WATCH: Far-Left DA Vows To ‘Hunt’ ICE Agents If Democrats Retake White House

Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner vowed to “hunt” U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on state charges for alleged crimes he did not specify.

Krasner made the remarks while speaking outside City Hall on Tuesday, where he and a handful of local officials unveiled proposed legislation described as an “ICE Out” package, which seeks to place additional barriers against federal immigration operations in the city.

“This is a small bunch of wannabe Nazis. That’s what they are. In a country of 350 million, we outnumber them. If we have to hunt you down the way they hunted down Nazis for decades, we will find your identities,” Krasner the far-left district attorney told attendees. “We will find you. We will achieve justice.”

Without providing specifics on any alleged charges to pursue, he further elaborated on his plan to hold trials in Democrat-dominated Philadelphia.
“If any law enforcement agent, any ICE agent, is going to come to Philly to commit crimes, then you can get the ‘eff’ out of here. I will charge you, you will be arrested, you will stand trial, you will be convicted,” he said.

Krasner also noted that presidential pardons would not apply to state convictions. Donald Trump cannot pardon you for a state court conviction. Do you hear me, ICE agents?”

Krasner, who has long received significant campaign contributions from leftist billionaire financier George Soros, has repeatedly threatened to bring state charges against President Trump’s allies and supporters.

Immediately after the president moved to pardon all January 6 protesters, Krasner threatened to bring state charges, but has yet to do so. He also threatened to charge ICE agents during last year’s riots in Los Angeles.

Pennsylvania state lawmakers have warned Philadelphia officials, including Krasner and Sheriff Rochelle Bilal, against interfering with federal immigration enforcement. At the federal level, U.S. Rep. Greg Steube (R-FL) has called for the Department of Justice to arrest and prosecute Krasner, arguing that his threats against ICE agents constitute a felony under federal law, which carries a potential penalty of up to 10 years in prison.
