NEW: A New York man has been arrested & charged federally for allegedly threatening to murder an ICE agent & his children. HSI says 43-year-old Matthew White of Jamestown, NY, posted on X about an ICE agent:

"I can't wait to put a bullet into his brain, but first his children."

HSI says White also made other threatening comments, including responding to a video of border czar Tom Homan by saying:

"Then understand if your ICE agents don't show proof of identity and a signed warrant, we will kill them."

White also allegedly posted: "Kill them all, ICE is the new age Gestapo, stop them."

White is charged with communicating interstate threats. He made his first appearance in federal court last week and has been released from custody with conditions.

“This escalation in violence is incomprehensible, and those responsible will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. This is precisely what we have been warning against, as disinformation and dangerous politically-motivated rhetoric spreads. We are thankful to Alvarado Police Department responding officers and that the officer injured has been discharged from the hospital. We will continue to work with the FBI and Texas Rangers as they investigate and prosecute those involved.”
— Acting ICE Director Todd M. Lyons
