A Texas illegal immigrant apparently thought TikTok was the place to post a hit list for ICE officers — a stunningly stupid move that, unsurprisingly, blew up in his face. What looked like bravado online turned into a very bad day for him once law enforcement stepped in.
His name is Eduardo Aguilar, and according to authorities, he was offering as much as $10,000 for each successful hit on ICE officers. That little stunt earned the 23-year-old an up-close and personal visit from the Department of Homeland Security — and, as you might imagine, it didn’t end well for him. Aguilar was promptly arrested:

The tweet from DHS adds:
We are thankful this criminal who had a firearm in his possession was arrested before he could kill one of our law enforcement officers.
The Trump administration will not back down from these threats, and every criminal, terrorist, and illegal alien will face American justice.
The United States Attorney’s Office, Northern District of Texas, issued a statement Thursday detailing the charges this schmuck is facing:
An illegal alien from Mexico was arrested Tuesday for soliciting others to kill ICE agents in a TikTok post on October 9, 2025, announced Acting United States Attorney for the Northern District of Texas Nancy E. Larson.
According to court records, Eduardo Aguilar, 23, residing in Dallas, Texas, was charged by federal complaint for transmitting in interstate or foreign commerce a communication containing a threat, resulting from his October 9 post on TikTok in Spanish…
Court records reflect that the translation of the black and white text states, “I need 10 dudes in Dallas with determination (guts) who aren’t afraid to [two skull emojis].” The emojiis are known to represent the word, “die.” The second phrase, in red and white text, states, “10K for each ICE agent.”

He’s looking at a great deal of hard time if he’s convicted:
Aguilar was in court on Wednesday and was ordered detained in federal custody. He faces a maximum of five years in prison if convicted.
“Threats against our law enforcement officers are completely unacceptable,” said acting U.S. Attorney Nancy E. Larson. “All threats against our agents and officers will be investigated thoroughly, and anyone who threatens or puts a bounty on agents will be arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent possible.”
The Democrats’ endless drumbeat of rage and division has consequences — and their leftist foot soldiers are listening. The only way to deal with this madness is to confront it head-on: enforce the law, reject the mob, and hold every instigator accountable.
