As usual, Democrats are playing checkers while President Trump is playing chess. He has given orders to ICE to target Democratic hellholes for criminal illegal aliens. Many Democratic elected officials have mouthed off about what they would do if Trump sends ICE to their cities, most of which is illegal. This will paint them in a corner. If they carry out their threats, they will be arrested. If they don’t, it will make them seem to be all bark and no bite.
Trump posted a Truth Social on Sunday that he is directing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers to expand their deportation operations to sanctuary cities such as Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York. His logic is impeccable because they are bastions for illegal alien criminals, which have inflated the crime rates drastically. As a result, the crime rates will drop and Republicans can take a victory dance and spike the ball.
Trump said:
“I want them to focus on the cities, because the cities are where you really have what’s called sanctuary cities, and that’s where the people are. I look at New York. I look at Chicago. I mean, you got a really bad governor in Chicago and a bad mayor, but the governor is probably the worst in the country — Pritzker — but I look at how that city has been overrun by criminals.”
“Biden allowed 21 million people to come into our country. Of that, vast numbers of those people were murderous killers, people from gangs, people from jails, they empty their jails out into the U.S. Most of those people are in the cities, all blue cities, all Democrat-run cities and they think they’re going to use them to vote. It’s not going to happen.”
“These Radical Left Democrats are sick of mind, hate our Country, and actually want to destroy our Inner Cities — And they are doing a good job of it! There is something wrong with them.”

You don’t hear about Sanctuary Cities in our Heartland!”
The Trump administration has increased its pressure on leaders of sanctuary cities over the last several weeks. Tom Homan told NBC News government officials could face consequences if they obstruct federal agents’ official actions in response to rioting in Los Angeles, California, that resulted from ICE raids. Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York and Democratic Illinois Gov J.B. Pritzker later responded in a House Oversight Committee hearing, daring Homan to come and arrest them.
In May, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security published a comprehensive list of cities, counties and states that were allegedly refusing to cooperate with ICE. The list was later removed after some city leaders argued they shouldn’t be on the list, but White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told the Daily Caller that the list would soon be reinstated.
