In a moment of sheer irony—and a reminder of the chaos that often accompanies far-left activism—an anti-ICE protester in Upton, Massachusetts, accidentally sank her own vehicle while harassing federal agents. The incident, captured on video, occurred just 40 miles west of Boston, a city infamous for its sanctuary policies.
The footage shows the protester leaving her Ford in gear while shouting at ICE agents who were arresting an illegal immigrant. Moments later, the car slowly rolled into a nearby lake and disappeared beneath the surface. A bystander’s voice can be heard remarking, “Well, that sucks. Look at that, Lucy. Her car got lost.” The comical scene underscored the reckless behavior of far-left activists who prioritize political theater over common sense.
Local Fox News reporter Bill Melgun reported on the mishap, noting, “NEW: An anti-ICE protester in Massachusetts forgot to put her car in park while yelling at agents making an arrest of an illegal alien… and her vehicle went into a lake, an ICE source tells me.” While humorous, the incident highlights the growing number of anti-ICE protests spurred by former President Trump’s tough stance on border security.
Border Czar Tom Homan spoke with Fox News’ Jason Chaffetz on *Sunday Morning Futures* about the surge in aggression against federal agents. “You throw a stone, you’re going to jail. You put hands on an ICE officer, you’re going to jail. You make a threat—online or in person—you’re going to jail,” Homan warned, emphasizing that law enforcement will not tolerate violence.
Homan also condemned the Democrats for politicizing ICE. “If ICE is racist for enforcing the law, what does that make them? They wrote the law,” he said bluntly. He called members of Congress who attack ICE “disgusting” and “an embarrassment to the position they hold,” adding, “If they don’t like what ICE is doing, then do your job and legislate.”
The former ICE director assured Americans that federal agents under President Trump’s leadership will continue prioritizing public safety. “Until then, President Trump and the men and women of ICE are going to continue to prioritize public safety threats and national security threats and make this country safer every day,” Homan declared.
Adding another layer of concern, many of these protests are not entirely organic. Companies like Crowds on Demand have reportedly been hired to boost anti-ICE demonstrations. A spokesperson explained, “Numerous high-budget requests” have been made to inflate protest attendance, though the company emphasizes that it avoids any illegal activity, including violence or road-blocking. The spokesperson also noted that even seemingly peaceful anti-ICE rallies can pose dangers due to violent agitators, making law enforcement’s job much harder.
This episode in Massachusetts serves as both a humorous anecdote and a cautionary tale: far-left activism often prioritizes spectacle over safety, while law-abiding Americans continue to watch in disbelief. In the end, the sinking car was a literal—and symbolic—warning about the recklessness of anti-ICE protest culture.
