Carl Higbie didn’t mince words on his Newsmax program when he slammed the double standard from the left over political violence, and hardworking Americans should be hearing that message loud and clear. For too long the mainstream media and Democratic politicians have shrugged off attacks on federal officers as “protest,” while treating any criticism of left-wing mobs as dangerous rhetoric. Higbie’s FRONTLINE has become a beacon for listeners who want straight talk about law, order, and accountability in a country that used to respect both.
The facts are ugly and undeniable: federal immigration raids at large California cannabis farms on July 10 sparked chaotic confrontations, with videos showing some demonstrators hurling rocks and other projectiles at federal vehicles as agents tried to withdraw. Those dramatic scenes weren’t staged — multiple outlets captured the clashes, the smoke, and the people who crossed the line from lawful protest to assaulting officers and damaging government property. Conservatives who defend the rule of law aren’t anti-protest; we’re against violent mobs who think breaking windows and throwing rocks is a political strategy.
President Trump reacted exactly as any president who values law and order should: he publicly ordered that those attacking federal officers be arrested and empowered ICE and DHS to protect agents from assaults on the road. The president’s blunt direction — to stop letting thugs pelt our agents and government vehicles with bricks and rocks — was a necessary rebuke to the permissive attitude that too many on the left have adopted. If you’ve got the luxury of calling law enforcement “Nazis” in press conferences, you don’t get to feign outrage when the rhetoric sparks real-world violence.
This isn’t just politics-as-usual; DHS officials have warned of a surge in assaults against immigration personnel, and a pattern of demonizing enforcement has consequences. The White House and Homeland Security have been explicit: rhetoric that dehumanizes ICE agents fuels attacks and puts men and women in uniform at risk. Conservatives understand that defending the rule of law also means defending the people who enforce it — and that when partisan leaders stoke fury, they bear responsibility for what follows.
Higbie tore into that hypocrisy on air, calling out Democrats who cheer the mobs in the streets but wring their hands when conservatives push back politically. That’s not leadership — it’s enabling. Viewers tuning into Carl’s FRONTLINE saw an unapologetic conservative voice refuse to normalize violence or excuse those who would weaponize compassion into chaos.
The message for every hardworking American is simple: we can protest, we can dissent, and we can demand change — but we will not accept lawlessness dressed up as virtue-signaling. If Democrats want to stop the blood in the streets and the broken windows at federal facilities, they can start by telling their activists to put down the rocks and stop telling federal officers they’re the enemy. Until then, patriots must stand with the men and women who wear the badge and say, loudly and proudly, that America will not be intimidated into surrendering law and order.
