Joe Rogan to Trump admin: ICE raids ‘freaks people out’
Podcaster Joe Rogan is issuing a warning to President Donald Trump and his administration: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations are resulting in a backlash among voters.
During a recent episode of his podcast, " Joe Rogan Experience ", Rogan said that voters thought that ICE would only be getting rid of gang members and not laborers who are "part of communities."
"That's what freaks people out, because when people thought about ICE, they thought, 'Great, we're going to get rid of the gang members.' They didn't think, 'Great, you're going to get rid of the landscaper,'" Rogan said on his podcast.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fl., a guest on the show, claimed that recent protests against ICE are being backed by Chinese money in order to sow division among Americans before next year's mid-term elections.
While Rogan said that he believes some of the protests are "manufactured," he added that there has been a negative reaction to the Trump administration's immigration policies.
"It was a visceral reaction that a lot of people had to the idea of people just showing up and pulling people out of schools and pulling people out of Home Depot and pulling people that were just hardworking people that maybe snuck over here because they didn't have a legal way to get over here, but since they've been here, they've been good people and they're a part of communities," Rogan said.
Rogan endorsed Trump in 2024.
