Los Federales Starting To Hit SCC

It would actually be kind of fun if ICE and the other agencies involved would just pop up here and there, not really doing anything, just freaking out the citizens, especially the illegals, in Sanctuary City Chicago

Federal immigration agents make arrests in Chicago and West Chicago with sightings in several other suburbs

Federal immigration enforcement agents made arrests in Chicago and the suburb of West Chicago on Monday, while others were spotted in west suburban Aurora, officials and two state lawmakers said.

The actions come one week after President Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security announced it was embarking on its latest immigration enforcement surge in the Chicago region, which it dubbed “Operation Midway Blitz.”

State Sen. Karina Villa, a Democrat from West Chicago, said she saw the federal agents assembling at a West Chicago Police Department station parking lot early Monday. When she confronted them about why they were present, they dispersed, she said.

At some point, she said there were “probably over five” arrests, though she said that was not confirmed independently by federal or local law enforcement. Villa said volunteers in the community were dispatched to take video or photos of immigration enforcement activity, and the agents were wearing vests that identified them as being from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and they were in “unmarked vehicles.”

Why they were present? Well, the US Congress has tasked ICE and other federal agents to enforce federal law and detain those illegally present in the US. And, by “dispersed”, they most likely went about doing their jobs, rather than running from her.

Under Illinois’ 2017 Trust Act, signed into law by former Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner, local law enforcement is prohibited from working with federal authorities on immigration enforcement. Villa said West Chicago’s mayor assured her they’re “not collaborating with ICE.”

Then deny them federal funds. Local and state law enforcement are required to help detain people who have broken federal laws.

She said this all transpired as elementary and high school classes in the area were beginning for the day.

“This is a terror that they’re attempting to instill in our community,” Villa said.

Terror, huh? Well, these same people think of Mexico as their home country.

Thousands in Chicago celebrate Mexican American heritage amid immigration crackdown

The annual Mexican Independence Day parade in Little Village on Sunday brought a sea of thousands of people wearing green and red waving Mexican flags of all sizes. Dozens of brightly colored floats highlighting Mexican culture by local organizations, businesses and unions were on display, as men on horseback, marching bands and dancers streamed down 26th Street in this majority Latino neighborhood.

Yet, the streets weren’t as full as in previous years, largely owing to fears over President Donald Trump’s efforts to ramp up immigration arrests in the city.

Do they want to be Americans or Mexicans? They aren’t making a very convincing case. Do French-Americans, Scottish-Americans, and others celebrate independence for their old countries? Very, very few. They do not have massive parades (these parades happened in other Dem run cities, too). As I’ve maintained for decades, if the illegals really want to be Americans then act like it. Learn the language. Stop taking all that public assistance. Blend in. Don’t fly Mexican flags and pretend like you’re still in Mexico. This goes for the illegals from other nations.
