President Donald Trump threatened Illinois's biggest city with a 'Chipocalypse' ahead of expected Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids.
Trump, 79, took to his social media platform, Truth Social, on Saturday to post a meme about himself, where he wrote: 'I love the smell of deportations in the morning.
'Chicago about to find out why it's called the Department of WAR.'
Trump rebranded the Pentagon to the Department of War this week.
The White House reposted it on X with three helicopter emojis.
Governor JB Pritzker responded to Trump's post on X, writing: 'The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.
'This is not a joke. This is not normal.
'Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.'
Trump's threat comes as ICE readies a raid on the Windy City after Trump said he selected it for the next federal military takeover.
The Department of Homeland Security asked the Pentagon to have access to Naval Station Great Lakes - the largest military base in Illinois - to base the operation, The Washington Post reported.
The request said that around 250 federal agents and 140 vehicles would utilize the base.
National Guard troops could also be sent in to assist the effort, according to The Chicago Sun-Times.
Equipment and personnel started arriving at the naval base earlier this week. One MAGA radio personality has branded it the beginning of 'the siege of Chicago.'
Governor JB Pritzker warned the raids could start on Saturday.

Prickster might over inflate and pop.
The bravado is silly
I love it. Chicago deserves this smackdown with their perennial flouting of the law.
“Trump, 79, took to his social media platform...”
Trolling is his game.
No. He's George Patton, you're the Vichy French.
It’s ok to mention Trump’s age as long as they mention Prickster’s weight and body mass ratio.
Prickster and Let’s Go Brandon daren’t interfere, so all they have are inflammatory rhetoric.
Hillary Rodham Clinton’s hometown.
Obama, too.
Rumor has it that JFK’s father Patrick Kennedy stole the 1960 election from Nixon in Chicago with the help of Sam Giancana.
Long, long overdue to clean out this cesspool.
CFP yesterday reported that 25% of the population is Mexican.
Brandon and Obama are trying to save their imported illegal voters.
This is gonna be wild to watch.
What are the odds that an ICE agent or Guardsman gets shot ?
No mention of the ICONIC “Apocalypse Now” that Trump is portraying ?????
One of MANY iconic scenes from an iconic movie and it doesn’t even get a mention????
BEST meme YET!
“’The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.”
Its the “WAR ON CRIME” you IDIOT!
You know that isn’t the way lame stream noose will report it. They’ll portray it as our tianeman(sp) square with prickster standing in front of a prius.
Why do they always mention Trump’s age, 79? But they don’t mention Pritzker’s weight, 825 lbs.?
I’ll bet 25 ALYSSA was crying when she wrote this.
👌 👀
Instead of Pritzker’s age, they should post his weight.
Carpet bomb the city..(except for my girl friends house). Yes, she is probably the only Trump lover in the city, for real.
