Production of Daily Wire’s pro-ICE film “Pawn Shop” has been temporarily halted in Livingston, Mont., following a Special City Commission Meeting held on Saturday.

Montgomery County, Montana's city commission voted to suspend filming permits for the Daily Wire's thriller "Pawn Shop," citing disruptions to local businesses and inadequate communication with the community. The decision came after a special meeting where concerns were raised about the production’s impact on residents and businesses.
A spokesperson for the Livingston Food Resource Center expressed concern over the increase in road closures and armed security, which has made accessing essential resources difficult for their clients. The film, which reportedly draws inspiration from the 2021 death of an activist by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), has faced criticism for its "pro-ICE" narrative and for failing to notify local communities about the filming schedule.
Despite the suspension, the Daily Wire has not yet commented on the situation or on future plans for the project.
