Top Trump administration officials, including 'border czar' Tom Homan and the acting deputy attorney general, visited Chicago on Sunday to witness the start of ramped-up immigration enforcement in the nation's third-largest city. The operation involved multiple federal agencies, showcasing President Donald Trump's commitment to using federal law enforcement beyond the Department of Homeland Security for mass deportations.
Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove observed immigration agents from the DHS, FBI, DEA, and ATF. The operation, which came after DHS expanded immigration authority to agencies in the Department of Justice, aimed to address obstruction and unlawful impediments to homeland security efforts.
