ICE Now Grabbing People Out Of Churches

Chicago — ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), in an ever-expanding unconstitutional crime spree, is ushering in the Christmas season by launching immigration raids inside churches across the country. Trump’s holiday gift to the nation is the administration’s new policy that it is legal to enter churches as people worship and round them up in the immigration raids happening from coast to coast. Not waiting for the fightback on the part of immigrants and their supporters that has already begun, ICE agents began their terror campaign here in Chicago on a recent Sunday.

ICE Raids Turn Schools Into Battlegrounds To Defend Students

Educator Carolyn Brown was meeting with school counselors when she got the call: ICE agents were out front. By the time she got out of the building, ICE had abducted a woman and her 17-year-old daughter, an American citizen. Brown, a coordinator of the International Baccalaureate program at Thomas Kelly College Prep, is also part of the rapid-response team for the school, in a Mexican enclave in Chicago’s Little Village neighborhood. The ICE agents were gone, for the moment. But in the stores across the street, people were too frightened to venture out.

Tribal IDs Are Federally Recognized; ICE Agents Are Ignoring Them

During last year’s Idaho election, a Republican state senator lost his composure when a candidate forum turned to the topic of racism. Trish Carter-Goodheart, a Democratic candidate and citizen of the Nez Perce Tribe, spoke plainly: Racism and discrimination remain real and persistent in Idaho, pointing to the state’s history of white supremacist enclaves in northern Idaho. The senator denied any racism existed. When the conversation hit a nerve, he abruptly stormed out, shouting to Carter-Goodheart, “Why don’t you go back to where you came from?”

New Yorkers Foil ICE Raid Before It Begins

For the second time in just over a month, a large-scale raid by dozens of immigration agents in New York City was met with a similarly large-scale counter-protest. This time, however, the protesters thwarted the authorities' plans before they began. Multiple arrests were made on Saturday during scuffles on the edge of Chinatown, during which hundreds of protesters faced off with federal agents, eventually supported by the New York Police Department (NYPD), as they prepared to launch a raid in the area. It comes just a month after a raid by 50 federal agents using military-style vehicles stormed nearby Canal Street in Lower Manhattan, and was met with a protest of hundreds in response.

Minnesotans Demand ICE Out Of Twin Cities

St. Paul, MN – Dozens of Minnesotans gathered in the pouring rain on Tuesday, November 25 to show their solidarity with those affected by federal immigration raids. The Trump administration is launching racist attacks through ICE in Saint Paul. Meanwhile there are no official protections for the most vulnerable against this violence. The rally by the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee (MIRAC) took place outside of Bro-Tex Inc. in Saint Paul. It is a manufacturing company where an ICE raid took place one week earlier on November 18.

NYC To ICE: Get Out!

Many New Yorkers now carry a whistle to sound the alarm when they see teams of armed masked agents in fatigues and tactical gear who have started to menace the city, from Washington Heights to East Elmhurst. Others are texting each other in groups they created on the encrypted messaging app Signal. “I was getting notifications in our chat that ICE was knocking on doors, so we rushed over here to see what was happening,” said a Bensonhurst resident, who told AMNY they saw agents abduct a woman described as a young mother with an 8-month old baby.

Detroit Students Fight To Save Classmates Kidnapped By ICE

Detroit, Illinois - A wave of anger and mobilization is sweeping through Detroit following the detention of two 16-year-old high school students and their families by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) last week. The teens, asylum seekers from Venezuela, were seized from their home in an early morning raid, which ignited condemnation from teachers, students, and immigrant rights organizations, who are all demanding their immediate release. The students, cousins who are active members of the Western International High School community, were detained along with two of their parents on the morning of Thursday, November 20.

ICE Sent 600 Immigrant Kids To Federal Detention This Year

It was Friday, June 6, and the rent was due. As soon as she finished an errand, Imelda Carreto planned on joining her family as they gathered scrap metal to earn a little extra cash. Her fiancé, Julio Matias, and 15-year-old nephew, Carlos, had set out early, hitching a trailer to the back of their beat-up gray truck. Shortly after 8 a.m., Carreto’s phone rang. It was Carlos, telling her an officer with the Florida Highway Patrol had pulled over the truck on Interstate 4 near Tampa. The stated reason: cracks in their windshield. But Carreto was worried. She knew Florida police were collaborating with federal immigration authorities.

New Orleans: Hundreds March Against Border Patrol Deployment

New Orleans, LA – On Saturday, November 22, hundreds of New Orleans residents from all walks of life gathered to protest against the new presence of U.S. Border Patrol agents in the city. The protest, led by the New Orleans Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression, gathered local activists to send a message to Trump and Jeff Landry that the city will not bow down to attacks on immigrants. “The time is now to follow suit with Los Angeles, with Chicago, to take these streets and fight back against this invasion,” said Emma Maxwell from the New Orleans Alliance.

As Immigrant Youth Come Under Attack, Schools Try To Protect Them

In Sanctuary School: Innovating to Empower Immigrant Youth, Molloy University assistant professor of education Chandler Patton Miranda presents an in-depth and emotionally resonant look at a network of 31 small public high schools in seven states that provide “radical welcome, protection and empowerment” to migrant youth from 119 countries. The Internationals Network for Public Schools was initially founded in 2004 in Queens, New York, but it now has expanded to serve schools in California, Maryland, and Washington, D.C., among other locations.

FBI Allegedly Targeted Filipino American Journalist Now In Detention

Filipino American journalist Ya'akub Vijandre was allegedly targeted by the FBI in retaliation for his refusal to become an informant. The FBI reviewed Vijandre’s immigration record and social media posts, and then recommended that immigration services terminate his DACA status, according to Vijandre’s attorneys.  Vijandre is currently detained at a for-profit ICE detention center in Folkston, Georgia, operated by GEO Group. He was arrested “at gunpoint” outside his home in Arlington, Texas, on October 7, 2025.  The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) pointed to his reporting on pro-Palestinian protests and various cases in the “global war on terrorism” to justify their actions.

Immigration Raids At This Home Depot Got More Aggressive But Less Effective

Arturo had only ever seen agents at the border before, never in Los Angeles. But on Friday, June 6, the Department of Homeland Security descended on a Home Depot near MacArthur Park. As on any other morning, Arturo had arrived at the store to wait alongside more than a hundred jornaleros for a day, or even a few hours, of construction work. He saw people running and heard screams of “la migra” before he laid eyes on the men in fatigues or understood that they were making arrests. He broke into a run, following a crowd through the store’s automatic doors.

How ICE Is Terrorizing Chicago’s Working Class

When federal immigration agents thread through her Chicago neighborhood and circle above her home in a helicopter, Araceli hides with her husband. ​“You hear the whistles,” she says through an interpreter. ​“You hear the people yelling, ​‘Don’t go out! Stay inside! There’s immigration here!’ ”  Sometimes they are forced to hide for days.  “It’s alarming, it’s not normal, it’s like being in a crisis,” explains Araceli, who is 55 and originally from Mexico City, though she has lived in Chicago for 30 years. That means Araceli often misses work as an apartment cleaner and her husband misses work in construction.

31 Protesters Arrested Outside Krome Detention Center, ‘Alligator Alcatraz’

West Miami-Dade, Florida - Hours after over two dozen activists were arrested outside Krome Detention Center, some of those arrestees bonded out of jail. 7News cameras captured a dozen young people wearing “ICE kidnapped my neighbor” T-shirts making their way out of the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Facility in Northwest Miami-Dade on Sunday morning. The protesters walked out of jail after Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office deputies arrested 31 people, most of them with the Sunrise Movement, as they protested what they said were the cruel deportation practices of the Trump administration.

Charlotte Students Lead Mass Action Against Immigration Raids

As federal agents swept through Charlotte, North Carolina, the first and most powerful pushback came from the students — the young people who showed what solidarity looks like in action. On Nov. 17, more than 30,000 Charlotte-Mecklenburg students stayed home in a coordinated “sickout” to protest a federal operation targeting immigrant neighborhoods. By the end of the week, more than 56,000 students had refused to attend school, making it one of the largest student-led actions against immigration raids anywhere in the country.
