The end goal here is what, inciting a perceived riot? To then apply pressure during midterms? That can’t be it. What am I missing here?

Hours after this, dozens of ICE agents stormed a school as kids got out of class.
Let's repeat that: Masked adult men with deadly weapons that would not identify themselves rushed a school as children left with the explicit goal of kidnapping children.
Then, when teachers intervened to protect the children, they physically assaulted and sprayed/gassed them.
