A viral video from Phoenix has thrust an Arizona Democratic Party official into the spotlight after he was caught on camera aggressively confronting young women who posed for photos with federal ICE agents.
The footage, which surfaced on January 27, 2026, shows heated exchanges amid protests over Homeland Security operations.
Now, questions swirl about accountability in the wake of public backlash.
Mark Holodnak, identified as the treasurer of the Arizona Democratic Party's Legislative District 12 (LD12) Executive Committee for 2025-2026 and a licensed real estate agent with HomeSmart International, appears in the video chasing the women across a parking lot while repeatedly shouting, "You little fcking cnts!"
"You little fcking punks! Supporting racist motherfuckers!" he also yelled. "Everybody’s going to know you have a smelly little c*nt."
OMG

The grown man who yelled at a girl and called her a “c*nt” for supporting ICE has reportedly been identified as the treasurer for the District 12 Arizona Democratic Party https://t.co/xfYAmtz2DD pic.twitter.com/iSamtpdK23
Witnesses and footage indicate Holodnak and others photographed the women's license plates in an effort to doxx them.
Holodnak declined to answer questions when approached afterward.
The incident occurred outside Zipps Sports Grill locations in the Phoenix area, where federal agents executed search warrants as part of a criminal investigation unrelated to immigration sweeps, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for Arizona.
Online outrage led to widespread calls for Holodnak's removal from his party role and reports to the Arizona Department of Real Estate.

As of January 27, 2026, HomeSmart International has parted ways with Holodnak, confirming his termination from the brokerage.
LD12 Democrats have removed references to current executive committee members from their website, and the district is investigating the matter following numerous public complaints.
Neither Holodnak nor Arizona Democratic Party officials have issued public statements addressing the video or his status.
This episode underscores the raw tensions over immigration enforcement in a border state, where one side sees law-and-order heroes, the other sees overreach, and how quickly a single outburst can upend a public figure's standing when the cameras roll and the calls flood in.
Accountability, when it comes, often arrives not from party edicts but from the pressure of an informed public demanding better.
