Trump orders expanded ICE raids in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York City targeting Democratic strongholds
UNITED STATES, JUN 18 – President Trump ordered ICE to increase daily arrests to 3,000 aiming for the largest mass deportation in history targeting Democratic-run cities amid widespread protests and violent clashes.
- On Sunday, June 15, President Donald Trump directed ICE to intensify deportation efforts focused on major metropolitan areas governed by Democrats, including the largest cities on the West Coast, Midwest, and East Coast.
- This directive followed escalating ICE raids that triggered nationwide protests starting in Los Angeles, culminating in coordinated 'No Kings' demonstrations on June 14.
- Following White House directives, ICE raised its target for daily arrests from roughly 650 to 3,000, while temporarily halting the detention of non-criminal undocumented workers employed in agriculture and hospitality.
- Trump affirmed that nothing could prevent the administration from carrying out its mission, while also recognizing that enforcement actions have affected farmers and hotel workers who have lost long-term employees due to deportations.
- The expanded deportation plan suggests a firm administration focus on reducing illegal immigration in political strongholds, despite protests and mixed public reactions.
