Two detainees were killed and another wounded at a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas, Texas, between 3:06 AM and 3:36 AM UTC on September 25th. The shooter died by suicide after firing from a nearby roof with a rifle, according to authorities cited by Senator Elizabeth Warren on X. Senator Warren condemned the violence on X, stating, "The shooting at an ICE facility in Texas was a horrific act of violence. Violence is never the answer—never." The Department of Homeland Security had reportedly increased security at ICE facilities prior to this incident, and Secretary Kristi Noem was scheduled for an interview. Noem had previously characterized shootings motivated by anti-ICE sentiment as a consequence of far-left rhetoric. In related political developments, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries have condemned President Donald Trump's administration's plans for federal worker layoffs, announced via an OMB memo. Schumer stated on X that the actions are an "attempt at intimidation" and "nothing new," asserting the firings are not about funding the government but about "to scare." Jeffries similarly denounced the "threat to engage in mass firings" as the work of a "malignant political hack." Separately, more troops have been suspended pending investigations into Charlie Kirk-related posts, according to Military Times. The details of these investigations were not provided in the available information.
