A young man who filmed a video threatening ICE agents and then tried to lie his way out of it is about to learn the hard way that there are consequences.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, teenage-looking individuals went on TikTok last week. They decided to piggyback off reports of bounties that have been issued against ICE agents trying to enforce our immigration laws.
In the video, one of the young men smiles as he pulls down his mask. Rap music plays in the background, and his cronies stand behind him.
There is also a threatening message in the video, which reads as follows:
ICE, we’re on the way. Word in the streets cartels put a $50K bounty on y’all.
Cartels declare WAR on Trump admin
$50k bounty on ICE agents
Street gangs smell opportunity

The young man responsible for putting the video together then tried to claim he had been hacked . But no serious person bought his lame lie.
Now, the lowlife is facing serious federal trouble. Assistant DHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin appeared on The Benny Show on Tuesday and told host Benny Johnson that the youth had been referred to the FBI, which is investigating the matter.

MCLAUGHLIN: There were two separate narratives going on. First, they (Democrat politicians and the media) were saying we doctored this video and changed it from an Iranian message to an anti-ICE one.
Then, the second narrative was from the guy who posted this video, who said he was hacked.
We’ve referred this to the FBI, and so we’ll check on the status with them.
We are not backing down on this. This was not a joke or some hack.
We have the receipts.
