Summary
Immigrants in Chicago are preparing for mass deportation arrests as Trump plans to target over 300 individuals with violent criminal records, alongside others without legal status.
Fear has prompted many to designate powers of attorney, plan for childcare, and install security cameras.
Community leaders condemned the plans, urging calm and emphasizing immigrants’ legal rights.
Advocacy groups are hosting workshops, while some families are creating contingency plans to manage their assets and protect loved ones.
Why would any country want those with violent criminal records? Especially, if they’re illegal.
Note that they’ve mostly stopped saying illegal immigrants when talking about these. I fully expect them to come after legal and naturalized immigrants, even 2nd generation immigrants
Of course, Melania and Musk won’t be affected
