Buckle Up! This is going to be a long ride.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents attempted entry into a Chicago elementary school Friday morning, but were not allowed inside or permitted to speak to anyone inside, Chicago Public Schools officials said.

Around 11:15 a.m., ICE agents attempted to enter Hamline Elementary School.

“School staff followed CPS established protocols,” CPS Chief Education Officer Bogdana Chkoumbova said in a news conference Friday. “They kept ICE agents outside of the school and contacted CPS law department and CPS Office of Safety and Security for further guidance. The ICE agents were not allowed into the school and were not permitted to speak to any students or staff members.”

Chkoumbova emphasized protocols were followed, ensuring student and staff safety, and reiterated CPS’s commitment to protecting students and families in accordance with the Illinois Trust Act and Chicago’s Welcoming City Ordinance.

Staff followed protocols, ensuring safety of students and upholding their right to an education, Hamline Principal Natasha Ortega said at the news conference.

“I am very grateful to all of our Hamline staff here for upholding all of our protocols and ensuring the safety of our students,” Ortega said. “We will not open our doors for ICE, and we are here to protect our children and make sure they have access to an excellent education.”

Earlier this week, Acting Homeland Security Secretary Benjamine Huffman announced the end of two directives, which did not permit federal immigration authorities to arrest people and carry out enforcement actions in and near places such as churches and schools, marking a departure from long-standing policy to avoid so-called sensitive areas.

“Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest. The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement, and instead trusts them to use common sense,” the statement reads.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement set a policy in 2011 preventing agents from making arrests in sensitive locations. The Biden administration put out similar guidance. Immigrant advocates have shared concerns over stripping that policy, arguing that doing so would stoke fear in immigrant communities and keep children from going to school or people from seeking care at hospitals.

CNN has reached out to Immigration and Customs Enforcement for comment.

A US Secret Service Spokesman confirms ABC7 report that a USSS Agent visited CPS school, NOT ICE. The spokesperson says they were investigating a threat against a protectee related to the TikTok ban. They first investigated a nearby home before being turned away at school.

This is an extremely important correction to the news that has been going around.

Fake news makes it all the way around the world before truth can even make it out the front door. Someone in witness protection was probably moved around or in danger. Whatever the case, its bad optics for ICE to be at an elementary school.

The comments are also disgusting, so many incorrect assumptions revealing their true internal colors.

People legit voted for Trump because they wanted to punish Kamala over the Palestine issue. Trump goes forward and releases the 500 pound bombs that we're slow walked on delivery. Oh well.

Project 2025 coming along well for them.
Some members of this forum said he has no part and interest in Project 2025 and that linking them together was a MSM lie. Only fools believe what Donald Trump says.

Now he's here in CA showing us what a moron he is about wildfires and how he doesn't even have a basic education. Shit about sweeping forest floors and how trees suck up so much water, it lowers the pressure at hydrants. There aren't even trees where the SoCal fires happened... it's all scrub and shrub vegetation.
Stupid man, even more stupid supporters.

I don't think that's a better look honestly. Oh the Secret Service came to an elementary school (so you know, grades K-5, ages 6-11) because the dude that a significant chunk of the country wants dead felt threatened.

Fucking sad. But hey, at least the kids are alright.
