Denver ICE Protests: A Trump Supporter’s Take on the Mayhem
Main Points
- Denver’s anti-ICE protests have turned chaotic, with police using tear gas to break up crowds after an unlawful assembly was declared.
- Trump’s stepped-up ICE raids and border security measures are at the heart of the unrest, seen by supporters as vital for protecting the country.
- Police arrested two people earlier this year for hate-driven attacks on protesters, showing how heated things have gotten.
- The protests demonstrate the conflict between individuals advocating for stricter border controls and people who oppose Trump’s policies with fierce determination.
What’s Going On in Denver?
Anti-ICE protests reached their peak intensity in the Mile High City on June 11 during their year-long peak in 2025. Police deemed the downtown Denver crowd an unlawful assembly as they blocked streets and caused chaos which led to tear gas deployment. The Denver protests are the result of prolonged tension which included a large gathering at the Colorado State Capitol in February when thousands demonstrated against Trump’s immigration policies. Things haven’t been peaceful—back in February, cops nabbed two guys for allegedly hurling glass and yelling hateful slurs at protesters.
Denver’s not alone. Cities like Los Angeles and Chicago have seen similar anti-ICE flare-ups, but Denver’s protests stand out for their intensity and the city’s liberal leanings clashing with Trump’s agenda.
Why Are People So Fired Up?
Trump’s Border Crackdown
President Trump’s immigration policies are the spark. His administration has doubled down on ICE raids, hitting businesses and neighborhoods to deport illegal immigrants. For folks like me who support Trump, this is about keeping America safe and respecting the law. But for the protesters, it’s a heartless attack on families, and they’re hitting the streets to make their voices heard. The divide couldn’t be starker.
Who’s Behind the Protests?
Some chatter on X points to organized groups, maybe even the same ones who stirred up trouble during the 2020 riots, with familiar chants echoing through Denver’s streets. While hard evidence is scarce, it’s enough to make Trump supporters like me suspicious about who’s really pulling the strings. At jvpolitical.com, we’re digging into these questions to shine a light on the truth.
My Take: We Need Law and Order
As a Trump supporter, I see these protests for what they are: a loud, messy attempt to undermine a president who’s keeping his promises. The Denver police are doing what they have to—using tear gas and making arrests to keep the city from spiraling out of control. ICE’s workplace raids, which slapped Denver businesses with millions in fines for hiring illegal workers, are about holding people accountable. This is what leadership looks like, and I’m proud to stand with Trump on this.
The chaos in Denver proves why we need a strong hand to guide the nation. Protesters might call it resistance, but to me, it’s just noise against the rule of law.
What’s at Stake?
These protests aren’t just a Denver problem—they’re a snapshot of America’s fight over borders, identity, and who gets to call the shots. Trump’s policies are pushing the country toward a reckoning, and every clash in Denver makes that clearer. For supporters, it’s a call to rally behind a leader who puts America first. At jvpolitical.com, we’re committed to covering this fight with no sugarcoating, giving you the real story the mainstream skips.

What triggered the ICE operations in Denver in May 2025?
In May 2025, ICE conducted targeted enforcement operations in Denver and Aurora, focusing on apprehending undocumented immigrants with criminal histories or final deportation orders. These actions align with President Trump’s campaign promises to prioritize public safety and border security through mass deportations. The operations were part of a broader federal effort, with ICE detaining individuals deemed threats, such as those with convictions for violent crimes, as confirmed by federal authorities. Supporters view these as lawful measures to protect communities from illegal immigration-related risks.
