Border Patrol agents were shot at by an gunman driving a black Jeep in Chicago, Illinois, on Saturday.

The shooter and vehicle are at large.

Other anti-ICE agitators threw bricks and a paint can at federal agents.

“Today, U.S. Border Patrol was conducting immigration enforcement operations near 26th Street and Kedzie Avenue in Chicago, Illinois, when an unknown male driving a black Jeep fired shots at agents and fled the scene,” the DHS said.

“An unknown number of agitators also threw a paint can and bricks at Border Patrol’s vehicles. Chicago Police Department was called for assistance and cleared the scene,” the DHS said.

“This incident is not isolated and reflects a growing and dangerous trend of violence and obstruction. Over the past two months, we’ve seen an increase in assaults and obstruction targeting federal law enforcement during operations. These confrontations highlight the dangers our agents face daily and the escalating aggression toward law enforcement. The violence must end,” the DHS said.

A New York City psychotherapist says he has received dozens of hostile messages, including explicit death threats, after publicly describing the growing number of patients in his practice who exhibit what he calls symptoms of “Trump derangement syndrome” (TDS).

Jonathan Alpert, a Manhattan-based licensed therapist and author of the forthcoming book “Therapy Nation,” revealed that the backlash began immediately after he appeared on Fox News last week to discuss a Wall Street Journal op-ed he wrote on Nov. 12.

In the piece, he described “patients across the political spectrum” who raise President Donald Trump in therapy sessions “not to discuss policy but to process obsession, rage, and dread.”

Alpert shared several messages he says he received through text and email over the past week.

Many were profane; some included threats.

One message told him to “eat s— and die.”

Another called him a “pedophile protector.”

A third read: “You’re a lowlife… pedophile who decent people hope is slaughtered.”

“It’s been intense,” Alpert said.

“I expected disagreement, but I didn’t expect the level of hostility, especially from people in the mental health field.”

He said the reactions highlight a contradiction he’s observed:

"Many of the people who speak the most about empathy, tolerance, and inclusion reacted with the least of it."
