ICE raids confirmed in ten cities, starting Tuesday.

Sharing is Caring!

Today marks a pivotal moment in American immigration policy as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) gears up for what’s being described as a significant operation focusing on deportations in several key U.S. cities. As someone who values the rule of law and the integrity of our borders, this development strikes me as a necessary step towards addressing the complexities of illegal immigration.

Starting this Tuesday, ICE is set to launch operations in ten major cities across the nation:

Chicago
Los Angeles
New York
Boston
Miami
Washington, D.C.
Denver
Houston
San Antonio
Dallas

The focus will be on individuals with final deportation orders, particularly those with criminal backgrounds. This initiative, dubbed “Operation Safeguard,” aims to uphold immigration laws by removing those who have no legal right to remain in the country.

The scale of these operations is significant. ICE has reportedly mobilized hundreds of officers for this task, with plans to conduct these actions over the next week. The operation is not just about the numbers but about sending a clear message that immigration laws will be enforced. It’s a response to the overwhelming number of cases on ICE’s non-detained docket, which now stands at 7.7 million, a stark increase from the 3.2 million at the end of Trump’s first term.

Public safety is at the forefront of these operations. Reports indicate that the primary targets are individuals with criminal records, but there’s also mention of potential collateral arrests among undocumented immigrants encountered during these operations. This approach, while controversial, underscores the administration’s commitment to tackling what’s perceived as a public safety threat.

The logistics of such operations are daunting, considering ICE’s current detention capacity is limited to about 41,000 beds, and there are budget constraints. Yet, the determination seems unwavering, with the goal to deport up to 267,000 individuals, a peak number from 2019 under the Trump administration, though recent deportations under Biden reached 271,484 in 2024 due to increased border apprehensions.

Sanctuary cities, especially those like Chicago and New York, have historically resisted cooperation with ICE, but the political landscape might be shifting. There’s been a noted increase in some Democratic cities cooperating with ICE due to concerns over crime, reflecting a broader public sentiment that’s growing weary of unchecked illegal immigration.
