ICE to begin major deportation operations this week

[Morphine Prince 109,712]

Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials are planning a major enforcement operation that will target immigrants for several days following the inauguration of Donald Trump as president, according to a document reviewed by NBC News and a person familiar with the planning.

The person, who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the operation, said multiple locations across Chicago will be targeted.

According to the document, the operation is expected to start as early as Tuesday and end by the following Monday, but the dates could change.

ICE officials referred NBC News to the Trump transition team for comment, and the transition team did not respond. In an exclusive interview with NBC News’ Kristen Welker on Saturday, Trump declined to describe any details of the operation but said mass deportations would begin “very early, very quickly.”

“We’re already geared up and it will begin,” he said. “We have to get the criminals that have come here illegally out of our country.”

Operations in other cities are also possible. Before NBC News reviewed the document, several sources familiar with the planning said major metropolitan areas that could see early enforcement actions include the Washington, D.C., area, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Denver and Chicago.

As a candidate, Trump promised the largest deportation operation in American history. A 2022 federal estimate said that as many as 11 million undocumented migrants lived in the U.S., but the exact number today is unknown.

Very scary... I have a feeling some people will mysteriously disappear or die. Do we have news about that concentration camp in Texas?

And why Chicago exactly? As a non-american, is there something specific happening there for it to be their main priority?

No, it’s just a liberal stronghold that’s often used in conservative propaganda to claim that liberal cities are criminal hotbeds.

There is never any logic involved with conservatives.

How the hell are they gonna know who is undocumented or not?  

But congrats to Trump for saving Tik Tok or whatever

And how exactly are they going to implement this if it isn’t by racial profiling? Also, the only way they will be able to keep people detained is by sending them to camps. If implemented, this will be disgusting and cruel. I expect the UCLA and other advocacy groups to be ready to aid in civil and human rights lawsuits.

The simple answer is they will racial profile everyone. They'll just round up the "funny colours" and send some home.

As messed up as this is, I wanna see how the Latinos for Trump s will handle being racially profiled.

My mom (white) keeps popping off how great trump will be and I can’t wait for all the voters to get absolutely ****ed for voting for him. Sometimes the only way the ignorant learn is through a hard lesson. 
 

sucks that the people who weren’t dumb have to also suffer for the mistake
