Chicago ICE agents under siege. It’s popping off in Chicago — This is all on Pritzker.





“This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will.” — Gov. J.B. Pritzker https://abc7chicago.com/post/donald-trump-administration-seeking-federalize-300-illinois-national-guard-members-amid-chicago-ice-raids-gov-jb-pritzker/17938396/

“Military-style tactics should never be used on children in a functioning democracy.” — Gov. J.B. Pritzker https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/military-style-ice-raid-in-chicago-shows-escalation-in-tactics/ar-AA1NRDkZ

This condemnation came after the raid, not before. Pritzker’s outrage is rhetorical, not operational. He didn’t prevent the raid, didn’t block the agents, and didn’t protect residents from flashbangs and zip ties.

“ICE needs to take it down about three notches.” — Gov. J.B. Pritzker https://wgntv.com/news/chicago-news/chicago-immigration-crackdown-fears/

This quote reveals a lack of control. Saying ICE needs to “take it down” is not the same as making them stop.

The Trump administration has federalized hundreds of Illinois National Guard troops and deployed them to Chicago along with additional law enforcement agents as tensions in the city boil over amid an expanded immigration crackdown and violence against federal agents.
