HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WHNT) — A federal grand jury has charged four people with immigration crimes, the U.S. DOJ said. The U.S. Department of Justice announced Friday that four people were indicted for illegally reentering the United States after having previously been deported: Victor Alfonso Contreras-Gonzalez, 41, a citizen of Mexico; Arturo Ayala-Aviles, 33, a citizen of El Salvador; Jose Jacuinde-Gutierrez , 32, a citizen of Mexico, was charged with illegally reentering the United States after having previously been deported and distribution of cocaine.

BOSTON (AP) — A federal appeals court ruled Friday that the Trump administration can end legal protections for around 430,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela. The ruling by a three-judge panel of the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is the latest twist in a legal fight over Biden-era policies that created new and expanded pathways for people to live in the United States, generally for two years with work authorization. The Trump administration announced in March it was ending the humanitarian parole protections. “We recognize the risks of irreparable harm persuasively laid out in the district court’s...

An illegal immigrant deemed too dangerous by Cuban officials to be deported back to his home country was arrested for allegedly slicing his manager's head off in front of his family and kicking it "like a soccer ball." The murder of Chandra Nagamallaiah, a manager of a Downtown Suites motel in Dallas, occurred on Wednesday. He had told suspect Yordanis Cobos-Martinez, 37, and another motel worker, who were cleaning a room, not to use a washing machine which was broken. According to the other worker, Cobos-Martinez grew very upset that Nagamallaiah would not give him these directions in Spanish. Instead,...

In a significant legal decision, the South Carolina Supreme Court has overturned a lower court ruling that had prevented the Department of Justice, under former President Donald Trump, from accessing the state’s voter rolls. This reversal marks a critical development in the ongoing debates over voter registration and election integrity in the United States. Leading the charge in these efforts is Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, who is actively working to identify and eliminate ineligible and illegal voters from state databases, a move that has sparked considerable discussion and controversy. The ruling is expected to have wide-reaching implications for election-related...

More than 100 demonstrators surround ICE vehicles as roofers refuse to come down from rooftop. A dramatic standoff in upstate New York between immigration agents, roofers and protesters ended with officials leaving the scene with slashed tires Tuesday. The confrontation happened at a residential job site where one worker was detained and others refused to come down from a rooftop in Rochester’s Park Avenue area. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and other federal agencies arrived at the sanctuary city home to carry out a removal operation of the suspected illegal immigrants. One roofer was...

CHICAGO (AP) — The streets in some of Chicago’s liveliest neighborhoods are quiet these days. Public schoolteachers want online learning for families scared to venture out. And houses of worship are urging people to carry identification everywhere they go. As the nation’s third-largest city awaits a much-hyped federal intervention, residents are making changes in their daily routines. President Donald Trump has promised Chicago will see a surge in deportations and National Guard troops as he targets Democratic strongholds. While the feeling of being vulnerable isn’t new, especially among immigrants, many say this time the fear is deeper and the preparations...

Voters across the nation are now marching shelter to shelter, demanding they be emptied as police work overtime to arrest those peacefully demonstrating in the UK. More show notes: People in the UK have woken up, taken notes from us, President Trump and are ready to throw out illegals.

The Trump administration is escalating its immigration operations in Democratic cities in the wake of a Supreme Court ruling giving the government the ability to conduct immigration stops based on an individual’s ethnicity or whether they speak Spanish. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Monday morning announced “Operation Patriot 2.0” in Massachusetts and announced “Operation Midway Blitz” in Chicago roughly an hour after the Supreme Court decision came down. The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to lift a lower court’s ruling that barred racial profiling as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers roved Los Angeles. The timing of the...

The Trump administration is suing migrants with removal orders and issuing fines of up to $1.8 million to pressure them into self-deporting, immigration attorneys tell ABC News. In recent months, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has revived a rarely enforced 1996 law, using it to issue fines to migrants with deportation orders as part of the administration's aggressive immigration crackdown. ICE said it had issued more than 10,000 fines. The fines include between $100 and $500 for each unlawful entry or attempted entry, and up to $998 per day, assessed for up to five years, for failing to comply with a...

On Monday’s “Alex Marlow Show,” Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) talked about sending the Guard to Chicago. Miller said, “My hope is that he comes in with the National Guard today…I think he absolutely has the authority to do it. … He’s proven he can do it by going into DC and in two weeks, tamping down the crime there in a way that nobody’s ever seen before. And so, I’m very hopeful, in fact, I don’t even think it’s that he’s thinking about coming to Chicago, I think he has promised to come to Chicago and do what he did...

The early economic returns on President Trump’s immigration enforcement are unambiguous: American workers are winning. After decades of being told that mass immigration was an economic necessity, the data from Trump’s first eight months in office tell a different story—one where reducing foreign worker competition translates directly into higher wages and improved living standards for native-born Americans. The foreign-born workforce has contracted by nearly one million workers since January, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data released Friday. This represents a complete reversal of the 2024 trend, when foreign-born workers provided essentially all U.S. job growth, adding over 2 million...

BROADVIEW, Ill. — The ICE detention center in west suburban Broadview continues to be the center of large scale immigration raids expected across the Chicago area. President Donald Trump’s appointed “border czar,” Tom Homan, saying Chicago should expect stepped up raids this week. That was backed up Monday afternoon by a post on the Department of Homeland Security’s website. Meanwhile, at the processing facility in Broadview, WGN News has seen a number of people coming on their own accord, saying that they’ve been summoned by immigration officials. Others are being brought in by agents

35-year-old Hugo Hernandez-Mendez, an illegal alien from Guatemala, brutally murdered a Maryland teen and threw her body off a bridge last month. 19-year-old Dacara Thompson went missing two weeks ago after she left her father’s house to put gas in her car. Surveillance video from the gas station shows Dacara Thompson approaching Hernandez-Mendez’s vehicle. After speaking to him for about a minute, she gets into the passenger side. Police said they drove to the suspect’s home, where he may have sexually assaulted Thompson before killing her in his bedroom. Hernandez-Mendez threw Thompson’s body off a highway bridge in the Annapolis...

On Sunday's CNN State of the Union, Tom Homan gave an absolute master class in dealing with the liberal media on the issue of ICE operations. Host Jake Tapper might have thought he'd put Homan, President Trump's border czar, on the defensive by opening the interview by citing a meme Trump posted, based on the movie Apocalypse Now, in which Trump said, "Chicago is about to find out why it's called the Department of War." Tapper cast that as Trump "escalating his threats against the city of Chicago." It took Homan about five seconds to demolish Tapper's fear-mongering claim. "We're...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Monday cleared the way for federal agents to conduct sweeping immigration operations in Los Angeles, the latest victory for President Donald Trump’s administration at the high court. The conservative majority lifted a restraining order from a judge who found that “roving patrols” were conducting indiscriminate arrests in LA. The order had barred agents from stopping people solely based on their race, language, job or location.Trump’s Republican administration argued the order wrongly restricted agents carrying out its widespread crackdown on illegal immigration. U.S. District Judge Maame E. Frimpong in Los Angeles had found a...

JD Vance pushed back against an anti-Trump social media personality Saturday after he criticized a post the vice president made on X. The clash between Vance and Brian Krassenstein began when Vance wrote, "Killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens is the highest and best use of our military." Vance made the remark following a U.S. military strike against an alleged drug-laden Venezuelan boat in the southern Caribbean. Officials said 11 suspected Tren de Aragua narco-terrorists were killed on Tuesday. When Krassenstein responded that "killing the citizens of another nation who are civilians without any due process is called...

From the LA Times: The Supreme Court ruled Monday for the Trump administration and agreed U.S. immigration agents may stop and detain anyone they suspect is in the U.S. illegally based on little more than working at a car wash,...

Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky strongly objected after Vice President JD Vance asserted in a Saturday post on X that "Killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens is the highest and best use of our military." "JD ‘I don’t give a s[---]’ Vance says killing people he accuses of a crime is the ‘highest and best use of the military.’ Did he ever read To Kill a Mockingbird? Did he ever wonder what might happen if the accused were immediately executed without trial or representation??" Senator Paul wrote.
