Under the order, private businesses can choose to display signage indicating that ICE cannot enter without a warrant—thereby designating “their property as part of a city-wide network of community spaces that stand together in affirming the safety, dignity, and belonging of all of our residents,” the mayor said.

Johnson touted the order for building “a broad civic shield that limits the reach of harmful enforcement practices. It strengthens neighborhood solidarity and it reaffirms Chicago’s role as a welcoming city.”

    “This is SICK,” said the president’s team, accusing Johnson of “aiding and abetting criminal illegal immigrant killers, rapists, traffickers, and gang bangers.”

    Still waiting for a single shred of evidence about any of this

    Also still waiting for the trump/Epstein files!

      And if there was evidence of illegal immigrants or criminals sheltering in a specific location, getting a warrant would be a piece of cake

            My point is those states haven’t been defunding their police forces and still charge people for crimes.

            Look at the madness in New York or Chicago, two cities that defunded their police forces and now crime runs rampant, illegal immigrant or not.

          Remember when they said they were going to round up all the dangerous criminal illegal immigrants?

          But those were too hard to find, so they arrested the guys outside Home Depot or in the Hyundai factory instead. As long as they “look,” illegal, that’s good enough

            They did what Nixon wanted to do but couldn’t. The war on drugs started because they knew they couldn’t make being black illegal or being against war illegal… but now they did. Being brown or non-white of any kind in the US is effectively illegal, and in many countries protests against genocide are felony level criminal. They made many punishments for whatever protests they don’t like is now up to 4 years in jail. They never had that before… period. This is fucking insane.

      As usual, it’s projection all the way. You’ll find them all in the oval office.
