Chicago mayor vows city police ‘will not ever cooperate with ICE’

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson vowed Tuesday that his city “will not ever cooperate with ICE”

“You know, again, it’s unconscionable at a time in which so many working people and poor people need government to show up for them, that this administration, the Trump administration, has caused so much consternation and division,” Johnson said Tuesday during a press conference.

Johnson was responding to a question about whether the city would “set up local police perimeters around schools to shield students from federal agents without warrants.”

“Look, we are welcoming city ordinance,” Johnson said. “Our local police department will not ever cooperate with ICE, whatever their constitutional authority is. That is obviously relegated to the Trump administration. All of our sister agencies, city departments have been thoroughly briefed by a corporate counsel, and I’ll pass it over to her in a second about what they can and cannot do.”

Johnson has been vocal about his criticism of ICE.

Last month, he urged House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., to “speak up” regarding ICE’s immigration enforcement that the mayor characterized as “terrorism.”

Isn’t this the racist jerk with the 8% approval rating? I really wouldn’t be interested in paying attention to anything a racist little biatch from Chicongo says.

The boy is busting his *** trying to hold a voter base together even if it is made up of illegal alien criminal invaders.

They don't need gov't. They need a job that isn't being taken by illegal immigrants.

"What do you expect . . .it’s Illinois."

Not Illinois but rather metro shitcago area. Rest of state pretty much thinks and votes like Wyoming. Blue outlier counties are college centers/trash.

They don’t ever cooperate with trying to stop drive by shootings on those lovely Chicongo Drive by weekends either.
