Stunning Fox News Footage Captures ICE Raids In ‘Sanctuary City’
Trending Politics ^ | 1/23/2025 | Mark Steffen

Fox News reporters embedded with U.S. Customs and Immigration (ICE) raids witnessed a stunning series of arrests in Boston on Wednesday, where violent, illegal immigrant criminals vowed to go down fighting.

Video footage of raids in the Hispanic enclave of East Boston captured the dramatic scene as MS-13 gang members, murderers convicted abroad, and individuals with Interpol Red Notices were apprehended. As he was being handcuffed and loaded into an ICE vehicle, a man with 17 criminal convictions yelled he was “never going back to Haiti.”

“F*** Trump, you feel me? Yo, Biden forever bro!” the Haitian man yelled in front of the Fox camera. “Thank Obama for everything that he did for me, bro!”

An endless string of targets had ICE agents moving from one street to the next, quickly taking down its next target in the form of an illegal immigrant man from Brazil with an Interpol Red Notice for armed robbery. A third Salvadoran illegal alien was charged locally with rape but released under sanctuary city policies prevalent across Massachusetts in cities like Boston.

Throughout the day, more arrests underscored the shocking fact that some of America’s most dangerous criminals are allowed to walk the streets of major cities because local officials refuse to cooperate with their arrest and deportation. A Dominican man charged with heroin trafficking and assault with a deadly weapon was the fourth apprehension of the day for ICE’s Boston team.

MS-13, a sprawling gang founded in Los Angeles, has exploded across the country in recent years as El Salvadoran and Guatemalan gang members have flocked to fill its ranks. ICE officers on Wednesday arrested one member in East Boston wanted on gun charges but released by local authorities one day earlier. He was living amid law-abiding residents, one of whom yelled “thank you” to the officers as they loaded him into their SUV.

Patricia Hyde, acting director for Boston’s ICE field office, explained how the raid also resulted in the arrest of another illegal immigrant living with the MS-13 gang member but not affiliated with him. This “collateral” pickup symbolizes the Trump administration’s new commitment to zero-tolerance, she said.

“When we went to go find [the gang member], he was with somebody else who was previously removed from the United States,” she told Fox. “So he’s gonna go today, too.”

“Today was a good day. Today we took several significant public safety threats out of our communities. Unfortunately, a lot were released by sanctuary city policies. But we’re here to tell the Commonwealth and the rest of the country that we’re gonna find them whether they’re released or not.”

Elsewhere around Boston on Wednesday, ICE officers captured a man who entered the U.S. on a flight as part of former President Joe Biden’s mass parole program. He was picked up after being arrested on charges of sexual assault.

A second individual was arrested after facing charges of raping a woman while holding a gun to her head.

Shortly before President Trump was sworn in, media outlets began reporting on a growing trend of “self-deportation” by illegal immigrants fearful of being arrested and deported to Mexico. Under new President Claudia Sheinbaum, Mexican authorities have agreed to accept an increased number of non-Mexican deportees, leaving illegal immigrants fearful that they will be exploited there by human trafficking gangs. Instead, immigration attorneys say, they are choosing to return to their home countries voluntarily.

That Haitian O’bama and Biden buttboy was a real hoot. Seventeen convictions. He said he couldn’t have done it without O’Bama and Biden’s help.

Excellent work.

Time to scrape that manner of human excrement off the soles of our shoes and deposit it back to its origin.

Lock up any politicians or local LEOs who are ‘only following orders’ in violating the rule of law in our country.

I know of some empty D.C. jail cells this morning...

Arrests and deportations don’t happen amorphously.

Speaking of that, can anyone determine just when that DC jail used on J6 Prisoners was built? Who approved it? At what cost? Was it used for other purposes prior to incarceration and processing J6 inmates? Is it possible it was built just for purposes of political dissent, and built by leftist authoritarians just for that purpose?

Who knows how many crimes (violent and property) are being prevented by these actions?

How hard is it for anyone to see that? Yet the libs only feel the “pain” of the criminal invaders.

Those two should be arrested as well being accomplices.

Tom Homan said on Day 2 they’ve already started. Tom Homan wasn’t kidding, and never was kidding. He’s doing exactly what he said.

Excellent hire.

Sounds like they aided and abetted the little Haitian boy with his crimes.

Interesting. Trump has done more in 4 days to protect US citizens from illegal aliens who are also criminals than Biden/Harris did in 4 years!

Apprehended violent gang-member illegal immigrants yelling into the camera (on public video): "Yo, Biden forever, bro!" "Thank Obama for everything he did for me!"

You can't make this stuff up. Yet over 75 Million Dumb Democrat voters will continue idiotically voting for anti-America Democrat politicians.

Do you think that video will ever appear on CBS, NBC, CNN, PBS, MSNBC, ABC, etc.? Do you think Moron Colbert or Moron Kimmel will ever show that video?
