While critics on the left express outrage as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers enter blue cities to arrest criminal illegal immigrants, the mayors and governors of these cities insist that all is under control. However, many residents living in these impacted areas welcome the presence of ICE officers. Recently, Portland, Oregon, and Chicago, Illinois, have become focal points of significant anti-ICE protests. Despite claims from elected officials that crime is managed, some are learning that the internet can complicate their narrative efforts.

Can you believe this? @GovPritzker is threatening to prosecute law enforcement for doing their job by arresting criminals like murderers, pedophiles, rapists, drug traffickers, and gang members. This is appalling.

It’s unsurprising that Chicago’s murder rate is significantly higher than the national average under JB Pritzker. His actions seem to be directly contributing to the hostility toward law enforcement. This irresponsible behavior could lead to tragic consequences among those trying to protect us.

Recently, former Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy appeared on “The Will Cain Show,” where he mocked one of Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker’s recent activities. Pritzker visited the Little Village neighborhood and took to Instagram, boasting about how safe he felt while walking around, engaging with small business owners and their patrons. He then made a sarcastic remark about there being “no emergency” that would necessitate sending in federal troops, aiming to discredit concerns over local safety issues.
