Several Antifa terrorists attacked a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center in Portland, Oregon, just a few hours after President Donald Trump was sworn into office.
The attack was supposedly a response to Trump’s planned mass deportations and executive orders related to illegal immigration. However, none of these violent Antifa terrorists were arrested during the attack, and they have vowed to carry out more violence against immigration officials and facilities, according to their social media posts.
In a video posted to X, a group of at least 15 Antifa terrorists dressed in all black riot gear were seen setting fires and squaring off with federal agents outside the Portland ICE detention center on Macadam Road.
The video was proudly shared by an Antifa terrorist under the username @comradecamera.
In the video, Antifa terrorists were seen surrounding officers who were trying to put out one of the fires set by the terrorists, while others used megaphones to threaten and harass the officers.
“I’m so glad you signed up for this,” one terrorist was heard yelling, mocking authorities.
I always love here because the officers always find creative ways to waste taxes. Apparently bear spray doubles as a fire extinguisher. Like this… pic.twitter.com/ru1do2nc56

The Antifa terrorist who shared the video also vowed that the group will continue to carry out similar attacks, writing in another post: “For anyone just joining the chat now in 2025…Yes, this is the same building…Yes it can be set on fire.”
The post also included a picture of the ICE facility on fire back in 2021.
For anyone just joining the chat now in 2025…
Yes, this is the same building… Yes it can be set on fire.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk. https://t.co/zAcemFz1pp— ComradeCamera (@comradecamera) January 21, 2025
The facility attacked on the evening of Inauguration Day was the same one that Antifa has targeted numerous times, including several instances during Trump’s first term and even a few attacks under President Joe Biden. In April 2021, after Trump left office, Antifa terrorists set fire to the ICE detention facility while officers were trapped inside.
According to The Post Millennial senior editor Andy Ngo, several members of the Rose City Antifa terrorist group who have a history of violence and threats were in attendance during the incident on January 20. The outlet noted that this included “serial 2020 riot arrestee Tracy Molina who was released from jail on Jan. 16 on felony assault charges, and Elizabeth Richter, who Ngo sued in his 2023 lawsuit against Rose City Antifa et. al. Additionally, Richter participated in the violent 2018 occupation against ICE, where she used her young toddler as a human shield.”
