The Party of Chaos: Democrats’ Open War on Law Enforcement

By TheNevadaGlobeStaff, January 11, 2026 7:37 am

For years, Democrats have insisted they “support the police,” but their own words and actions tell a very different story. A new breakdown from the White House lays it out plainly: at least 57 times, leading Democrats have smeared, undermined, and openly attacked the men and women who keep our communities safe.

This isn’t a one-off gaffe or a stray activist slogan. It’s a pattern. From demonizing local police departments to attacking federal law enforcement officers doing their jobs, Democrats have chosen ideology over public safety. They’ve flirted with “defund the police” rhetoric, cheered on radical prosecutors, and treated law enforcement like the problem—while violent crime, drug trafficking, and chaos surged.

The result? Police morale cratered. Recruitment dried up. Experienced officers retired early. Criminals noticed. Ordinary families paid the price.

Even now, Democrats continue to attack agencies like ICE and Border Patrol—officers on the front lines stopping fentanyl, human trafficking, and violent criminals. Instead of backing them up, Democrats accuse them of misconduct, push to strip their funding, and stay silent when officers are injured or killed in the line of duty. That silence is deafening—and voters hear it loud and clear.

Republicans have taken a different path, one rooted in common sense and tradition: respect the badge, enforce the law, and stand with those who stand between order and chaos. Under President Trump, law enforcement once again has a commander-in-chief who has their backs—not one who throws them under the bus when activists get loud.

You don’t keep communities safe by attacking the people sworn to protect them. Democrats tried that experiment. It failed. Badly.

Now the contrast couldn’t be clearer: one party sides with cops and families, the other sides with excuses and criminals. Voters are done pretending not to notice.
