PORTLAND, Ore. — A controversial video shared by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on X (formerly Twitter) Sunday has sparked outrage after the agency appeared to mock a detained protester being dragged away during demonstrations outside its Portland facility.
The post, captioned “PORTLAND – Refuse to walk? We’ll give you a ride,” featured footage of a handcuffed protester being carried by federal agents while Chamillionaire’s 2005 hit “Ridin’” played in the background. The tone of the post, combined with the use of a rap song best known for its lyrics about racial profiling (“They see me rollin’, they hatin’”), immediately drew backlash online.
