Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has arrested more than 800 illegal aliens across the sanctuary state of Illinois.
The arrests have been part of ICE’s Operation Midway Blitz — in honor of 20-year-old Katie Abraham, who was killed with her friend Chloe Polzin in a hit-and-run drunk driving crash caused by an illegal alien in the sanctuary state.
“During Operation Midway Blitz, DHS law enforcement has made more than 800 arrests across Illinois,” the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement:
The Trump Administration will not allow violent criminals or repeat offenders to terrorize our neighborhoods or victimize our children and innocent Americans. We will not allow sanctuary politicians or violent rioters to stop us from enforcing the law and arresting pedophiles, murderers, gang members, rapists, and domestic abusers from American communities. [Emphasis added]

Enforcing federal immigration law in Illinois has been an uphill battle for ICE agents, who not only face opposition from Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D), but also from left-wing activists who have been rioting outside detention facilities.
Most recently, such activists chanted “Kill ICE!” and “Shoot ICE!” outside the Broadview Processing Center in Broadview, Illinois, just days after a gunman opened fire on an ICE facility in Dallas, Texas.
