Chicago church moves services online in fear of President-elect Trump’s deportation plan – ABC7 (Chicago)

"My fear is we would be conducting worship service, and agents would come in and start deportations from there," said Pastor Emma Lozano, with Lincoln United Methodist Church. For a long time now, it's been U.S policy to bar immigration officials from making arrests inside schools, hospitals and churches.

Great, they can zoom into church from Mexico just like they Zoom into their immigration hearing after their deportation to Mexico. You’re all going home! buckle up!

Probably one of the UM churches that saw their attendance plummet when they approved having LBQxyz clergy. Then again, in IL they probably gained members.

Trump isn’t going to focus on churches. For starters, just deporting every illegal immigrant who gets picked up for committing any crime will keep the Feds very busy. Even Pritzker is on record now saying criminals should be deported. Of course the Happy Warrior conveniently forgets they all committed a crime by entering the country illegally but whatever. Go after the low hanging fruit and put up some wins for the American people. Be sure to keep score so you can tell the people how many have been sent back. Optics count.

Remember, Obama deported millions of illegals, yet everyone is screaming about what Trump wants to do the Washington scum are so evil.
