"Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed Sunday that a massive surge in federal assets will be directed to Chicago in the coming days. The announcement comes after President Trump suggested that he was willing to deploy National Guard personnel and federal agents to the Windy City in order to combat crime and accelerate deportation efforts.During an appearance on “Face The Nation,” the secretary was asked about reports of a sprawling Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Chicago that could begin as early as next week. “When are those operations expected to start?” guest host Ed O’Keefe inquired.
He also asked whether the operations are set to be modeled after those in Los Angeles, which have been bolstered by military personnel following widespread anti-ICE riots in the city.
“Well, we’ve already had ongoing operations with ICE in Chicago and throughout Illinois and other states, making sure that we’re upholding our laws. But we do intend to add more resources to those operations,” Secretary Noem responded."
