In Chicago, a sanctuary city, immigration rights advocates say ICE has unlawfully picked up at least 22 migrants, creating warrants after some had already been detained.

Homan is claiming people in Chicago are so well educated by Know Your Rights pamphlets that ICE is having difficulty arresting people & deporting them.

ICE, w/their guns, battering rams, search warrants & an $8.7 billion budget is being thwarted by pamphlets?!

No, it’s Homan’s failure as a leader.

BREAKING NEWS 🚨

Attention Chicago!

10 ICE teams, with 10 members per team, are in Chicago looking for illegal immigrants today and this week.

I've already heard reports of legal residents being detained as well!

Be careful out there!

Immigrants last week being deported to locations unknown via military planes on airbases.


"Chicago Public Schools officials said ICE agents were denied entry to a South Side elementary school Friday morning. Chicago Teachers Union President Stacy Davis Gates called the situation "unprecedented" at a news conference Friday afternoon." #Chicago

News of next week’s #raids leaked after the #Chicago City Council decisively rejected an effort to allow city police to cooperate with immigration enforcement. “We intend to stand by & protect Chicago’s immigrant communities against threats from ICE,” Mayor Johnson said Wednesday after the vote.

#law #immigration #CivilRights #Trump #Gestapo


#TomHoman declined to confirm details about a possible deployment in #Chicago & said operational plans are left up to regional #ICE offices. It would be unusual for an admin to be involved in law enforcement planning operations before the presidential #transition is complete, though Homan acknowledged he has engaged in some preliminary discussions about enforcement.

“We just told them: Put your boots on,” Homan said.

#law #immigration #CivilRights #Trump #Gestapo


…#TomHoman …& other incoming #Trump ofcls have said repeatedly that they are planning to immediately switch into enforcement mode, & that any of the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the #US illegally could be a target.

…Homan said at a holiday party last month in #Chicago that the admin would start raids “right here” & threatened to prosecute Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) for harboring undocumented immigrants if he got in the way.

#law #immigration #CivilRights #Gestapo


The seesawing reports of possible #raids in #Chicago can stir up fears that advance the admin’s broader enforcement goals, even if operations are postponed or shifted to other cities. #TomHoman & other #Trump aides say they want immigrants living in the United States illegally to once more fear arrest & choose to leave the country on their own, or “self-deport.”

#law #immigration #CivilRights #Gestapo


#ICE has been planning a large operation in the #Chicago area for next week that would start after Inauguration Day & would bring in additional officers to ramp up #arrests….

#TomHoman said he did not know why Chicago “became a focus of attention” & said the incoming admin’s enforcement goals are much broader than one city.

#Trump ofcls reassessing post-inauguration #Chicago #raids after plans leaked

Trump’s handpicked “border czar” #TomHoman said…the incoming admin is reconsidering whether to launch #immigration raids in Chicago next week after preliminary details leaked in news reports.

“We’re looking at this leak & will make a decision based on this leak. It’s unfortunate because anyone leaking law enforcement operations puts officers at greater risk,” Homan, said.

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

www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/2025/01/18/chicago-immigration-raids

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.

Chicago ALERT:
Trump self-doxxes Chicago ICE raids reportedly planned for Tuesday.

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) has reported Trump has declared he will send "hundreds" of Federal agents (presumably ICE) into Chicago on Tues, Jan 21 for immigration roundups. Other media outlets concur.

This link does not work with JS and ads disabled, unknown if it works without a subscription. A preview of it is circulating however, and shows the gist of it. Link provided only to prove it exists.

As in the failed 2019 "family operation" he has again doxxed himself and his agents. Again we know where and when his thugs plan to attack. Again that lets us set up on ICE, forcing them to raid into a prepared defense like what we did in DC in 2019. They never showed up, knowing we had a trap ready and waiting for them.

They would have been initially confronted by protesters and good cameras getting doxxing-quality photos of ICE agents. They would also have likely found that named targets for which they had warrants were nowhere to be found.

Since this was to be a house to house raid, it is probably that residents would have poured into the streets to reinforce the protest. If ICE didn't back off at that point the protests could easily have escalated to a major urban riot. In DC this was in the same area as the 1991 Mt Pleasant uprising. ICE never dared to face our waiting defenses.

Chicago like DC is considered a sanctuary city. The Chicago Sun-Times reports that rapid response teams of volunteers are now ready to respond to any aggression by ICE in the city.

Also note that under Federal law, all residents can deny ICE entry to their buildings. Legally, an attempted house to house raid can be met with a block full of slammed doors as more and more protesters gather, more and more media shows up, and the tension rises.

The initial "ICE watchers" themselves won't be intervening. They don't have to. They are scouts like I was back in 2019, their power is in their communications devices and the ability to summon others to the scene if the threatened raids pan out.

Very long story short but I had to take a train to Arkansas to pick up my wife’s car. Happened to get to Chicago for a huge snow day. Pretty proud of this photo. It’s a color photo! #b&wphoto #photography #chicago
A photo of “cloud Gate” commonly known as “the bean” in Millennium Park in Chicago. It is snowing heavily and very foggy/cloudy. The photo looks like it is in black and white, but it’s a color shot.
