CHICAGO UPDATE:
Washington Post reports border czar Tom Homan "reconsidering" Chicago ICE raids since we know they are (or WERE) coming

Here's the key quote:

"President-elect Donald Trump’s handpicked “border czar” Tom Homan said in an interview Saturday that the incoming administration is reconsidering whether to launch immigration raids in Chicago next week after preliminary details leaked out in news reports"

For context, recall that Homan even threatened the Mayor of Chicago with arrest if he goes through with plans to stand in the way of any raids. Chicago though doubled down on standing against ICE, a proposal to let ICE fish in their jails etc was just voted down.

Sounds to me like Homan is hearing from lower and midlevel ICE employees who are not stupid enough to be enthusiastic about trying to raid a place they are expected at a time they are expected.

As I predicted, it's widely reported now that Chicago and Chicago activists are preparing defenses. If Homan is dumb enough to go through with the raids his agents will face a very, very tough fight and it seems he knows it. It is this self-doxxing that let us set up on and kill Trump's 2019 "Family Operation," lets hope we can build on that hard-won victory from last time.
