. It is not xenophobic to defend borders. It is not intolerant to demand enforcement of the law. It is patriotism, justice, and common sense.

Every foreign criminal arrested and deported is one more family that can sleep in peace. Every successful operation is another step toward national recovery. And every citizen who reports suspicious activity helps build a stronger, safer, and freer America.

Conclusion: ICE Fulfilling Its Duty Under Strong Leadership

The capture of Thuc Ho symbolizes more than just an individual arrest: it is a living example of what it means to have a government that protects its people, that is unafraid to face difficult issues, and that understands that without law, there is no freedom.

Under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump, ICE has returned to being a respected, supported, and effective agency. Americans are seeing the difference. The question is no longer whether we should enforce the law, but why anyone ever believed it was optional.

America is waking up. And with courageous leaders, committed agents, and vigilant citizens, this nation is reclaiming its identity, its order, and its purpose.
