Many thanks for the great collection/news recap....for all of the work to post...and, for the ping.
I was going to quit doing this but I am compelled by forces beyond my control.
BTW - this is a MUST LISTEN! I'll try to find the whole thing. POTUS talking, I guess to some "news" maggots while at a meeting with GOP leaders today. He's talking about the insane cities - 2:06 minute video

And this, haha - POTUS is giving big announcement tomorrow about what he’s “going to do” in the cities (and other stuff) but he’s doing already. Usually when he announces, it means it’s already happening. Look out, Lori “the lizard” Lightfoot! More at link, too bad about deportations. But once illegals get arrested, then BP can deport them. :-D
Homeland Security making plans to deploy some 150 agents in Chicago this week, with scope of duty unknown
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is crafting plans to deploy about 150 federal agents to Chicago this week, the Chicago Tribune has learned, a move that would come amid growing controversy nationally about federal force being used in American cities.
The Homeland Security Investigations, or HSI, agents are set to assist other federal law enforcement and Chicago police in crime-fighting efforts, according to sources familiar with the matter, though a specific plan on what the agents will be doing had not been made public.
One city official said the city was aware of the plan but not any specifics. The Chicago Police Department had no immediate comment.
One Immigration and Customs Enforcement official in Chicago, who asked not to be named because they were not authorized to speak on the matter, confirmed the deployment was expected to take place. The official noted that the HSI agents, who are part of ICE, would not be involved in immigration or deportation matters.
