CHICAGO — It was still dark and cold at 5:30 am Thursday when teams of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers hit the streets on “targeted enforcement” missions to arrest criminal illegal migrants.
They call them “the worst of the worst.”
The Post embedded with one team of federal ICE agents who admitted the task of identifying criminal migrants in the sanctuary city – which orders its local law enforcement not to help them – and actually making arrests can be like finding needles in haystacks.
Further complicating matters, local activists, legislators and school administrators in Illinois have been coaching migrants, including criminals charged with sex assaults, weapons violations and worse, on their rights and how to evade ICE agents. Even those detained were fairly brazen.
On Thursday, between 10 teams of about 10 agents each, ICE made only two arrests in Chicago after five hours on the ground.
The Post witnessed Diego Antonio Montero, 24, a Venezuelan national who crossed illegally into the US in May 2023 as he was arrested and put into a caged van by ICE agents.
He was calm and composed and told ICE in Spanish he was not a criminal and was confident he’d go before a judge and be set free.
His record shows otherwise. Chicago police had previously arrested him for criminal trespass, battery, and aggravated assault with the use of a deadly weapon. All charges are pending before the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. An arrest warrant was issued on April 22, 2024, but not honored.

Send the US commies to Venezuela or China.

RICO them all. Arrest those supporting the criminal enterprise and watch the rats scurry.
GITMO for those supporting terrorist invaders as they are “enemy combatants.”
Illegals do not have Constitutional rights.
That’s for citizens.
That’s for citizens.
I know. Read the fine print at the bottom. Typical NGO illegal activity. Hope they get the book thrown at them.
I have a red card for the NGOs:
“Those who aid and abet illegal immigration are criminals.
This is your final warning.”
Start jailing the citizens who are breaking the laws doing this, and add in racketeering and conspiracy charges.
Trump should offer to extradite Soros and his family to Russia as part of a Ukraine peace deal.
That would be sweet!
Fat-ass Pritzker’s fingerprints are all over this.
Delicious. I wish I could be there when the DOJ indicts this treasonous piece of crap.
Strip charity status.
“..Trump should offer to extradite Soros and his family to Russia as part of a Ukraine peace deal....”
^THAT^ would be a big blessing to the USA!!!!
I think I read somewhere that Putin actually wants the Big Fauxi sent to him as part of the peace deal. Putin wants to put the Faux on trial in Russia for crimes against humanity, mass murder, etc.
DO IT, President Trump: send that lying, mass-murdering gnome to Putin to face real justice. Send Scarf with him as a bonus dessert.
The more the merrier.

Easier to go after individuals
Illegals do not have Constitutional rights. That's for citizens.
"Sips of knowledge intoxicate the mind; deeper drinking sobers it again" -- Alexander Pope, An Essay on Criticism
[The Congress shall have Power . . . ] To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.
Eventually, the Supreme Court extended these constitutional protections to all aliens within the United States, including those who entered unlawfully, declaring that aliens who have once passed through our gates, even illegally, may be expelled only after proceedings conforming to traditional standards of fairness encompassed in due process of law. The Court reasoned that aliens physically present in the United States, regardless of their legal status, are recognized as persons guaranteed due process of law by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. Thus, the Court determined, [e]ven one whose presence in this country is unlawful, involuntary, or transitory is entitled to that constitutional protection. Accordingly, notwithstanding Congress’s indisputably broad power to regulate immigration, fundamental due process requirements notably constrained that power with respect to aliens within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.
Changed, no doubt, by leftist *the Constitution is a living document* American haters.
Well, since they’re going after criminals, it’s not illegal search and seizure.
