Border Czar Tom Homan is doing exactly what Americans voted for when they put President Trump back in the White House. He’s standing up for our ICE agents who risk their lives every day to keep our communities safe. These brave men and women deserve our full support as they clean up the mess left by years of failed liberal policies.
Operation Midway Blitz launched this week in Chicago to round up dangerous criminal aliens who have been hiding in sanctuary cities. The Department of Homeland Security made it clear they’re going after the worst of the worst. These are not innocent people looking for a better life – these are criminals who rape children and sell deadly drugs to our kids.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson just signed an order telling his police not to help federal agents catch these criminals. This is exactly the kind of dangerous sanctuary city nonsense that has turned once-great American cities into crime-ridden disaster zones. Mayor Johnson cares more about protecting illegal criminals than protecting his own citizens.
Homan explained that ICE is targeting criminal illegal aliens who flocked to Chicago because they knew liberal politicians would protect them. Governor Pritzker’s sanctuary policies have rolled out the red carpet for gang members and drug dealers. Now hardworking Chicago families are paying the price with their safety and their tax dollars.
Democrat Senator Dick Durbin called this operation a waste of money and claimed it makes us less safe. This is the same backwards thinking that got us into this mess in the first place. How does removing violent criminals from our streets make us less safe? Only a liberal politician could come up with logic that twisted.
Our ICE agents are true American heroes who deserve our praise and support. They’re doing the dangerous work that local politicians refuse to do. While Democrats complain and obstruct, these federal agents are actually making our communities safer for law-abiding families.
The operation is using Naval Station Great Lakes as a base with 250 federal agents and 140 vehicles for the next month. Early reports show arrests are already happening across the Chicago area. This is what real action looks like when you have leaders who actually care about American safety.
Tom Homan and President Trump are keeping their promises to the American people. They’re putting criminals behind bars and sending them back where they came from. Every ICE agent deserves our thanks for standing between dangerous criminals and innocent American families.
