Immigration Raids 'Haven't Gone Far Enough' In Chicago, Trump Says
Trump claims liberal judges limit ICE raids in Chicago and calls for tougher actions amid protests and detentions of individuals with minimal criminal history.
- On Sunday in Chicago, President Donald Trump backed federal immigration raids, saying agents `haven't gone far enough` during a 60 Minutes interview.
- Blaming liberal judges, Trump argued that courts have constrained raids, saying many people apprehended are `murderers & criminals`, Trump said.
- Detentions occurred Monday across several Chicago neighborhoods, including Uptown, Edgewater, Ravenswood, Albany Park and West Ridge, while federal immigration agents used tear gas, pepper balls and rubber bullets, killing one.
- Local leaders and residents criticized the operations and sought peaceful resistance, while housing advocates said tenants are falling behind on rent as Brighton Park neighbors rallied Saturday.
- Raids are part of Operations Midway Blitz and At Large, and Trump raised the prospect of using the Insurrection Act to bring in the Army and Marines to Chicago.
