I'm in favor of ICE deporting the worst of the worst. I'm not in favor of ICE violating court orders, denying due process, or smashing doors without judicial warrants.
Wow, 96 court orders violated by ICE in less than ONE MONTH!!!
... on Wednesday, Patrick Schiltz, the chief judge for the U.S. District Court of Minnesota, issued a remarkable order that cataloged a total of 96 court orders that he said ICE had violated in 74 different cases. “ICE has likely violated more court orders in January 2026,” the judge wrote, “than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.”
This is the appendix mentioned by Judge Schlitz with the list of court orders violated by ICE https://kstp.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Habeas-Cases-with-Order-Non-Compliance-Jan-28-2026.pdf
@pdockal Sure, I said I was wrong about you mentioning the Biden DoJ starting the investigations. How many more times would you like me to repeat it? And will that be your way of attempting to divert from the points I just made?? What points, you ask. Well!!
OK, as I said, deport the convicted non-citizens! Sounds like those three men got US jail sentences. Thus it sounds like they are US citizens.
This whole Minnesota fraud thing was brought up to accuse and blame the Somali immigrant community for the fraud we've been discussing. Go ahead, deport the convicted non-citizens and jail the convicted citizens! But it seems you're having trouble connecting that fraud to the Somali immigrant community. Seems like the excuse for the Minnesota crackdown isn't holding up under scrutiny!!
And, in the process of cracking down, is it too much to ask ICE to respect US law?? Violating 96 court orders in one month is quite a track record of illegal behavior!!
I agree w you. I’d like to add that ICE is not deporting immigrants . I know many immigrants who are not at all worried about ICE . They are deporting criminals . To say deporting immigrants does kinda sound like left leaning political speak.
They aren't doing anything to immigrants. They are looking for, finding, arresting and deporting illegal immigrants. There is a difference. They haven't shot a single "innocent citizen. They did shoot two people who intended to cause them harm. If they were protesting instead of causing mayhem, they'd both still be alive. They haven't deported a single citizen. You need to get your facts straight.
The only reason they need to hunt down these illegals, is because of sancturary policies of democrat led cities and states. They let criminal aliens out of prison instead of holding for immigration officials to remove from the country.
You're looking for someone to blame I see. Try looking at the past administration who did NOT follow our immigration laws.
@sunsporter1649 None of these people got in the face and tried to harm the illegals who killed them. Yet I hear NOTHING from the left about the awful circumstances of any of them. Not a single word.
I am all for tightening our borders and protecting our people. I think a lot of us have different views on how exactly that should look but I think we can all agree that the way it’s being done is wrong and brutal. I said the other day it’s almost like we are back to the witch hunt days
@Hoodski wasn’t that the plan when over 10 million people were allowed to enter in 5 years ? Overwhelm the system , make due process impossible ? Force the other sides hand (which they did brilliantly ).
I can fully agree with the aims and completely disagree with their methods and be a sane human being. There are much better ways to handle the illegal immigrant problem than wearing masks and not otherwise identify yourself to the public.
@Softy1 If you are the ones inciting the riots by your abhorrent way of tackling the problem..... There are better ways to tackle the problem. Rambo doesn't always work well in civilised societies
@hippyjoe1955 ICE is operating all over the country and just this one city violent protesters. Local government was not cooperating distractions from fraud allegations as far back when they started investigating.
The "wrongdoing", which has so far led to the deaths of innocent citizens, has included targeting people based upon their appearance and skin color, which is unforgivable, and only racists and white supremacists support it. ICE has even stopped Native Americans and African Americans.
There are other undocumented immigrants here because they have let their visas expire, or have come in through our Northern borders, but because they’re usually white Europeans, this administration and this president’s supporters aren’t generally concerned.
The presence of Spanish-speaking people in this country dates back to the 1500s—before the English settlers arrived. There are people who can trace their heritage in our Southwestern states to when those states were part of Mexico.
Previous presidents have deported people who were here illegally, but they did it through the laws that existed. The narrative has been that immigrants are welcome as long as they go through the proper channels. So how does ICE justify hiding and watching for people at courthouses, who are trying to complete their documentation ?
This president has already stated, both to his staff and in public, that he resents certain immigrants who are coming here and their countries of origin. He is focused on black and brown people—which is why he interfered with the status of many who were here legally by canceling federal programs.
Cities likeNew YorkorSan Franciscooften have laws prohibiting local police from inquiring about immigration status or sharing non-public information with ICE. However, they still must share fingerprints with the FBI.
states like New York have introduced legislation (e.g., theLocal Cops, Local Crimes Act) to explicitly ban local police from being deputized as federal immigration agents.
Many departments argue that if they act as immigration agents, undocumented victims and witnesses willstop reporting crimesout of fear of deportation. This can make the entire community less safe by allowing criminals to remain at large
@pdockal Well, that is true, from everything I've read. Undocumented victims of crime do avoid contacting authorities for fear of deportation. The entire system is broken--undocumented people who've committed no crimes should be put on a path to legal status, they should not fear deportation for reporting a crime or taking their kids to school. The system as it is now is entirely punitive and focused on deportation, regardless of criminal status.
Your delusional They were Somalis, not natural nor citizens so that it the connection
Out of 64 convictions, you named three people with Arabic sounding names, all of whom received US prison sentences (thus indicating they are US citizens). And that's your excuse for accusing an 84,000 person community with fraud?? And you call ME delusional???
An estimated 260,000 people of Somali descent were living in the U.S. in 2024, according to the Census Bureau's annual American Community Survey. The largest population is in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, home to about 84,000 residents, most of whom are American citizens.
... Almost 58% of the Somalis in Minnesota were born in the U.S. Of the foreign-born Somalis in Minnesota, an overwhelming majority –- 87% — are naturalized U.S. citizens. Of the foreign-born population, almost half entered the U.S. in 2010 or later, according to the Census Bureau.
They include many who fled the long civil war in their east African country and were drawn to the state's welcoming social programs.
Meanwhile, There are approx 130,000 undocumented in Minnesota, There are approx 2,100,000 undocumented in Texas, There are approx 1,600,000 undocumented in Florida. Clearly, this ain't about undocumented immigrants.
And, last point, is it so unreasonable to expect ICE to obey the laws of the land, and especially to obey court orders rather than violating 96 of them???
UPDATE: yep, tRump says let the other undocumented workers remain.
Nope. The deportation rates aren't proportional to the undocumented populations. TX & FL mostly deport out of existing jail populations; working undocumented in TX & FL get a partial pass due to
So your saying that TX & FL don't cooperate with ICE & are sanctuary states ?????
Texas (TX) and Florida (FL) arenotsanctuary states; they are legally classified as anti-sanctuary, or pro-enforcement, states that mandate local law enforcement cooperation with federal immigration authorities. Both states have passed legislation prohibiting policies that limit compliance withU.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainers.
In the first year of the current administration, deportation activities have significantly intensified inTexas andFlorida, both of which are central hubs for federal enforcement.
In fiscal year 2024, Texas saw more than 156,000 deportations, the highest of any state.

I COULD POST MUCH MOTE BUT IF YOU CAN'T SEE THE ERROR OF YOUR WAYS YOUR HOPELESS
I'll summarize ... since TX & FL cooperate they don't need as much ICE presence as areas that actively seek to disrupt ICE operations
If the illegals come along peacefully there is no reason to get rough. ICE conducted the same deportations under Bathhouse Barry and there were no riots
You’re right it is not illegal for you to be present at a PEACEFUL protest.
Thin skin cry babies always attack and kill protestors, peaceful or not. Remember the story from 2 Kings 2:19-25 (NKJV) = "19 Then the men of the city said to Elisha, “Please notice, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees; but the water is bad, and the ground barren.”
20 And he said, “Bring me a new bowl, and put salt in it.” So they brought it to him. 21 Then he went out to the source of the water, and cast in the salt there, and said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘I have [c]healed this water; from it there shall be no more death or barrenness.’ ” 22 So the water remains healed to this day, according to the word of Elisha which he spoke.
23 Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up the road, some youths came from the city and mocked him, and said to him, “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!”
24 So he turned around and looked at them, and pronounced a curse on them in the name of the Lord. And two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths.
25 Then he went from there to Mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria."
For those that call ice murders lets say police are on their way to arrest a child killer ,they know where he is but on the way there a group of lunatic paid protestors block the road so they can't catch the killer . The killer then kills several more kids ,who do you think is to blame?
@fanuc2013 But then there would be nothing to complain about. Can't have that. Much better for libs to cause mayhem to convince small minded people to vote for them.
What pisses me off is officials know these mentality unstable people are being paid to protest and they know who is paying them but do nothing to stop it .
The 1996 Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRIRA), signed by President Clinton, significantly expanded expedited removal, allowing immigration officers to deport certain undocumented individuals without a hearing.
Yes you're def "not one to be political" with being happy deporting kids in the middle of brain cancer treatments and calling the parents criminals even though they didn't sneak in lol.
@Gibbon No. You just have a warped mind. I do not care about a so called Leftist agenda. I'm calling it as I see it. You're trapped. And you don't know how to get out of the mess you are in. Just deal with the fact that your master Donald Trump has bought you to utter shame. We know you won't say much after we see what comes out next. ☺
If ICE was only deporting violent criminals, nobody would have an issue. But the Republicans purposely filled ICE with Neo-Nazis like the Proud Boys in order to cause chaos. The violence we're seeing is the point, which is why it's so common.
The great majority of those in ICE custody have NO criminal convictions. These are NOT the worst of the worst!
Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University reports that 52,504 out of 70,766 - or 74.2% held in ICE detention have no criminal conviction according to data current as of January 25, 2026. https://tracreports.org/immigration/quickfacts/
The right-wing Cato Institute reports (Nov 2025) that only 5% of people detained By ICE have violent convictions, while 73% have no convictions whatsoever. https://www.cato.org/blog/5-ice-detainees-have-violent-convictions-73-no-convictions
+4 Yes, entering the United States illegally is a federal crime (a misdemeanor for the first offense, often becoming a felony for subsequent offenses) under 8 U.S.C. § 1325. It involves crossing the border without inspection or using fraudulent documents, which can result in fines, detention, and deportation. Simply being present in the U.S. without authorization is generally a civil violation, but illegal entry is criminal.
@SinlessOnslaught I hate that destruction, but as a US leftist I'm on my fifth solid decade of bipartisan conservative war and austerity and no willingness to even let progressive people in. You're crushing us. Gahead. You're crushing yourselves.
Not knowing with no understanding is a foundational attribute of the evil empire. Trump's murdering people in the sea, over a hundred, so far and nobody's stopping him!
