From Gov. Pritzker today, the president and ICE are not arresting violent offenders, they are arresting tamale vendors.
“What I have been warning of is now being realized,” Pritzker said. " One thing is clear: None of what [President] Trump is doing is making Illinois safer.”
Pritzker urged Chicagoans to record any interactions with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents on their phones, and “narrate what you see, put it on social media.”
“With one voice, we are telling this unwarranted and unconstitutional occupation by ICE and potentially by military troops to get out of Chicago,” Pritzker said. “You are not helping us.”
