The sanctuary city of Chicago is turning zero criminal illegal aliens over to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency for arrest and deportation in part thanks to Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) protections for gang members and felons.
In the third quarter of 2022, city records show that none of the three ICE detainers filed with Chicago police — requesting custody of criminal illegal aliens — were honored. Likely hundreds, potentially thousands, more illegal aliens were arrested in Chicago during the period, but ICE agents have been restricted in issuing detainers by the Biden administration.
The refusal to honor any ICE detainers by Chicago officials is the result of Lightfoot’s expanded sanctuary city policy.
In February 2021, Lightfoot signed the expansion which prohibited local police from cooperating with ICE even in cases where arrested illegal aliens are in the gang database, are convicted felons, have pending criminal charges, or have outstanding warrants.
Lightfoot’s expansion came after former Mayor Rahm Emanuel (D) signed Chicago’s initial sanctuary city policy into law in 2012 which prohibited police from questioning suspects about their immigration status.

It’s impossible for a thinking, intelligent, mature adult to deny that the democrat party isn’t a pro-crime party.
If this crime shot it’s tentacles out to their treasured suburbs, they’d see the folly of their opinions, but so long as it’s dusky hued individuals that are the target of terror and violence, they rarely have contact with, let the suffering rule!
If there were a way to make sure that the rich, white liberals in Chicago didn’t have the ability to leave Chicago, to ruin someplace else, who cares?
Build a wall around the city and adjoining Democrat suburbs and let them fend for themselves in their utopia
If you’re a Republican and can prove it, you can move out.
Belgian Malinois don’t care.
It’s OK to not turn ‘em over to the feds, as long as they take ‘em out back and shoot em! SPJNK.
