Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is doubling down on protecting illegal immigrants from federal immigration enforcement just days after the killing of 18-year-old college student Sheridan Gorman, for which an illegal immigrant from Venezuela is in custody.

On Wednesday, Johnson unveiled a city snowplow named “Abolish ICE” and addressed reporters about the city’s ongoing efforts to push back against the Trump administration’s efforts to apprehend and deport illegal immigrants, particularly those who have committed violent crimes.

“This name derives from our city’s legacy of standing up for justice, dignity, and the rights of all people, no matter where they come from,” Johnson said as he stood in front of the vehicle. “I want to take this moment to reiterate that Chicago does not want ICE on our streets, in our airports, nor in our city. Chicago believes in abolishing ICE.”

Trump Given Green Light to Detain Some Illegals without Bond

pgnewser March 25, 2026 0

The Trump administration received another rare win in a week of judicial defeats, this time from a panel of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The panel ruled 2-1 to reverse a lower court order that would have essentially forced the DHS to have a catch and release policy for illegal immigrants. The ruling now generally allows illegals to be detained without bond until their removal case is resolved by the court.

Circuit Court Delivers Major Victory For Trump, Mass Deportations – trendingpoliticsnews.com

A divided panel of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals handed the Trump administration a major win for immigration enforcement, backing ICE’s ability to detain certain illegal immigrants without bond while their removal cases move through the system.

The ruling, decided 2-1, reverses a lower-court decision that critics said was pushing the Department of Homeland Security toward catch-and-release by forcing broad bond access for detainees already living inside the United States.

“This is a MASSIVE victory for the deportation mission 🇺🇸”

The case centers on the government’s authority to hold illegal immigrants in custody during removal proceedings under federal immigration law, and whether judges can require bond hearings as a default. The majority said the statute allows detention without bond for covered categories, rejecting the idea that immigration authorities must routinely offer release conditions while deportation cases are pending.

Democrats have spent the past year calling ICE agents the nazi secret police, disappearing random brown people off the streets. I know that you know that I know that you know their real concern was all the undocumented democrats Trump was deporting, but that’s besides the point. They lied about ICE agents, then held Homeland Security funding hostage until Republicans reformed (defunded) ICE based on those lies.

Chaos was caused at airports. Americans were made to suffer on behalf of the Democrat Party agenda. Trump sent ICE agents to the airports to help. Democrats said they were going to shoot passengers. It was going to be a disaster.

The Supreme Court Just Dealt a Blow to the Dems’ Plan to Persecute ICE Agents If They Retake Power – townhall.com

The Democrats have made it painfully, frighteningly clear that they intend to weaponize the government against President Trump, his allies, and anyone who didn’t sufficiently “resist” the Trump administration if they regain power. Susan Rice said last month, “When it comes to the elites, the corporate interests, the law firms, the universities, the media…it is not going to end well for them, for those that decided…that they would act in their perceived very narrow self interest,” Rice said, “which I would underscore is a very short-term self-interest and take a knee to Trump.”

… The biggest target thus far of the Democrat’s retribution plans are ICE agents. Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner vowed to hunt them down like Nazis. Eric Swalwell said he’d make their lives a living hell if he’s elected Governor of California. And several states, including Maryland and Rhode Island, have pushed legislation that would bar ICE agents from getting law enforcement jobs in the state, while Colorado advanced a bill allowing lawsuits against ICE agents.

The Supreme Court, however, has made it clear that the Democrat’s revenge plans may not pass constitutional muster, and they ruled against the Second Circuit and upheld that a Vermont officer had immunity.

What a difference a real DOJ makes! On Monday, the Maine District U.S. Attorney’s Office released the most delightful news brief:

A Thomaston resident pleaded guilty today in U.S. District Court in Portland to assaulting a U.S. Border Patrol agent engaged in his official duties.

According to court records, in August 2025, a United States Border Patrol agent responded to a one-vehicle crash in Washington, Maine. As law enforcement conducted a roadside investigation, Olivia Wilkins, 24, came upon the scene in an automobile and parked close to officers. Wilkins voiced concerns regarding Border Patrol’s presence in the area, but was permitted to move the vehicle further back from the crash to continue observing law enforcement. As the Border Patrol agent took an individual on scene into custody and began moving the individual to a nearby Border Patrol vehicle, Wilkins quickly accelerated toward the agent, who pulled the individual off the roadside away from the oncoming vehicle. Wilkins stopped the vehicle without striking either the agent or the individual in custody before swerving back into the lane of travel and fleeing the scene. Maine State Police troopers were able to arrest Wilkins a short distance away.

Here’s Why the Venezuelan Illegal Immigrant Who Killed a College Student Missed His Court Appearance– townhall.com

Over the weekend, Venezuelan illegal immigrant Jose Medina-Medina was arrested for murdering 18-year-old Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman. Gorman, 18, was walking with friends in Chicago when Medina-Medina shot her in the head. He was released at the border by the Biden administration back in 2013.

Medina-Medina missed his court appearance yesterday because he was hospitalized with tuberculosis.

Here’s more:

Sheridan Gorman spent the early morning hours on Thursday with friends, watching the skyline on the Loyola Beach Pier, prosecutors said, when she noticed someone hiding.

As the group started to run away, Jose Medina, 25, fired a gun, prosecutors alleged Monday, hitting the 18-year-old Loyola University Chicago student in the back while her friends took cover in a grassy area of the beach.

Though a full detention hearing was postponed because Medina is hospitalized with tuberculosis, Cook County prosecutors gave a brief account of the shooting that plunged the Rogers Park university into mourning and generated international headlines when the U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced it had lodged a detainer request asking Illinois officials not to release Medina, who is a Venezuelan national.

Medina is facing charges of murder, among other felonies, in the slaying of Gorman, who was a first-year student from Yorktown Heights, New York. He is scheduled to appear in court on Friday where his public defender will detail any mitigating circumstances.

The problem with crime committed by illegal aliens is that it is 100% preventable. Far too many Americans have tragically lost their lives because the left refuses to admit that borders are, in fact, morally and legally permissible. According to leftist logic, though, so long as no human is illegal, none of this matters. And in that pathetic pursuit, another innocent American has lost her life far too soon.

Even worse is that Chicago Democrat and 49th Ward Alderwoman Maria Hadden has decided to victim-blame, as she claims that if Gorman had been elsewhere at the time of the crime, none of this would have happened.

And to call this the perfect example of fake leftist compassion would be an understatement.

According to The Post Millennial:

18-year-old Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman was shot and killed in the early hours of Friday morning when she was out with her friends near Tobey Prinz Beach Park in Chicago. The suspect in that killing is an illegal immigrant from Venezuela Jose Medina, 25, who was released into the country under the Biden administration and was further caught and released after a shoplifting arrest.

Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman on Tuesday criticized his party over its response to an illegal immigrant allegedly killing female college freshman Sheridan Gorman.

Jose Medina-Medina, a Venezuelan who was released into America under former President Joe Biden after being arrested by Border Patrol, allegedly shot and killed Gorman on Thursday near her Loyola University campus as she attempted to flee, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

And then tragedies just like what happened to that young woman, they are going to continue to happen. That’s justice, that’s beyond common sense. Why can’t you just support this? Why is that unreasonable to anybody?”

Minnesota Teachers’ Union Spends Time, Money Coordinating Terrorist Attacks on ICE Agents

We hope to force an end to ICE’s unprecedented siege of Minnesota — and further the movement to abolish ICE altogether while we do it,”

Rhyen Staley, research director at Defending Education, stated “The teachers unions continue to prove they are rotten apples that only care about far-left street activism, to the detriment of educating children. Teachers and community groups should be dedicating time to improving learning outcomes for students, not creating strategies and lists of people to attempt to thwart law enforcement.”

Federal policy says that such individuals should only be detained in limited circumstances.

Between January 1, 2025, and February 16, 2026, 363 pregnant, postpartum and nursing immigrants were deported, DHS reported in response to questions submitted last fall by Sen. Patty Murray, a Washington Democrat. Sixteen miscarriages were recorded during that time period. In total, 498 pregnant, postpartum and nursing people were reported as “booked out” of ICE detention in that timespan, meaning that they were detained and then left ICE facilities.

As of February 16, 121 people who were actively detained were pregnant, postpartum or nursing, according to DHS. Of those, nine were in their third trimester of pregnancy.

On Monday, the Supreme Court added two significant immigration cases to its docket. The cases are styled Noem v. Doe and Trump v. Miot, and both involve the issue of Temporary Protected Status (TPS). The first comes out of the Southern District of New York and involves TPS for Syrians; the second comes from the D.C. District and involves Haitians.

Some background:

Congress enacted the Temporary Protected Status program in 1990.

It can’t be said often enough: States around the country have granted tens of thousands of commercial drivers’ licenses (CDLs) to illegal aliens who can’t read English, don’t understand road signs, don’t know the rules of the road, and whose prior driving records are unknown.

And American drivers are dying as a result.

During the month of February, for example, illegal aliens caused two fatal crashes in Indiana. The first killed four Amish men — Henry Eicher, 50, Menno Eicher, 25, Paul Eicher, 19, and Simon Girod, 23 — after Bekzhan Beishekeev, an illegal from Kyrgyzstan, swerved into a lane of oncoming traffic, hitting their van head-on. Beishekeev came to the United States using the CBP One app developed by the Biden administration to help illegal immigrants enter the United States more easily. He was released into the country in 2023, and soon thereafter, Beishekeev got a CDL in Pennsylvania.

The second crash happened later in the month when illegal alien Singh Sukhdeep allegedly ran a red light in his big rig, causing a crash that killed 64-year-old Terry Schultz. Sukhdeep entered the United States as a minor, and the Flores settlement has continued to shape how minors are processed and released. The first Trump administration tried to change that framework in 2019, but federal courts blocked key portions of that effort and the agreement remained in effect.

One of the most poorly kept political secrets in modern times is that Democrats just love themselves some unfettered illegal immigration.

Sure, they’ll never outright admit to it — that would be tantamount to political suicide — but actions speak louder than words, and when it comes to illegal immigration, Democrats have practically been screaming at the top of their lungs of late.

The million (billion? trillion?) dollar question, then, is why?

Look, anyone with a room-temperature IQ can tell you that Democrats are trying to “import voters.”

The common criticism is that Dems, alongside all of their unpopular ideas, can’t win over the average American on policy. Instead of changing those unpopular policies, however, Democrats seem far more intent on simply bringing in more agreeable voters.

But it’s not quite so surface-level, as Border Czar Tom Homan so eloquently — and worryingly — pointed out during a Fox News appearance on Tuesday.

A new analysis from the Daily Wire revealed that in the first 14 months of President Donald Trump’s second term, federal courts have seen an unprecedented increase in habeas corpus petitions filed by immigrants challenging their detention by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). These legal challenges, which seek to contest the legality of prolonged detention without bond hearings, have exceeded 18,000 cases, surpassing the combined total from the previous three presidential administrations.

Habeas corpus, a legal principle dating back to the Magna Carta and enshrined in the U.S. Constitution, allows individuals to challenge unlawful detention by requiring the government to justify holding them in custody. In the immigration context, it has become a critical tool for those held during deportation proceedings.
