Chicago mayor declares creation of 'ICE free zones' in the Windy City

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson on Monday announced an executive order to create "ICE free zones" in the windy city amid an ongoing crackdown on illegal immigration.

"Today, we are signing an executive order aimed at reining in this out-of-control administration," he said. "The order establishes ICE free zones. That means that city property and unwilling private businesses will no longer serve as staging grounds for these raids."

Chicago has been a focal point for the Trump administration's immigration crackdown in light of its sanctuary city status.

"This is SICK. He is aiding and abetting criminal illegal immigrant killers, rapists, traffickers, and gang bangers," the White House responded to Johnson's announcement.
