Donald Trump's administration announced a fresh mass operation against illegal immigrants in Chicago. The Department of Homeland safety (DHS) launched an action aimed at persons residing illegally in the United States.

Pritzker and his asylum policy for immigrants would supply them with protection and let them to decision freely on American streets". According to DHS, the action is conducted in honor of Katie Abraham, a female fatally hit by a car driven by an illegal immigrant in Illinois.

Preparations and protests

The ICE service, whose task is to enforce immigration law, has been preparing for action for a week, placing its agents in town. News of the planned action has appeared in fresh days, and on Saturday, local activists protested plans.

This is another ICE mass action in Chicago. Although according to DHS, the intent of the operation is simply a criminal, statistic indicate that the number of arrested without a criminal evidence has increased equally.

Trump military threats

The announcement of the operation occurred erstwhile president Donald Trump publically threatened to send troops to Chicago to fight crime. Trump originally announced that he would do so, although he had not yet chosen the time.

He then suggested, however, that he must first receive an invitation from the authorities of the city or state of Illinois. politician J.B. Pritzker claimed that sending troops would constitute an illegal "invasion" of his state, and the Illinois and Chicago authorities do not cooperate with national law enforcement authorities in most immigration cases.

Controversial rhetoric

On the weekend Trump published on his community portal fact Social graphics depicting him as Colonel Kilgore from the movie "Time of the Apocalypse". The image (with the inscription "Chipocapsa Time") was joined by a paraphrase of the celebrated quote from the film, "I love the odor of deportation in the morning...".

"Chicago will see why the Ministry of War is called that now" - he added. Trump later argued that he did not endanger the Chicago war and assured that his intention was not to harm anyone but criminals.

On Monday, during the inauguration of the White home Committee on spiritual Freedom, Trump one more time stated that "he would like to enter Chicago and make a deal with him." He argued against the facts that by sending troops to Washington, the crime in the capital had dropped almost to zero. "If a man gets into a small fight with his wife, they'll say it's a crime. And thus I cannot say that (crime) fell by 100 percent" - he added, appearing in the Bible Museum.
