Immigration and Customs Enforcement posted a now-viral video of a Portland protester being wheeled away on a metal flatbed cart to the 2005 hip-hop hit “Ridin” by Chamillionaire.
ICE posted the clip of the face-down individual in a hoodie lying on their stomach on the cart with their hands cuffed behind their back while spitting and gritting their teeth, adding the caption “Refuse to walk? We’ll give you a ride,” on X Sunday.
The video has since racked up 8.4 million views and over 113,000 likes – while sparking outrage from some users who contended the agency’s handling of the arrestee was “repulsive.”

ICE did not respond to The Post’s request for comment for additional information on the arrest at the time of publication.
The video comes as President Trump on Sunday defied a federal order and deployed 300 California National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon, following anti-ICE protests in the city.
“After a federal court blocked his attempt to federalize the Oregon National Guard, Donald Trump is deploying 300 California National Guard personnel into Oregon,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a post on X.
Last week, Trump demanded Secretary of War Pete Hegseth unleash “all necessary troops” to Portland and use “full force” to protect ICE from “domestic terrorists.”
Oregon immediately sued to block the deployment of troops.
US District Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump nominee, ruled Saturday that deploying active-duty troops to Portland would violate the US Constitution and defy federal law barring military involvement in domestic law enforcement.
She also argued that Trump’s order did not reflect the reality on the ground of the protests at the immigration processing facility in South Portland
“Overall, the protests were small and uneventful,” she wrote in her ruling.
“The President’s determination was simply untethered to the facts.”
Before the judge’s Saturday ruling, hundreds of protesters marched in protest to the South Macadam Avenue detention center — clashing with federal agents who fired tear gas, mace, and pepper spray at the crowds, according to local reports.
