The field reporter then played interviews and b-roll where she spoke with local business owners who had plastered their establishments with posters stating \u201cdon\u2019t open for ICE,\u201d thereby preventing them from accidentally giving immigration authorities permission to enter their homes and conduct a search.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0Daily Mail\u00a0spotlighted some of the most outraged reactions by social media users.<\/p>\n
\u201cImagine if Chicago had an unbiased media that served the interests of the public not the interests of the WOKE Democrats who it carries water for,\u201d one user wrote on X. \u201cHOW IS THIS ALLOWED?? They are here ILLEGALLY,\u201d another user wrote.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat rights should illegal aliens have?\u201d another added. \u201cDoesn\u2019t this make her an accessory? Or something of that nature? Send her to jail,\u201d wrote another. \u201cThings will not get cleaned up until there are consequences for choices media are responsible for where they point their cameras and what comes out of their mouth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Under an executive order signed by President Donald Trump on Tuesday, \u201csensitive\u201d establishments like schools and churches are now fair game for ICE agents to enter as they seek to pull dangerous illegal immigrant criminals off the street as well as any \u201ccollateral\u201d pickups that come with their deployments.<\/p>\n
\u201cCriminals will no longer be able to hide in America\u2019s schools and churches to avoid arrest. The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement, and instead trusts them to use common sense,\u201d a spokesperson with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security told ABC7.<\/p>\n
Across Chicago this week, liberal members of the Chicago Teachers Union, as well as left-leaning religious leaders, told Gallardo they are \u201cpreparing\u201d to shield their children and parishioners from ICE activities as best they can.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe started attending know your rights training so that we could know how to defend ourselves and our students, if anyone tries to, if ICE tries to communicate with us or potentially detain somebody,\u201d Erin, a Chicago Public Schools teacher, explained.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople need to stick together, no matter their immigration status,\u201d business owner Jose Luis Vasquez said about the \u201cdon\u2019t open for ICE\u201d posters popping up across his Little Village neighborhood.<\/p>\n
Other immigrant rights activists told the ABC affiliate they are prepared to endure sub-zero temperatures for long periods of time if it means they can warn ICE to stay out of their communities.<\/p>\n
\u2018We\u2019ve been out here since 5 am, educating the community, educating our people that they have rights. You have the right to an attorney. You have a right to a trial,\u2019 Baltazar Enriquez, a member of Little Village Community Council, said.<\/p>\n
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, a liberal Democrat rumored to be weighing a 2028 presidential bid, said ICE has \u201cnot communicated\u201d with his administration, but he has reason to believe the number of dangerous illegal individuals on the streets of Chicago is higher than originally believed.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey\u2019ve not communicated with us, so we don\u2019t know when exactly those enforcement actions might take place. We have heard that they\u2019re targeting as many as 2,000 people initially in the city of Chicago alone,\u201d Pritzker said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
