Garcia was not the only high-profile individual angry at ICE. Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) President Stacy Davis Gates called the arrest “an act of terror” in a separate public statement.
Summary and audio linked here.
Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

So, father a child and you don’t have to obey our laws? Sweet!
This should be a gigantic story across the country. It shows the manipulation being perpetrated by the Democrats/liberal media. The Trib doesn’t practice actual journalism any more: the story didn’t give his name because the Trib probably didn’t even ask his name, much less look into his background. It just told the “feel-good” story about ICE being evil.
As a Brit might put it, Mr. Garcia is an arse.
So typical Chuy, complains complains complains, and still on the grift. Does this guy pay his income taxes? Curious folks want to know.
Put him on the express back to Mexico.
Of course.
Foot in mouth disease isn’t curable for these people!
Regarding the pro-crime stance of Chicago’s high-profile individuals–Cook County’s chief judge makes sure there’s no access to criminal records online. Tells you a lot, doesn’t it?
Forgot to add another quote from the article I just referenced. Although the far left attempts to cover up or deny the damage they’ve caused, “…it’s hard to hide dead bodies, shuttered stores, videos of looting in broad daylight, and rampant criminal activity in major Democratic-run cities.”
” …27 of the 30 cities with the highest murder rates are run by Democrats.” from an article entitled The Left’s Desperate Attempt to Deflect on Crime by Stimson and Smith, Aug 4, 2023.
The far left causes confusion and chaos and its policies are destroying communities in America.
The “high-profile individuals angry at ICE” are pro-crime and they do not care about crime victims. Zero empathy for crime victims. Marxists like the CTU president call good evil and evil good. In the warped world of the far left, drug trafficking and gang violence are good.
The only act of terror is the one being perpetrated on the hardworking, tax paying, law abiding citizenry when the U.S. justice system lets invading degenerate filth like Senor Andrade walk the streets. Can’t we bring back the Wanted Dead or Alive bounty system ?
Chuey another one of the Marxist/ socialist progressive IL collective that is a sure bet to run contrary to common sense. Even when provided with evidence, they will spin it into something else or switch the subject with lighting speed. Clowns.
“… targeting a father as he tries to provide an education to his children at their place of learning”
This illegal immigrant/gangbanger isn’t providing an education for his children, the IL taxpayers are providing it and so much more.

Chuy and Stacy both got it wrong. What are the odds!
When it comes to Chicago and IL, you just can’t make up the amount of lawlessness by the Leftist Democrats. Chuy has no shame it seems – pathetic. “..ICE confirmed to the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF) that this individual is Francisco Andrade-Berrera, a Mexican national who’s been deported twice, a member of a “violent” street gang and previously convicted of several high-profile crimes. His immigration status was not specified. “ICE Chicago arrested Francisco Andrade-Berrera, 37, a citizen of Mexico, Feb. 26 without incident,” an ICE spokesperson said in a statement provided to the DCNF. “Andrade is a known member… Read more »
