Trump threatens Chicago with "Department of WAR" ahead of planned crackdown
""I love the smell of deportations in the morning," the president wrote on his Truth Social account, accompanied by an seemingly AI-generated photo of him dressed as Robert Duvall's character in the movie."
"The text on the image says "Chipocalypse Now.""
""We need people to get out and protest peacefully," Pritzker said in a recent interview. "Pull out your iPhone, your Android phone, and film everything you see happening where ICE is trying to harass people.""
""Killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens is the highest and best use of our military," Vance wrote."
President Trump posted a message on Truth Social celebrating deportations and shared an AI-like image labeled "Chipocalypse Now." Federal immigration enforcement operations are set to ramp up in Chicago with about 300 agents using Great Lakes Naval Station as a logistical hub. About 200 protesters blocked an ICE processing center. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson urged peaceful demonstrations, warned against illegal federal actions, and encouraged people to film ICE activity. Mexican independence celebrations were scaled back. Vice President JD Vance praised a military strike on an alleged drug-running boat.
