To your point: my town, Evanston, IL, was invaded by ICE yesterday. Bovino was in town and it was a blitzkrieg. A shit ton of normal people came out to protest, including residents of a NURSING HOME. One old man was pummeled to the ground by ICE, bloodied, and taken away by ambulance.

Day 24 of Emmanuel Garcia being in federal custody.
Heβs a 15 year old autistic boy who went missing 4 weeks ago. Houston PD found him, contacted ICE & his Mom is fighting to get him back
Sheβs not allowed to visit him.
Theyβre keeping a disabled kid from his family & the media is largely silent
