(Newsweek) JB Pritzker Looking at Prosecuting ICE Agents in Chicago

I disagree with this.

If they have children that are American citizens, those children have the right to live in the US. If that means that a parent, us citizen or not, has to stay with them, then it should be allowed.

It's unfair to the child to kick them out of their homeland because their parents are not US citizens.

Come on man! Have a heart!

Appeal to emotion argument. Nope, that’s where we disagree. It isn’t up to the U.S. to allow the parents of U.S. citizens to stay. The children have that right, not the parents. It’s unfair for the U.S. and tax payers to allow it.
 
Sorry if ICE can't run its' own operations without the aid of locals or weekend soldiers they aren't worth a damn.

The whole thing is a show. Nothing more.

They don't need aid from locals to run their operations.

They need aid from the locals to keep from being runover by the restless natives while conducting their operations.
 
Weird. When we do our job policing, we don't need protection.

And no, they get no help here.

Shrug.
I would suspect that when arresting somebody for a crime, you will not go running off after somebody who threw a rock at you. You would deal with what you are there to do.
Someone else would handle that problem.
Working together.
Teamwork makes the dreamwork etc ect ect

No. Need to have a brain on this one.
No birth tourism.

You are describing "anchor babies" - which isn't really a part of US law. It's a complication of decisions by the parents.

The parents should absolutely take care of their child. Generally, with very few exceptions, the child is also a citizen of the country of the parents. The child can live there with the parents until they reach maturity and can make their own decision.
 
It is neither an "attack on a state" or civil war to deploy federal law enforcement within the boundaries of the United States. :rolleyes: Hyperbole and Hysterics aren't going to convince the voters that Democrats have learned their lesson and grown up.



I have no doubt he would be fine if the left decided to descend into civil unrest in response to him attempting to enforce the law. That does not remove the left's agency in doing so.




Oh look. You complain about texts, but aren't willing to divest from Jones, even as the GOP divests from the YR morons, and instead pivot to mean ole Trump.

While complaining about others spewing hate.

How utterly unsurprising.


Refusing to deal with and divest from their own violent psychotics and crazies also won't convince the normies to come back. It will only convince them that the Democrat Party doesn't divest from these people because they partly are these people.




The most effective ads, actually, are variations of Democrats-In-Their-Own-Words.




It is not and the suggestion that it is is ridiculous to anyone who is familiar with actual civil war.



Bro you are sitting in half an inch of water in a bathtub, and claiming to be drowning in the ocean.
Trump’s white house press secretary said the democratic party is made up of “Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals”.

Pity that so many lack the courage to stand up for American values.
 
Thanks for providing conservatives don’t know what “Stalinism” is.

And try to blather about people being fat is hilarious. Have you looked at your Dear Leader lately?
Show me the man and I'll show you the crime. He'll find crimes against ICE agents. Very Stalin like.

ICE has captured and brutalized dozens of American citizens. Maybe they should stop committing crimes if they don’t want to be held accountable.

Somebody has to enforce federal laws. God knows, Biden didn't. That's why there is such a mess for them to clean up now.

Again, they are literally throwing American citizens in these camps. They aren’t “enforcing the law” in any sense.
 
. . . and ICE is now barred from entering court houses without a proper judicial warrant.

Here:



This might get interesting. Cook County courthouses all have metal detectors manned by Cook County Sheriffs. It's a slow single file individual one-by-one admittance process.

You step up to the metal detector, remove any items on your person, including metal belt buckles, putting these items in a tray where they examine the try contents by hand.

Then you proceed through the detector. If it doesn't go off, you are then allow through the second security barricade. If the detector goes off as you pass through the detectors, the Sheriffs use a hand-held wand detector over your body - to identify the item causing the detector to go off.

I don't see how ICE can get through, unless they were to storm the blockade en masse in a firefight.

Below are an images that appear to be taken at an off time. Usually there are long lines and at least 3-4 Sheriffs present immediately at the detectors, along with a second security line of several Sheriffs behind that in front of the inner doors behind the detectors. In between the two Sheriffs' security lines, are Sheriffs screening those who set-off the detectors, where they use hand-held wands.

Let me guess, a district judge? Will eventually lose on appeal for being unconstitutional. Passageways in court buildings are considered public property. If the general public has access to those areas, so does ICE and law enforcement. A judge can’t bar law enforcement from public places to do their jobs.

We seen that with Judge Hannah Dugan that’s under indictment for helping an immigrant to escape. She also claimed a judicial warrant is needed in public areas, which was also false. A judicial warrant is only needed in private spaces.

So much for ratcheting down the hateful rhetoric. Instead the Trump WH is inflaming the situation. The worse part is there are many Americans, including some here, who are perfectly OK with this type of language coming from the President of the United States. It's just so darn un-American but then again who knows what American values are anymore or if they even exist?
 
There is due process.
ICE is picking up people who are deportable under the law.
As determined via due process.
OR-- they will receive due process while detained.

This isn't true.

They have no access to courts, lawyers, or judges, no habeas corpus.

To gain access to the building you need to document your business, and be weapon-free. It's not unfettered access.

(Newsweek) Ambitious JB Pritzker Looking at 2028 Presidential Prospects​


That Pritzker's standing-up for democracy, Constitution, and the rule of law, attracts voters - should be no surprise. Those are fundamental American values.
 
I live in Chicago.

Funnily enough, there’s no news reports of ICE being slaughtered or whatever.

They're carpetbaggers, Tigerace117. Judging Chicagoans from afar, through partisan sources, attempting to exert the will where it don't belong.
 
How dare he, um, be a politician, by, um standing up to an authoritarian presidential overreach....
Yeah. That's what he's doing. uh huh. He's totally sincere.
Being on the wrong side of issues now will not help him in a National election.
Calling Antifa and criminal illegals "my people" was stupid as was making believe there is no violence in Chicago and at the ICE facility.
And standing on the Monroe Street bridge to shoot a video about how peaceful Chicago is with his own personal security off camera is simply a lie.
And for a big gambler like him, stupid bets.

This is really rich, coming from the perspective of supporting the Trump Administration!
