Those are amatuer numbers. They need to step up and send everyone back.

They say they arrested 800 people who they assert are illegal immigrants. Unless the arrestees get due process right to contest their arrest, we can’t really know that all these folks are illegally in the country.

When you claim they are entitled to due process, be careful. We murder millions of babies every year in this country without an inkling of due process.

Nice try.
I can prove I’m a citizen to any law enforcement officer instantly.
Why can’t they?
You make this sound complicated, like a long drawn out legal process is necessary, when in reality this is a black and white issue that can be resolved in a minute.
Either you have legal documents or you get deported.
Why didn’t they have their legal proof on their person?
When I go to Europe or Japan I have to carry my passport at all times.
What’s their problem? Too stupid? Apparently.

“I can prove I’m a citizen to any law enforcement officer instantly.”
How would you do that? Do you carry your passport with you at all times? Or naturalization papers? I certainly don’t.

Well, if I was a legal immigrant in another country, I’d carry any needed paperwork (whatever that would be) to be able to show my status. If they don’t have that documentation and are on a Deport Now list…there is the due process. It is actually a bit more process than it was for them to come into the country.

Come on. This is not consistent with your Chicago and Illinois ethic of being good patsies for your democrat masters. Your superiors and illustrious masters, Toilets and Pinhead, have told you what to believe and it is your duty to not only believe them but to work harder in your job to help pay for what they told you that you believe. Don’t worry. 800 is nothing. There are 100,000 more “immigrants” there waiting to receive their well deserved share of your money. And the good news is you will quietly and obediently pony it up.

800 is a nice start toward the 8 million criminal illegal alien leeches in Illinois. And when criminal illegal alien leeches are no longer counted in the census then the IL Democrats AKA Communists will be truly screwed.

“ Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL) stated at a recent press conference that “none of what [President] Trump is doing is making Illinois safer.” – can Pritzker name one thing he himself has done to make IL safer? Gov. SAFE-T Act, his party, and DSA comrades have prioritized criminal rights and illegal immigrants over legal residents safety and well being.

Hey, down vote person, perhaps you could name one thing Pritzker has done to improve safety.

It’s Rich Miller trolling Wirepoints because the truth about his brainless propaganda is exposed here. Miller and Shia Kapos are dreaming of an upgrade to Washington DC on JB’s coat tails so they are JB’s biggest cheerleading propaganda section.

And right on schedule: two down votes. Pretty likely one from Miller and one from Kapos.

Wait until they tell all the state employees to downvote while they are on the clock. They have nothing else to do, like their job.

Mark Glennon on AM560’s Morning Answer: Chicago pension buyout plan mostly shifts debt rather than eliminating it, property tax surge doubles inflation over three decades

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.
