A Rhode Island lawmaker who previously referred to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers as “Nazi Gestapo thugs” said “your day of reckoning will come mother——” in a charged social media post aimed at the agency tasked with carrying out the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration.
State Rep. Enrique Sanchez, a Democrat, directed his anger at ICE in a Wednesday post on X decrying its enforcement tactics:
“Fighting and dealing with ICE since last year has f—– me up in the head after trying to protect and defend hundreds and hundreds of our community members in Providence and across Rhode Island. Your day of reckoning will come mother——,” he wrote. “I swear to god.”

Fox News Digital has reached out for comment to Sanchez, ICE, and the Department of Homeland Security, along with the Rhode Island Republican and Democratic parties.
Sanchez, who was elected to the state House of Representatives in 2022, works as a case manager helping illegal immigrants, according to his biography on the state House website.
The Democratic lawmaker has issued harsh criticism of ICE before. In August 2025, he called ICE officers “Nazi Gestapo thugs” who he said “kidnapped another of our neighbors” in Providence.
