    ICE detain U.S. citizen outside grocery store—beat him with baton, shove his head into the ground & give him a concussion.

    "I told them where I was born, I had an ID, a social, a birth certificate," he said. "They didn't' care about none of that."

    ICE punch U.S. citizen in the head—for documenting their excessive force.

    "What are you doing to this man? You're going to hurt him!" she screams after being assaulted.

    "I'm a citizen and they just beat the crap out of me—just for recording."

    Agents each grab an arm or leg to lift the man off the ground—shove him facedown into the dirt.

    RACIAL PROFILING

    ICE chase down & tackle U.S. citizen to the ground—because he "looked illegal."

    The agents in tactical gear slink away from the scene after realizing mistake.

    Their only explanation: "Why were you running?"

    Probably because 2 masked men with guns were trying to kidnap him.

            Doc,  "In a statement, a DHS spokesperson said authorities arrested five people from Guatemala and Mexico “who broke our nation’s immigration laws, from the car wash and that Shouhed “impeded the operation and was arrested for assaulting and impeding a federal officer.”

            He was arrested and later released, without charges.  He clearly ran at an ICE officer, and then followed them outside to continue trying to prevent ICE from doing their jobs.  Unfortunately, ICE is having to deal with this kind of obstruction.

            A civil rights claim filed by Shouhed accuses federal agencies of violating his constitutional rights, including assault and battery, and alleges deliberate indifference to his serious medical needs. His attorney argues that the agents' conduct was reckless and unlawful, highlighting concerns over the use of excessive force in immigration enforcement actions.

            He will get his day in court. Thus far, we have conflicting stories.

              That sort of interference with the federal police in most countries, including this one, will get you a Comey 86 pass.

                I agree completely. Standing in the way of federal agents prevents them from doing their job, and in most countries,  including ours, that kind of interference would be met with force to clear the path. It’s not unreasonable; it’s the law being enforced to maintain order and safety.

                These officers have a job to do. Anyone getting in their way should be handled accordingly.

          If they are using excessive force, sue them.  Until then it makes more sense to stop the exaggerations and lies.

          Just a thought, but do you think ICE agents might be a little more gentle and considerate if people weren't doxxing them, weren't threatening their family and children, weren't rioting where they go because they don't want legal forces enforcing the laws of the nation?

              If "innocent American citizens" cannot (or will not) control their own actions then the police will control them for them.

              You point out a basic failure of liberals - blaming bad behavior on police rather than the person breaking the law.  Personally, I'm tired of hearing it and doubly tired of seeing the result as thugs are encouraged to ignore the law.

                    I think the statement from ICE, the arrests, and the shop owner’s account are all highly relevant and should speak loudly. I would assume there are full videos of the incident. Law enforcement has the legal right to use force when necessary, including lethal force if the situation demands it, for example, Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed woman who was crawling through a window and was shot because the officer felt threatened.

                    "In a statement, a DHS spokesperson said authorities arrested five people from Guatemala and Mexico “who broke our nation’s immigration laws, from the car wash, and that Shouhed impeded the operation and was arrested for assaulting and impeding a federal officer.”

                    The business owner was arrested and later released without charges.  jobs.  Unfortunately, ICE is having to deal with this kind of obstruction daily.

                    The video clearly shows the shopkeeper running at and confronting an ICE officer, and then again chasing one out into the street. He appeared unhinged and uncontrolled.

      There is no DEBATING this issue --- the protesters at the ICE detention center are breaking the law... laws provided to substantiate this statement.

      Mike, It’s very obvious that these unruly and at times violent protests are happening not only in Portland on a daily basis but in other cities as well. Anyone can see it by looking at the cell phone footage posted all over social media. To me, the core issue is a complete lack of respect for our laws. ICE is simply doing its job under U.S. immigration law, and they should not be obstructed from carrying out the responsibilities they’ve been tasked with.

      While the First Amendment protects peaceful protest, it does not give anyone the right to break the law. Federal properties like detention centers are secure facilities, and protests are not allowed on the grounds themselves by law.  Doing so can amount to trespassing or obstruction of federal duties. People are free to protest on public sidewalks or designated public areas, but storming federal facilities, blocking entrances, or interfering with operations crosses the line and becomes illegal. These protests should never be permitted on secure federal property. If people want to protest, they should move off federal grounds. Let local areas deal with the consequences of violence and destruction,  and perhaps then, more citizens would demand that their local police step up and handle the chaos properly.

      We have laws--- and Trump needs to enforce them, as he is clearly doing. He is within his rights by doing so.

      FACT: LAWS-- Federal laws and regulations provide protection to detention centers, prisons, and ICE facilities. For example:

      18 U.S.C. § 111 – makes it a crime to forcibly assault, resist, oppose, impede, intimidate, or interfere with federal officers or employees doing their jobs.

      18 U.S.C. § 930 – prohibits unauthorized entry with dangerous weapons into federal facilities.

      41 CFR Subchapter C – sets federal property management rules, including restrictions on demonstrations that disrupt operations.

      Together, these laws mean that protesting on the secure grounds of a detention center is not permitted — people can only protest in public areas nearby, not inside or on federal property.

      Our laws make it clear that these protesters are breaking the law. This is America, and we shouldn’t have to tolerate people in our communities who openly disregard it. I’m grateful that President Trump is taking firm action against those who choose lawlessness over respecting our country and its citizens.  No debate is possible regarding this issue.  These people are breaking our laws...

        People have a right to protest. The cities are more than handling these anemic looking protests... When people ACTUALLY break the law, they're dealt with... In many of these locations, it is ice who is acting aggressively on protesters.  Pelting them with rubber bullets, tear gas... All for peaceful protest. 

        Do you live in Portland?

    ICE director says Portland facility faces violence with 'little help from local police'

    Federal agencies target Antifa-linked groups as Trump announces 200 National Guard troops for Portland

    Federal immigration officials say their Portland, Oregon, facility has come under nightly attack, with little help from local police because of political directives from city leaders.

    In an exclusive interview with Fox News’ Bill Melugin, Cammila Wamsley, director of Portland’s ICE office, said the facility has faced violence for more than 100 consecutive nights, with Portland police largely absent under guidance from the mayor and city council.

    "I just, I can’t figure out what’s happening at the FDA. I’m totally baffled by it," Wamsley said, describing her frustration at seeing federal staff attacked outside the building while officers inside lack jurisdiction to intervene. "It’s frustrating for us to watch people be attacked on the street and know that we don’t have the authority to be able to really step in unless there’s some nexus to federal law."

    She said nightly protests have escalated beyond chants and signs, with bottle rockets striking the ICE building, rocks shattering windows, lasers targeting officers’ eyes and barricades blocking vehicles.

    Wamsley said protesters have followed ICE staff members home and doxxed at least six employees.

    "Later, towards the evening and around dark, there are a lot of folks that come up dressed in all black," she explained. "They are here to wreak havoc. They’ll block our cars, throw paint, damage property, and even try to follow our folks home."


    She warned that when crowds swell quickly, the violence becomes more dangerous.

      Mike, that’s just sickening. These aren’t protesters; they’re lawless rioters hiding behind politics and excuses to destroy property and intimidate people who are just doing their jobs. To think ICE staff are being followed home and doxxed is beyond the line; it’s harassment and terrorism, plain and simple. And the fact that local leadership ties the hands of police makes it even worse, basically leaving federal workers as sitting ducks.

      What really stands out to me is how this shows the danger of city leaders putting politics above public safety. If you can’t count on your local police because of “directives,” then the rule of law is already broken down. These attacks aren’t about free speech or protest; they’re about chaos.

      Thank God Trump is sending in the troops. They are needed, and he’s made it clear they won’t have their hands tied this time. That’s the only way to restore order and make sure federal workers, and the city itself, are finally protected.

        Their obsession with illegal aliens and criminals is put on display time and time again.  The same with their disdain for legal immigrants and law-abiding American citizens.

        The left are not people who protest. They simply engage in acts of violence and destruction then claim it is a protest.

          Mike,  I agree — this is more proof to me that the left’s priorities are seriously misplaced. I’m tired of seeing a political movement that repeatedly excuses or downplays violence while pushing policies that seem to reward lawlessness instead of protecting law‑abiding Americans. I support compassionate, lawful treatment for legitimate asylum seekers, but we must also insist on clear rules, strong enforcement, and real consequences for people who break the law or engage in destructive behavior. Protests are a democratic right; vandalism, assault, and looting are crimes and should be treated as such. If leaders and organizers won’t condemn or stop violent actions, local authorities and the justice system must step in to restore order and protect citizens. That’s not about cruelty — it’s about upholding the rule of law, defending our communities, and making sure public policy serves ordinary Americans first.   I support deporting anyone who has been deemed criminal, as well as anyone who is staying in the country illegally. We have laws, and I expect them to be enforced.

              Mike, it was at least until roughly the past 11 years, we could expect our laws would be followed.  However, now, there are some here who hate America and hope to turn it into a socialist nation. That’s my perspective, and it’s been that way for some time. That said, I believe, and again, this is my view, that this group is now a very small minority. Anyone with even a modicum of intelligence can see that we live in the best nation in the world, appreciate what we’ve built, and are moving away from the more extreme, radical ideas.

                Shar,

                I think under the circumstances and considering the type of low level individual ICE is force to deal with I believe they are doing an excellent job.  They are being very professional. 

                Those with a grasp of reality know there is nothing to protest.  People in the country illegally are being obtained and deported just like the law requires.

                I will never understand the left's obsession with illegal immigrants and criminals.  I will never understand their dislike for legal immigrants and law-abiding American citizens.  It is who they are and will probably never change.

                I wonder if the left is so moved by the plight of illegal aliens being deported, why don't they deport themselves along with the illegal aliens?  I dare them to really make a strong statement for their cause and deport themselves like illegal aliens.  It's obvious the protestors serve no useful purpose in our society.  They won't be missed.

                That would earn my respect.

                  I couldn’t agree more with your comment. ICE is put in one of the toughest positions possible, dealing with individuals who have already broken the law by coming here illegally, and yet they still manage to conduct themselves with professionalism. They’re carrying out the laws of this country—nothing more, nothing less.

                  It has become clear to me that many on the left really could care less about laws when those laws don’t suit their purpose. They could care less about the country itself, and honestly, a lot of this type are, for lack of a better word, misfits.

                  What amazes me is how the left continues to twist this into some kind of injustice, when in reality, the only injustice is against law-abiding citizens and legal immigrants who followed the rules. The obsession with defending illegal behavior while showing little regard for those who respect our laws is beyond me.

                  I feel they need to be ostracized, ignored, and not given any light via the media. Attention only fuels them, and without it, their disruptive protests and hollow grandstanding would quickly lose steam.

                  If these protestors feel so strongly, they should lead by example and remove themselves from the very system they seem to despise. Until then, their constant disruptions don’t serve the country in any productive way. They turn my stomach.

      Now that you have read the somewhat fabricated (as expected) report from Fox, here is the truth that isn't partly lies.

      What’s solid

      * Protests have recurred at Portland’s ICE facility since late summer; there have been scuffles and a handful of arrests on some nights, and other nights with no arrests. Portland Police Bureau (PPB) says it’s been monitoring and has made arrests, contradicting the idea of total police absence.
      Portland.gov
      +2
      KGW
      +2

      * The Trump administration ordered up to 200 National Guard for Portland, but Oregon and the city sued to block it; a federal judge is weighing a TRO, and reporting notes the Guard was not yet in place as of Oct 3.
      Axios
      +2
      Oregon Capital Chronicle
      +2

      What’s contested / likely overstated

      * “100+ consecutive nights” and “nightly attacks”: Local on-scene reporting disputes those counts and describes smaller crowds than federal claims on some nights. One PPB nightly recap logged no arrests, which cuts against the picture of uninterrupted nightly violence.
      KGW
      +2
      KGW
      +2

      * “Little help from local police”: PPB’s own releases show presence and arrests; that doesn’t mean no policy friction, but it’s not “absent.”
      KGW

      * Guard already deployed / on the streets: Multiple outlets note training/timing hurdles and court challenges; claims they’re already “in place” were flagged as false/premature.
      The Guardian
      +1

      What’s unverified from the piece

      Specifics like bottle rockets/lasers/doxxing appear in Fox and sympathetic outlets, but I couldn’t find independent local confirmation beyond generic mentions of “fights” and vandalism. Treat as claims, not established facts, unless police reports specify those methods.
      Fox News
      +1

      Bottom line: There’s real tension brought on by Trump's version of the Gestapo and some sporadic violence, but the sweeping narrative of 100+ straight nights of “nightly attacks” with “no police help” is not supported by the broader, local reporting and official PPB logs. The National Guard piece is also in flux pending the federal judge’s ruling.

      You see, this is a perfect example of why you can't trust Right-Wing media. It is also not lost on me that the Trump apologists NEVER present a similar rebuttal to the much more trustworthy MSM.

    It seems the Portland City Council is actually working WITH Antifa.

    This IS an insurrection and federal troops are necessary.

    Officials Conspiring With Antifa in Portland

    "There's a lot of conspiring that's happening" between antifa-backed rioters and the Portland City Council, Andy Ngo, senior editor at The Post Millennial, told Newsmax on Thursday. His comments came a day after President Donald Trump announced the deployment of the National Guard to support Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Oregon, citing worsening conditions in the state.

    Demonstrators had been gathering outside an ICE building in Portland since June to protest Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration. Local and state officials urged the president to withdraw the troops, arguing they were unnecessary.

    "There's a lot to uncover the conspiracies here, like people are using encrypted communication apps," Ngo said during an appearance on Newsmax's "National Report." "They're being encouraged to buy burner phones with cash and so that they can easily discard some of these evidence.

    "Some on local Portland City Council right now are instructing comrades to do that exact thing to try to evade detection. How better to better cover one's face. So there's a lot of conspiring that's happening actually out in the open right now."


    Ngo, who was severely beaten by antifa rioters in 2019, said that the local police have not done much to help the situation but expressed faith that federal intervention will bring accountability. "There's been 26 arrests so far that are federal cases and these cases have not been dropped. Some of the people there were involved — they were arrested at riots in 2020 or afterwards at other antifa direct actions. So these are people, some of them at least, who were involved in other alleged criminal activity at other antifa protests and riots, who face no accountability in the past. But the case isn't being dropped now," he added.

    I find it ludicrous that some "expects" on side to follow the law when they let the other side flout every law on the books without complaint.  What that says is they are not serious at all about people following the law and are only making white-noise.

    Here is the latest example of Trump administration flouting the law.

    "THen why aren't you complaining about the Trump administration. It seems you don't expect THEM to follow the law.

    For example, this is on the SBA website and is illegal as hell.

    "Special announcement from the SBA

    Senate Democrats voted to block a clean federal funding bill (H.R. 5371), leading to a government shutdown that is preventing the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) from serving America’s 36 million small businesses.

    Every day that Senate Democrats continue to oppose a clean funding bill, they are stopping an estimated 320 small businesses from accessing $170 million in SBA-guaranteed funding.

    As a result of the shutdown, we wanted to notify you that many of our services supporting small businesses are currently unavailable. The agency is executing its Lapse Plan and as soon as the shutdown is over, we are prepared to immediately return to the record-breaking services we were providing under the leadership of the Trump Administration."

    When you complain about that, then we can take your other complaint seriously. Otherwise, it is simply partisanship."

    In summary, federal laws and DHS regulations impose significant restrictions on protests at ICE detention centers, particularly when such activities involve unauthorized access or interfere with federal operations. Violations of these laws can result in serious legal consequences, including imprisonment and fines

    1. 18 U.S.C. § 1752 – Restricted Buildings or Grounds

    This statute criminalizes knowingly entering or remaining in any "restricted building or grounds" without lawful authority. A "restricted building or grounds" includes any posted, cordoned-off, or otherwise restricted area of a facility where federal officials are present or where their protection is authorized. Violations can result in fines or imprisonment for up to 10 years, depending on the severity of the offense.

    2. 18 U.S.C. § 111 – Assaulting, Resisting, or Impeding Certain Officers or Employees

    This law makes it a federal crime to forcibly assault, resist, oppose, impede, intimidate, or interfere with any federal officer or employee engaged in or on account of the performance of official duties. This includes individuals working at ICE detention facilities. Penalties vary based on the nature of the offense, with potential imprisonment and fines.

    Feds confirm investigation into arrest of reporter Nick Sortor at Portland ICE protest

    The Trump DOJ WILL NOT allow Portland Police to continue to do the bidding of Antifa'

    Nicholas Sortor, an independent, on-the-street reporter who has become famous for his documentation of anti-government actions across America, has announced that the Department of Justice has assured him of an investigation into his arrest by Portland police late Thursday.

    He was accused by local police of "second-degree disorderly conduct" while he was documenting violent protests near an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Oregon's largest city.

    Other reports from the scene at the time said Sortor was defending himself from a woman who attacked him.

    "The Trump DOJ WILL NOT allow Portland Police to continue to do the bidding of Antifa," he wrote on X, telling Portland police to "f*** around and find out."

    The report said he explained he was recording footage of federal agents macing protesters when he was surrounded and assaulted, forced to defend himself.

    "Nick says he swung back and missed, then disengaged and walked over to a group of Portland PD. He says he was then shocked to be arrested by them, and he sat in the back of a police cruiser while officers figured out what to charge him with," a witness reported.

    The Gateway Pundit commented, "The woman who attacked him was not arrested."

      Mike,  I agree with your sentiments 100%. Portland has become the poster child for what happens when leftist policies take over a once-great city. Law-abiding people are punished, criminals and agitators get a free pass, and the police end up doing the bidding of Antifa instead of protecting citizens.

      What happened to Nick Sortor is a perfect example, an independent reporter documenting the truth gets attacked, defends himself, and he’s the one arrested. Meanwhile, the person who actually assaulted him walks away without consequence. That tells you everything you need to know about the state of Portland under leftist control.

      Thankfully, the DOJ has confirmed it is opening a full investigation into his arrest, demanding police body-cam footage and internal reports. They’ve also involved the Civil Rights Division to determine if his rights were violated or if the arrest was politically motivated. While that doesn’t guarantee an outcome in his favor, it does show that there’s pressure being applied to hold Portland accountable, and the Trump DOJ isn’t willing to turn a blind eye.

      It used to be a beautiful city, but now it’s been reduced to chaos and filth because the left prioritizes criminals, illegals, and agitators over taxpayers and law-abiding citizens. Thank God the Trump DOJ is stepping in to put a stop to this nonsense, because clearly local leadership has no interest in restoring law and order.

      If they did, they would not be attacking ICE facilities.  If they valued obeying laws they would be glad that illegal aliens are being deported. 

      This would require an understanding and value of the law.  I don't think this is something the left cares about at all.  They are more likely to ignore the law, bend the law, manipulate the law to serve their agenda.

      There are many names for fascism, but it's all the same thing. A 1000 years ago there was fascism and today there is. Same thing different cloths.

      It is so sad to see the US has chosen for a fascist as a leader, and it is sad to see that many Republicans are afraid to stand up.  Many know that what Trump does is completely wrong and damaging the country. Standing up though will mean, loosing your job. If you can't stand up for your opinion in the fear of loosing your job, you don't live in a free country anymore.

          I think many people simply choose to not stand up.
          Also it's a matter of emotional commitment. If you supported Trump in the early days when it looked like a fresh new thing, known from TV, it is difficult to say to yourself and to your friends that you were wrong. You start to advocate and agree with things you would not have agreed with 5 years ago.
          Imagine President Bush saying the same things Trump is saying!!
          The climate of the fascism in the US today is build brick by brick. By Fox News, Elon Musk, Joe Rogan and many other far right influencers and technocrats, who don't care about the truth but only care about the money.
          Trump is monetizing the White House. Since when is that not seen as corrupt?

    A federal judge has granted a restraining order blocking Trump's call-up of the National Guard in Portland....

    Judge IMMERGUT, a Trump appointee to the bench, ruled that Trump's call-up was based on false claims about unrest in Portland and that Trump's own statements were "simply untethered to the facts."  LOL WHAT'S NEW??

    Immergut issued a stark warning that the efforts by Trump to make a bad-faith justification to call up the guard risked plunging the country into a form of unconstitutional military rule.

    "This is a nation of Constitutional law, not martial law. Defendants have made a range of arguments that, if accepted, risk blurring the line between civil and military federal power—to the detriment of this nation".

    Judge Immergut says Trump's assessment of "war-ravaged" Portland was not made in "good faith" Even under a legal standard that gives the president "great deference," she said, there's no basis for "ignoring the facts on the ground."

    EXTREMELY PLEASED WITH THIS.

    Trump attempting to send California National Guard into Oregon and Texas National Guard into Illinois and Oregon...

    Trump is now deploying red state military to blue states over the objective of people's elected representatives in those states.

    He's ordering U.S. troops to patrol cities. A judge that Trump  appointed just ruled that this  deployment isn't legal, saying there's no evidence that the protests were "significantly violent or disruptive."

    But Trump is sending U.S. troops in anyway, from a red state, right after he told a room full of generals that the country is at war with an enemy from within, and after he just told the Navy that the country has to "take care of" the Democrats.

    The President is sending our military in to protect an army of masked federal agents who - while they may have begun by focusing on violent criminals - are now arresting legal residents and American citizens so they can hit Stephen Miller's quota or lose their jobs.

    They are filming themselves using force against people who have not yet been found guilty of a crime. They are violating the basic 4th and 5th Amendment rights of Americans - every day. The person they report to - the most powerful White House official - calls the opposition party a domestic extremist organization, and accuses judges who rule against him of being legal insurrectionists.

        Mike, so agree --- Absolutely, you’re right — the Constitution clearly vests the President, as Commander-in-Chief, with the authority to deploy military forces. What makes this case particularly fascinating is how it pits federal judicial authority against executive military power, a tension that has rarely been tested in modern times. Historically, courts have been extremely hesitant to block troop movements, precisely because the framers intended military decisions to remain in the executive domain for the sake of national security and unified command. If this does go to the Supreme Court, it could set a significant precedent clarifying the limits of judicial intervention in operational military decisions — something that could impact not just domestic deployments, but potentially overseas missions as well.

        Judges like this, who ignore those limits, highlight the need for the judiciary to be curbed when it ventures into areas reserved for the executive. If this does go to the Supreme Court, it could set a significant precedent clarifying the limits of judicial intervention, something that’s critical not only for domestic deployments but also for maintaining the integrity of U.S. military command.

        President Trump proceeded with deploying National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon, despite a federal judge's order blocking the action. The Trump administration maintained that the president has the constitutional authority to send troops to quell civil unrest. This demonstrates his strength as a leader, using the courts strategically to set new precedents. He is effectively advancing his agenda, securing the changes he needs, and establishing new executive privileges that could influence how future presidents exercise their authority.

        He is making history... He is steamrolling, and I could not be more pleased.

          It is a shame that so many on the left actually believe they are so knowledgeable on military ways they can decide when troops should be deployed.

          If we have a war would those on the left feel they are so knowledgeable on military ways they should determine what troops should be deployed and where.  When politicians get involved with determining terms of engagement, soldiers get killed.  Trust me, it has happened.  Oh, the stories Iraq and Afghanistan vets can tell. 

          President Donald Trump is a man who will stand up to the left and their egotistical ways.

          They do nothing to help our country.  Not a single thing.  They do quite a bit to help illegal aliens and criminals.  They do nothing for legal immigrants and law-abiding American citizens.

            Sharlee01posted 3 weeks agoin reply to this

            Mike,  Absolutely, I agree. Your comment captures the essence of what’s happening: the left often acts as if they are experts in military strategy and troop deployment, when in reality, that’s exactly the kind of decision-making that can cost lives. Political involvement in operational military decisions has historically led to tragic consequences, as Iraq and Afghanistan veterans could attest and have. President Trump, on the other hand, has demonstrated a willingness to stand firm against that kind of overreach, prioritizing the safety and interests of American citizens.

            Do you find  it comical—and a little telling—how quickly some on the left latch onto the  phrase “jackboots?” It’s almost like feeding schoolchildren a word and watching them parrot it back on cue to one another. They adopt it as if programmed, without understanding its history or context, simply because it fits a narrative they’re trying to push currently.

            Your observation about the left helping illegal aliens and criminals while doing little for legal immigrants and law-abiding Americans ties directly into this pattern; they’re more focused on ideology and performance than practical governance or national security.

                It sounds exactly like what we’ve come to expect from the Democratic Party. They’re using the same tired tactics that have failed even under dictators. But the Democrats are a day late and a dollar short, trying to pull socialism or Marxism over the eyes of most Americans. We’re naturally free-minded people, it’s in our blood. Yes, we’ve always had a few weak links, but when push comes to shove, we’ve always managed to keep them in check.

                Yes — ICE agents (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) do have legal authority under federal law to enter a business and arrest someone if certain legal conditions are met.

                Here’s how it breaks down under U.S. law:

                Federal Authority:
                ICE operates under Title 8 of the U.S. Code, primarily §§ 1226 and 1357.

                Under 8 U.S.C. § 1357(a)(1), immigration officers may “interrogate any alien or person believed to be an alien as to their right to be or remain in the United States.”

                Under 8 U.S.C. § 1357(a)(2), they may arrest without a warrant if they have reason to believe that a person is in the country illegally and likely to escape before a warrant can be obtained.

                With a judicial or administrative warrant, they can enter non-public areas of a business to make an arrest.

                Public vs. Private Spaces:

                ICE can enter public areas of a business (like a store floor, restaurant dining area, or open lobby) without a warrant.

                To enter non-public areas (like offices, kitchens, or back rooms), ICE generally needs consent from the owner or a warrant. This comes from the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures.

                If the employer voluntarily allows ICE agents in, that consent can be enough.

                Worksite Enforcement Operations:

                ICE’s “worksite enforcement” authority is also covered by 8 U.S.C. § 1324a, which prohibits employers from knowingly hiring unauthorized workers.

                ICE can audit employer records (like I-9 forms) with notice, and they can investigate or arrest unauthorized workers if evidence supports it.

                So, in short:
                ✅ ICE does have the authority to enter a business and arrest someone who is unlawfully present.
                ⚠️ But if the area is not open to the public, they generally need either a warrant or consent to enter.   AI

          "the President may call into Federal service members and units of the National Guard of any State in such numbers as he considers necessary to repel the invasion, suppress the rebellion, or execute those laws.  Orders for these purposes shall be issued through the governors of the States or, in the case of the District of Columbia, through the commanding general of the National Guard of the District of Columbia."

    White House Flips Out After Chicago Mayor Announces “ICE-Free Zones”
    Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has announced a new initiative to fight back against the Trump administration’s attacks on his city.

    The executive order establishes “ICE-free zones,” limiting ICE agents from using “city property and unwilling private businesses” as “staging grounds” for their raids, Johnson said at a press conference.

    Under the order, private businesses can choose to display signage indicating that ICE cannot enter without a warrant—thereby designating “their property as part of a city-wide network of community spaces that stand together in affirming the safety, dignity, and belonging of all of our residents,” the mayor said....

          Come on, Cred — he was talking about his political opponents. Do you think he might have reason to dislike many of those who opposed him and accused him of wrongdoing for years, often without solid proof, while using their platforms to damage his reputation and political future? But when he speaks of American citizens, he’s always clear; he means all Americans, regardless of party, background, or belief. I guess some are twisting his words to fit a narrative.

          It has become increasingly clear to me that some people take one of Trump’s sentences, strip away any preceding or following context that would give it true meaning, and then run with it. Frankly, I don’t find that very intelligent. It seems there’s a real problem in our society with seeking full context before forming opinions—and that’s not a good thing.

          Today, for example, social media has latched onto this snippet:

          “We have to take care of this little gnat that’s on our shoulder called the Democrats. They want to give all our money to illegal aliens who pour into the country.” Trump

          Taken in full context, Trump made this comment while discussing military funding and the ongoing government shutdown. He emphasized his commitment to ensuring that service members receive their pay and benefits despite the shutdown, while also criticizing Democrats for their positions on immigration and government spending. Yet the snippet alone has drawn criticism for its tone and for the perceived use of a military event for partisan rhetoric, demonstrating just how easily context can be lost.

    I was thinking that maybe I have missed something in my 60+ years of thinking about, studying, and writing about our Constitution So I asked ChatGPT to find something I didn't know about regarding this question:

    Where in the Constitution does it say the commander and chief can send national guard or troops anywhere in the US that he wants for any cause, made up or not? (I had to cover all the possible combinations and permutations)


    Short answer: Nowhere.

    The Constitution does not give a Commander-in-Chief a blank check to “send the Guard or troops anywhere in the U.S. for any cause.” What it does is split powers:

    What the Constitution says

    Commander in Chief clause (Art. II, §2): The President commands the Army & Navy, and the militia (National Guard) only “when called into the actual service of the United States.” That is, command follows a lawful call-up; it isn’t a free-standing power to deploy domestically for any reason.

    Militia Clauses (Art. I, §8, cl. 15–16): Congress has the power “to provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the laws, suppress insurrections, and repel invasions,” and to organize/discipline it. This is why federal domestic use depends on statutes Congress passed.

    Guarantee Clause (Art. IV, §4): The United States shall protect each state against invasion and—on the state’s request—against domestic violence (old term for internal unrest). This is a duty implemented through laws like the Insurrection Act; it is not a carte blanche for unilateral deployments.

    Well, some here, through their comments, clearly believe otherwise. They seem to think that a President can conjure up a crisis out of thin air a weak excuse to invoke Title 10 and use it to set up military occupation of our cities anywhere he wants.  That is unamerican for sure, although it is the way Iran and Russia do things. It seems he has learned from the best dictators in the world.

      "some here, through their comments, clearly believe otherwise"

      Then they also do not comprehend the concept of what is and is not a dictator.  NONE of you have any idea how russia does things.

      Since you depend on a computer program to tell you things ask it about  US Code Section 12 406.

      Odd how ChatGPT didn't mention anything about it.

      Maybe it is not a comprehensive as you believe.

        You may not, we have eyes and ears and a working brain and can easily see what Russia and Putin are all about. We also see that Trump is following Putin's playbook.  Too bad you don't.

          Your reference is wrong. In one form it brings up stuff about banking.

          First, 10 U.S.C. § 12406 is a law enacted by Congress, It relates to, but is not the same as the Guarantee Clause from the Constitution. My answer related ONLY to the Constitution since you said Trump's actions were in the Constitution.

          Had you said his acts were authorized in the Constitution AND Congressional laws, then I would have added this from its response:

          Title 10 §12406 (federalizing the Guard): The President may call the Guard into federal service to repel invasion, suppress rebellion, or execute the laws—again, tied to specific conditions set by Congress. Orders flow through governors (or, for D.C., through the DC Guard commander).
          U.S. Code
          +1

          Now don't get too exited about that "execute the laws" part. Congress and the courts have determined that to mean:

          "use military forces to enforce federal law only when specific, legally defined conditions exist and civilian enforcement is being obstructed—it is not a free-standing authority to deploy troops anywhere for any reason."

            I like how you do not provide any links or sources from where you got this information.  You do tend to make up things.  I think this is one of those cases.

              Mike, what appears clear now, as of today, is that Trump is relying primarily on Title 10 U.S.C. § 12406 to federalize National Guard troops and deploy them in support of protecting federal personnel, property, and functions (for example ICE and DHS operations). Under § 12406, the President can bring state National Guard units into federal service to repel invasion, suppress rebellion, or enforce U.S. laws — though the way it’s being applied now is legally novel and controversial.

              From his administration ---"In the Presidential Memorandum titled “Department of Defense Security for the Protection of Department of Homeland Security Functions” (June 7, 2025), Trump explicitly calls into Federal service members and units of the National Guard under 10 U.S.C. § 12406 to protect ICE and other federal personnel and property."
              https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential … hatgpt.com

              In addition, the administration likely leans on the President’s inherent “protective power”, a constitutional theory that claims the executive can use force to safeguard federal property, officers, and operations,  especially when those functions are under threat.

              However, the Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C. §§ 251–255) remains Trump’s potential fallback. If § 12406 is struck down by courts, challenged as insufficient, or seen as too constrained for his objectives, the Insurrection Act provides a more expansive, historically used statutory authority to deploy federal forces domestically. So while Trump isn’t openly invoking it yet, it’s very likely he’s keeping it in reserve as his “ace in the hole.

              Another important point is that I’ve found no credible evidence showing that Congress, as a whole (both the House and Senate), has taken any legally binding action, such as passing a law, to stop President Trump’s deployment of the National Guard or federal troops under his current orders. Most of the opposition has come through state-level lawsuits and court rulings, but not a single concrete congressional measure has been passed to halt the deployment. To me, that says Trump is acting fully within his legal authority. And honestly, when has Congress ever missed an opportunity to attack him if they thought he was overstepping? I couldn’t be more pleased to see President Trump addressing this issue with such resolve and strength.

      You do realize don't you that when they say that about Antifa, there saying they support the Nazi's Antifa is fighting against. In other words, they are showing support for white supremacists and other anti-American hate groups.

      I think this was long overdue. Generally, Republicans and conservatives don’t take to the streets, but these Americans did, and they did so peacefully and patriotically. I’ve also noticed in the past week that since Trump said, “no more hands tied,” ICE has been stepping up enforcement and standing firm against those who threaten or attack them. It’s clear the gloves are off, and law enforcement is finally being allowed to do its job.

    This is how misinformation and disinformation gets started. A known liar (Noem) puts out a basically untrue statement - that "cartels/gangs/terror groups put out $2,000 to kidnap / $10,000 to kill specific agents" (pure hyperbole based on a single incident, in other words, a lie). Then a Trump radical picks it up and repeats and expands on the lie. Then another Trump radical picks THAT up and repeats it with their own hyperbolic spin on it.

    Pretty soon, it becomes "truth" in their fantasy world.

    The hypocrisy is just incredible...

    Kristi Noem in Feb 2024: If Biden federalizes the National Guard [to handle border issues], to take away my authority as governor, we’ve got a war on our hands.”l

    Kristi Noem in 2025 as DHS Secretary: …federalizing the National Guard.

      Must be making things up:

      * NO statues toppled in Portland or Chicago

      * Trump is CLEARLY trying to ban free speech

      * Trump is CLEARLY blaming one group for ALL our woes.

      * Gun control hasn't been instituted, the Right wants everybody to have guns, everybody else only want responsible people to have guns.

      * Trump places himself above God

      * Trump tells industries who to hire and fire and what they can produce.

      Yep, sounds like Trump is a Nazi to me based on Mike's post.
