The Biden administration pressured at least 11 American airports to house illegal immigrants despite security warnings, a shocking new Senate report revealed Tuesday.
The Biden White House directed the Department of Transportation (DOT), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to identify airports where illegal migrants could be held and processed, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/bombshell-report-alleges-biden-team-pushed-airports-house-migrants-risking-safety" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to Fox News, citing the 47-page report, entitled &#8220;Flight Risk.&#8221; In some instances, the Biden administration asked federal agencies to &#8220;divert &#8230; resources&#8221; to support the illegal migrants.
&#8220;The Biden-Harris administration made airports and aviation less secure,&#8221; the report states, &#8220;by allowing and encouraging aliens to shelter at U.S. airports, by allowing improperly vetted aliens to fly into and throughout the United States, and by diverting needed federal air marshals to the border.&#8221;
Officials tasked with the effort, however, weren&#8217;t shy about their concerns, internal emails showed.
&#8220;We have received a request from the WH to determine if there are available facilities on airport or surrounding areas… This is an immediate ask so please prioritize this effort,&#8221; one FAA official wrote to the Massachusetts Port Authority, which runs Boston Logan Airport, on October 6, 2023.
A Department of Transportation official responded: &#8220;Yikes, this is definitely Fox News fodder in the making.&#8221;

FAA officials recognized they needed federal approval to house migrants in terminals and other airport facilities under grant-assurance rules, but &#8220;ignored them most of the time when airports used their facilities to house aliens,&#8221; the report stated.
The airport authority also pushed back on the request, saying they&#8217;re &#8220;not designed or resourced to manage the intake of migrant populations,&#8221; adding that it &#8220;would create a host of unintended safety and security consequences.&#8221;
Still, the Boston airport accommodated 352 migrants, shelling out $779,000 on security, cleaning, and transportation.
The targeted airports included Boston Logan, Chicago O’Hare, and New York’s JFK. And they were asked to shelter migrants inside terminals, hangars, or auxiliary buildings.
In Chicago, O&#8217;Hare Airport hosted up to 900 migrants, housing them in a shuttle terminal.
The effort resulted in 329 service calls to police and 26 arrests between April 2023 and February 2024 for crimes that included thefts, disorderly conduct, and a death investigation.
The &#8220;asylum seekers [we]re not restricted to the staging area,&#8221; Chicago officials said at the time.
At JFK airport, the migrant issue resulted in a security breach, after Kleber Loor-Ponce, &#8220;an alien from Ecuador&#8230; ran past a security post into ‘the secure area at [JFK],’ toward two runways.&#8221;
When he was arrested, officers &#8220;found a box cutter and pair of scissors on his person.&#8221;
Department of Transportation officials were also instructed to step in, with some told to create a &#8220;Know Your Rights&#8221; guide for migrants while working with states that track buses delivering border crossers across the country.
Some officials were also &#8220;encouraged to remind local transit agencies that federal grants could be used to move migrants.&#8221;

President Donald Trump threatened to strip Boston of its status as host city for the 2026 FIFA World Cup following an eruption of public unrest.
“If somebody is doing a bad job, and I feel there are unsafe conditions, I would call Gianni, who’s head of FIFA,” Trump said Wednesday. “I would say, ‘Let’s move into another location,’ and he would do that.”
Last week, over 100 people took over a Boston street, setting off fireworks and illegally racing. According to prosecutors, the event appeared to be mass-coordinated, where “<a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/boston-police-cruiser-destroyed-julian-bowers-william-cantwell/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">drivers perform burnouts, donuts, and illegal street races, often live-streaming the activities</a>.” The event ended with a police cruiser erupting in flames.
Trump reiterated the threat to Daily Wire White House Correspondent Mary Mararet Olohan in the Oval Office Wednesday.
&#8220;Somebody said, &#8216;Would we think about taking the World Cup away from Boston if they don&#8217;t straighten it out?'&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;And the answer is yes, we have the right to do that.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Trump added that he would take the same action in California if he felt Los Angeles wasn’t prepared to host the 2028 Olympics.
To prepare for 2026, President Trump assembled the FIFA World Cup Task Force through executive order. He instructed the task force to coordinate with executive agencies and assist with the <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/establishing-the-white-house-task-force-on-the-fifa-world-cup-2026/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">planning, organization, and execution of events surrounding the World Cup. </a>
FIFA President Gianni Infantino expects the tournament to generate $40 billion in economic activity and create 200,000 jobs.
When announcing the task force, Trump and Infantino emphasized safety and hospitality. “It’s important that everyone coming to America feels safe and welcome,” Infantino said.
In an effort to prepare Boston to become a host city, President Trump offered to send the National Guard to Boston, but claimed Mayor Michelle Wu would not accept “because she thinks it’s bad politically.”
“Boston is honored and excited to host World Cup matches,” Boston Mayor Michelle Wu told The Daily Wire. “We look forward to welcoming fans from around the world to our beautiful city, the cradle of liberty and city of champions.”
Senator Elizabeth Warren weighed in on the dispute in an interview with Bloomberg, saying, “Michelle Wu is doing a terrific job.”
“Donald Trump doesn’t like anyone who doesn’t bend the knee, so frankly I’m not surprised that he’s trying to pick some sort of fight with Michelle Wu, but I don’t think it’s going to work,” Warren said.
Including Boston, the 2026 FIFA World Cup secured 16 host cities: 11 in the United States, three in Mexico, and two in Canada. To finalize host status, each city signed a legally binding contract with FIFA, outlining the rights, responsibilities, and obligations.
In 2023, the Seattle City Council released its Host City Agreement, which contains a clause titled “Revocation of Host City Selection.” The clause states that FIFA’s host city selection assumes the city will meet “all requirements and act in full compliance with its obligations resulting from, or in connection with, this Host City Agreement.”
If the city fails to meet its obligations, FIFA reserves the right to revoke host status.
Meaning, if Trump requests FIFA intervene, President Infantino could potentially invoke this clause and argue that Boston no longer meets its contractual requirements. The City of Boston could then contest the decision in court.
“We hope every one of our 16 host cities will be ready to successfully host and fulfil all necessary requirements,” a FIFA spokesperson said following Trump&#8217;s comments. “Safety and security are the top priorities at all FIFA events worldwide.”
“Safety and security are obviously the governments&#8217; responsibility, and they decide what is in the best interest for public safety,” the spokesperson added.

After leftist Boston Democratic Mayor Michelle Wu attacked Attorney General Pam Bondi’s order to dismantle the city’s sanctuary policy, acting ICE Director Todd Lyons <a href="https://www.bostonherald.com/2025/08/20/ice-director-vows-to-flood-boston-after-mayor-wus-refusal-to-strip-sanctuary-protections/">fired back</a> on Wednesday, saying the agency would “flood the zone.”
Earlier this month, Bondi sent a letter to Wu that <a href="https://www.bostonherald.com/2025/08/18/mayor-wu-to-respond-to-feds-demand-to-strip-sanctuary-protections-boston-does-not-back-down-to-bullies/">stated</a>, “For too long, so-called sanctuary jurisdiction policies have undermined this necessary cooperation and obstructed federal immigration enforcement, giving aliens cover to perpetrate crimes in our communities and evade the immigration consequences that federal law requires. You are hereby notified that your jurisdiction has been identified as one that engages in sanctuary policies and practices that thwart federal immigration enforcement to the detriment of the interests of the United States. This ends now.”
On Monday, Bondi told Fox News of her directive to sanctuary cities: “If they don’t comply with us, we’re going to work with other agencies to cut off their federal funding. We are going to send in law enforcement just like we did during the LA riots, just like we’re doing here in Washington, D.C. And if they’re not going to keep their citizens safe, Donald Trump will keep them safe.”
Wu held a press conference on Tuesday where she  arrogantly responded, “The U.S. Attorney General asked for a response today, so here it is. Stop attacking our cities to hide your administration’s failures. Unlike the Trump administration, Boston follows the law, and Boston will not back down from who we are or what we stand for. We will not back away from our community that has made us the safest city in the country.”
Bondi had given Wu a Tuesday deadline to respond to the letter she sent to Wu and other leaders of cities and states identified by the Department of Justice as sanctuary jurisdictions, with an order to “eliminate laws, policies and practices that impede federal law enforcement.”
Speaking on “The Howie Carr Show” on Wednesday, Lyons said ICE is “going to keep making Boston safe, as she’s failing to do with the sanctuary city policies.”

“We did Operation Patriot March which yielded over 1,000 arrests, and now you’re going to see more ICE agents come to Boston to make sure that we take these public threats out that she wants to let go back in the communities. We’re going to keep making America safe. &#8230; We’re definitely going to … flood the zone, especially in sanctuary jurisdictions. Boston and Massachusetts decided to say that they wanted to stay sanctuary. Sanctuary does not mean safer streets. It means more criminal aliens out and about the neighborhood. But 100%, you will see a larger ICE presence.”
Lyons accused Massachusetts of ignoring ICE detainers or releasing “criminal aliens” convicted of crimes in the United States and abroad, adding,  “So not only do we have to go ahead and go after the ones we were targeting, but we have to also deal with jurisdictions releasing criminal aliens in real time while we’re out there working the streets. It’s not making anyone safer.”
Lyons said that although Boston police are barred from helping ICE because of the city’s Trust Act, some are helping ICE surreptitiously because they fear “getting in trouble or getting fired.”
He continued:
<blockquote>
That’s the issue we’re seeing in so many jurisdictions. We have so many men and women on the Boston Police Department and other jurisdictions that are so pro-ICE, that want to work with us and that are actually helping us behind the scenes. And that’s what I think local leaders don’t understand, is they need to talk to the men and women on the ground, because … there are so many of these criminal aliens that keep getting released to go out and commit more crimes that the local law enforcement have to deal with. We can take that violent criminal alien instantly out of the neighborhood.

The court battle between the Trump administration and Harvard University went before a federal judge in Boston on Monday as both parties seek a final ruling on the Ivy League school&#8217;s lawsuit over federal funding cuts.
Judge Allison D. Burroughs, who sided with Harvard in another case over the Trump administration&#8217;s attempt to block the university from enrolling foreign students, will likely signal on Monday where she stands on Harvard&#8217;s lawsuit against the Trump administration, The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/21/us/trump-administration-harvard-hearing.html">reported</a>. Harvard sued the federal government in April after the Trump administration announced it would strip more than $2 billion in federal funding from the school, citing anti-Israel sentiment on the campus and its diversity, equity, and inclusion programs.
President Donald Trump has <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-calls-harvard-an-anti-semitic-threat-to-democracy?author=Zach+Jewell&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Trump+Calls+Harvard+%E2%80%98An+Anti-Semitic%E2%80%A6Threat+To+Democracy%E2%80%99">called</a> Harvard “Anti-Semitic,” “Far-Left,” and “a threat to Democracy.”
“The place is a Liberal mess, allowing a certain group of crazed lunatics to enter and exit the classroom and spew fake ANGER AND HATE. It is truly horrific!” Trump added in April.
The federal antisemitism task force, established by the Trump Department of Justice earlier this year, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2025/07/21/trump-harvard-hearing/?utm_campaign=wp_main&amp;utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social">demanded</a> that Harvard submit to federal oversight and reform certain aspects of its admissions, hiring, and student discipline practices. Harvard refused to comply with the task force&#8217;s demands.
In its lawsuit, Harvard argues that the Trump administration is violating its First Amendment rights. Harvard also states that the funding freeze will harm essential scientific and medical research more than anything else.
“No government — regardless of which party is in power — should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue,&#8221; said Harvard&#8217;s President Alan M. Garber.
The court hearing comes as President Donald Trump continues to negotiate with the university. One month ago, Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-teases-mindbogglingly-historic-deal-with-harvard-they-have-acted-extremely-appropriately?author=Zach+Jewell&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Trump+Teases+%E2%80%98Mindbogglingly+Historic%E2%80%99+Deal+With+Harvard%3A+%E2%80%98They+Have+Acted+Extremely+Appropriately%E2%80%99">teased</a> a &#8220;mindbogglingly HISTORIC&#8221; deal with Harvard that he said would be announced “over the next week or so.”
&#8220;They have acted extremely appropriately during these negotiations, and appear to be committed to doing what is right,&#8221; Trump said in a <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114717387393069944">June 20</a> Truth Social post.
Harvard has promised to address antisemitism on its campus, and the Trump administration said it remains &#8220;confident that Harvard will eventually come around and support the president’s vision, and through good-faith conversations and negotiations, a good deal is more than possible.” Ahead of Monday&#8217;s hearing, White House spokesman Harrison Fields told <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/07/21/politics/harvard-trump-administration-court">CNN</a>, “The Trump Administration’s proposition is simple and commonsense: Don’t allow antisemitism and DEI to run your campus, don’t break the law, and protect the civil liberties of all students.”
As Trump pushes Harvard to make a deal, he has ramped up pressure on the school to hand over information on foreign students. Earlier this month, the Department of Homeland Security sent <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-admin-subpoenas-harvard-over-foreign-student-misconduct-campus-radicalism?author=Zach+Jewell&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Trump+Admin+Subpoenas+Harvard+Over+Foreign+Student+Misconduct%2C+Campus+Radicalism">administrative subpoenas</a> to Harvard, accusing it of “repeatedly” refusing to cooperate with the Trump administration’s “non-coercive requests to hand over the required information for its Student Visitor and Exchange Program certification.”

Karen Read was acquitted Wednesday of murdering her Boston police officer boyfriend in a case that exposed a flawed investigation and allegations that authorities conspired to frame her for his death.
The case began when Read was <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/06/18/us-news/karen-read-jurors-reach-verdict-in-second-murder-trial/">accused</a> of leaving her boyfriend, John O&#8217;Keefe, to die in a 2022 snowstorm after allegedly hitting him with her Lexus outside a suburban Boston house party, per the New York Post.
In her Wednesday retrial, Read, 45, was found guilty only of operating under the influence of liquor — a lesser sub-charge of the manslaughter count — resulting in a sentence of one year of probation.
Jurors acquitted her of second-degree murder and leaving the scene of an accident causing death after deliberating for about three full days, according to the New York Post.
&#8220;No one has fought harder for justice for John O&#8217;Keefe than I have — Than I have, and my team,&#8221; Read told reporters outside the courthouse, thanking her loyal advocates.
As the Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/she-was-accused-of-killing-her-cop-boyfriend-but-said-she-was-framed-a-jury-couldnt-decide-who-was-right">reported</a>, this was Read&#8217;s second trial after a hung jury led to a mistrial last year. The retrial began in April and featured key differences, including the absence of lead investigator Michael Proctor, who was fired after sending lewd texts about Read during the first trial, calling Read a “wack job c***.”
Proctor’s misconduct, combined with other <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/karen-read-is-on-trial-for-allegedly-killing-her-cop-boyfriend-but-is-she-being-framed">evidence</a> of police misconduct throughout the investigation, put the spotlight on Read’s trial, garnering her thousands of supporters who came out in droves to support her at the retrial.
&#8220;We&#8217;re all Karen Read,&#8221; one supporter <a href="https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/were-all-karen-read-hundreds-of-supporters-celebrate-verdict/3745890/">told</a> NBC 10 Boston following the trial, while another exclaimed, &#8220;God blessed Karen Read. She didn&#8217;t even get to mourn John&#8217;s death,&#8221; per the Post.
Read&#8217;s defense team argued that O&#8217;Keefe was actually beaten, bitten by a dog, and then left outside the Canton home in freezing temperatures, claiming authorities constructed a conspiracy to frame her for his death.
The jury&#8217;s decision came after a confusing sequence of events on Wednesday afternoon. The jury initially indicated they had reached a verdict, then quickly informed a court officer they had changed their minds, before finally confirming they had reached a decision shortly after Judge Beverly Cannone provided an update.
During deliberations, jurors asked several questions that suggested they were unlikely to find Read guilty of killing O&#8217;Keefe, including inquiries about the timeframe for the drunk driving charge. The jury ultimately spent approximately three days deliberating before delivering their verdict.
Several people close to O&#8217;Keefe before his death <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/karen-read-trial-verdict-jury-murder-charges-manslaughter-what-know-rcna212763">released</a> a statement decrying the verdict as a &#8220;devastating miscarriage of justice.&#8221;
“They have suffered through so much and deserved better from our justice system. While we may have more to say in the future, today we mourn with John’s family and lament the cruel reality that this prosecution was infected by lies and conspiracy theories spread by Karen Read, her defense team, and some in the media,” the statement read.
According to NBC, several people who signed the statement were accused by Read&#8217;s defense of being possible suspects in the death of O&#8217;Keefe, but were not adequately investigated due to police misconduct.

The owner of a kosher grocery store in the Boston-area is speaking out after a brick with “Free Palestine” on it was thrown through his business’s window Saturday night.
The owner of The Butcherie, Gil Zilberberg, said a brick was thrown through the window of his store in <a href="http://pres/">Brookline</a>—a Boston suburb with a large Jewish population— by masked men early around 1:00 a.m. on Sunday morning.
“This is an attack on the Jewish people of Boston,” Zilberberg told The Daily Wire. “Nobody should be fearful of coming to get kosher food.”

Surveillance footage obtained by The Daily Wire shows a group of masked vandals behind and beside the store before one of them runs up and hurls a brick through a map displaying winery locations in Israel. The group quickly ran away down the street. Police are investigating the incident, but no one has been apprehended.
“There is a non-political statement here. This is a map of Israel with all the best wines that Israel has to offer,” Zilberberg said. “This is just a pure hate crime.”
One of the grocery store’s employees found the brick and shattered glass when coming to open the store Sunday morning.
The 54-year-old store is the only kosher grocery in the Boston area and has been in Zilberberg’s family since his grandfather opened it in 1971.
“This has never happened in the Butcherie’s history,” Zilberberg said.

Thirteen people have been killed, including three children. Another 380 have been injured: 9 are in serious condition, 30 are in moderate condition, and 351 sustained minor injuries.
There is a rally planned by the local Jewish community to show support for Zilberberg at 2:00 p.m. outside the establishment. 
Anti-Semitic incidents have surged by 500% since October 7, 2023, with 1,200 reported incidents, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/anti-semitic-incidents-up-500-on-campuses-since-october-7-report">according to data</a> from the Anti-Defamation League.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday to crack down on sanctuary jurisdictions impeding federal immigration enforcement.
The directive requires the Justice Department to compile a list of all sanctuary city jurisdictions and then take action to cut off or suspend federal funding to those places. Under Trump, cities across the country, like Boston, have already made it difficult for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to apprehend illegal immigrants.
&#8220;This invasion at the southern border requires the Federal Government to take measures to fulfill its obligation to the States,&#8221; Trump wrote in the executive order. &#8220;Yet some State and local officials nevertheless continue to use their authority to violate, obstruct, and defy the enforcement of Federal immigration laws. This is a lawless insurrection against the supremacy of Federal law and the Federal Government&#8217;s obligation to defend the territorial sovereignty of the United States.&#8221;
After the list of sanctuary jurisdictions is published, those entities would be given the chance to comply with federal law. If they don&#8217;t comply, they could lose federal funding.
The executive order also directs the Justice Department and Homeland Security to ensure that federal benefits are not provided to illegals in sanctuary jurisdictions and to &#8220;take appropriate action to stop the enforcement of State and local laws, regulations, policies, and practices favoring aliens over any groups of American citizens that are unlawful, preempted by Federal law, or otherwise unenforceable.&#8221;
The White House <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/04/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-protects-american-communities-from-criminal-aliens/">provided</a> examples of sanctuary jurisdictions refusing to cooperate with ICE. For example, authorities in Massachusetts declined to hold multiple illegal immigrants accused of raping children. The White House also said that officials in Philadelphia ignored an ICE detainer on a Honduran man who went on to rape a child.
Earlier this month, Trump called sanctuary jurisdictions &#8220;death traps&#8221; and promised to cut off federal funding.
&#8220;No more Sanctuary Cities! They protect the Criminals, not the Victims. They are disgracing our Country and are being mocked all over the World,&#8221; he posted on Truth Social. &#8220;Working on papers to withhold all Federal Funding for any City or State that allows these Death Traps to exist!!!&#8221;
While some jurisdictions have doubled down on their sanctuary status, New York City Democratic Mayor Eric Adams has walked back some of his city&#8217;s lax immigration policies. Earlier this month, he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nyc-mayor-adams-reverses-sanctuary-policy-restores-ice-presence-on-rikers-island" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> that ICE would be allowed to resume operations at Rikers Island jail to target criminal gangs and drug trafficking, reversing a previous policy banning the agency from the facility. Adams did specify that NYC would work with ICE on criminal matters, not civil.

The operation comes as President Donald Trump marks his first 100 days in office, and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/homan-does-indeed-bring-hell-to-boston-much-more-to-do-but-it-will-be-done" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Border Czar Tom Homan</a> vows to “go to Boston and bring hell with me” in an effort to arrest illegal aliens who have sexually assaulted children.
“We did more arrests in these 100 days than the previous administration did last year,” Lyons told The Daily Wire in his first interview.

Lyons became the acting director of ICE in March after five years as Boston Field Office Director. He said morale is at an all-time high following the Trump administration giving the support needed to remove illegal aliens.
ICE is focused on deporting the “worst of the worst” that the Biden administration ignored, like violent criminal illegal aliens or those who have been deported before.
“It’s the worst crime in the world when you sexually assault a child,” <a href="https://x.com/KassyAkiva/status/1916861488616133083" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Homan said</a> in a White House press briefing on Monday. “That’s why I made a statement that one time I was going to go to Boston and bring hell with me.”

During the ride-along on Friday, ICE arrested 55-year-old Miguel Angel Chavez, who was convicted on two counts of indecent assault and battery on a child under 14 and deported in 2013. Chavez, a citizen of El Salvador, illegally re-entered the United States at an unknown place and time following his first deportation.

The second arrestee during the mission was 69-year-old Jose Lazaro Ayala, who illegally entered the country undetected and was convicted in September of leaving the scene of an accident involving an injured person or death. Ayala is pending removal to El Salvador, according to ICE.
“These aren&#8217;t the people you want in your neighborhood,” Lyons said. “These arrests right here show what we&#8217;ve done these first 100 days and what Secretary Noem and President Trump have been really pushing for: that ICE gets the worst of the worst.”
ICE was unable to target three other criminal illegal aliens in the mission, possibly because poor weather kept them from going to their outdoor jobs.

The Daily Wire witnessed firsthand the challenges ICE is facing in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/tom-homan-biden-first-president-to-intentionally-leave-border-unsecured" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sanctuary jurisdictions</a> during the ride-along. According to Lyons, migrants are attracted to places like Massachusetts because of its generous social service benefits. Numerous sanctuary cities make deportations more difficult by often refusing to cooperate with ICE.
“One of the big difficulties operating in our sanctuary jurisdiction is that these are actual public safety threats,” he said. “A jail, a police department, a sheriff&#8217;s department, and state police have deemed these individuals a public safety threat and locked them up. Yet instead of working with the federal government, they decide to release them back on the street.”

Lyons said that in sanctuary jurisdictions, agents have to work harder to surveil targets and gather information about them to plan arrests.
“For these two today, anywhere between 40 to 80 hours could have been put in just on surveillance in research into these crimes, because, number one, there are ghosts,” he said.
“The state doesn&#8217;t provide us driver&#8217;s license data, registration data. So really, the men and women of ICE have to go and create these cases on their own and then get out there and do surveillance and try to get court and police records.”

(Yisroel Teitelbaum)</div>
By not working with ICE, sanctuary cities increase the number of deportations, according to Lyons. Instead of simply picking up criminal illegal aliens at jails, ICE is forced to track them down at their workplaces or in their neighborhoods. This often results in other illegal aliens — violent criminals or not — being arrested as well.

Lyons credited ICE’s recent success to Trump’s whole-of-government approach, which pairs ICE with agents from other federal agencies, including the FBI, DEA, IRS, Diplomatic Security Service, and others.
“With no doubt, ICE is helping the president establish his goals and his pledges that he made during the campaign, which was to get the worst of the worst outside of our communities, and I think this first hundred days have been a great success,” Lyons said.

WATCH: ICE Agents Bring Hell To Boston With The Daily Wire

Deportations

Tom Homan

A Republican wearing a pro-Trump hat was followed and harassed by a man who swore at him and repeatedly called him a Nazi on Thursday, according to video of the Boston incident.
Nicky Miceli, a state committeeman for the Massachusetts GOP representing the Middlesex and Norfolk District, was walking down the street in the Fenway neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, when he was approached by a man screaming at him for wearing a hat emblazoned with a 47 on it for President Donald Trump.
“He saw me wearing the hat that said ‘47’ and proceeded to shout profanities and spit on my foot,” Miceli told The Daily Wire. “I immediately started recording as he repeatedly screamed and spit on my face.”

In the video, the unnamed man is seen repeatedly calling Miceli a Nazi and telling him to get off his campus.
“You’re on my f**king campus with that f**king hat on, get the f**k out of here,” the man shouted.
In response, Miceli pointed out he was walking down a public street near Wentworth University, but not on campus.
“Take your f***king fascist hat off,” the man said with several profanities. “Look at this f**king Nazi. 47. This guy supports Trump, has his f**king hat on.”
At one point, the man sees a group of people and encourages them to taunt Miceli. 
“Take your gay f**king white gold Trump hat off,” The man said. “He’s a f**king loser and you’re a f**king Nazi punk. Boo this co******er, boo him!&#8221;
Once Miceli reached a corner, the man shouted some more before he finally stopped following him.
The belligerent man appeared to be wearing a hat from the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 103, the union representing electricians and telecommunications specialists in Boston.
“I wear the hat often to practice my freedom of speech and expression,” Miceli said. “I think it’s just years of being gaslighted by the media into being so hateful.”
Miceli said he got the hat at TPUSA’s America Fest in Arizona last December.
IBEW 103 did not respond to a request for comment.

Unhinged Lunatic Harasses Trump Supporter Wearing ‘47’ Hat Walking Down Boston Street

After saying he would go to Boston, “bringing hell with me” after the Boston police commissioner said he would not aid ICE in finding illegal immigrants, border czar Tom Homan was accused of lying about the city by its Democratic Mayor Michelle Wu. On Monday, Homan reported that he had made good on his promise and led a team that reportedly found 370 illegal aliens in Boston and surrounding areas, with a majority being significant criminals.
On February 16, Democrat-appointed Boston Police Commissioner Michael Cox <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/boston-police-commissioner-doubles-down-ice-resistance-we-dont-enforce-detainers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">echoed</a> Wu, who had promised resistance to the deportations enforced by the Trump administration. Cox said Boston police officers “don’t have authority to enforce federal immigration law.” When asked if his perspective countered federal immigration law, Cox said the Boston Police Department has pretty defined rules and abides by state law.
Speaking at CPAC on February 22, Homan said he would go to Boston while quoting Kurt Russell as Wyatt Earp in the classic Western film “Tombstone”:
<blockquote>
I read a story last night, the police commissioner of Boston, You said you’d double down on not helping the law enforcement officers of ICE. I’m coming to Boston. I’m bringing hell with me. I looked at the numbers this morning; I stopped counting at nine. Nine child rapists that were in jail in Massachusetts, but rather than honoring an ICE detainer, released them back into the street. You’re not a police commissioner; take that badge off your chest, put it in the desk drawer. You became a politician. You forgot what it’s like to be a cop. And guess what? The men and women of Immigration and Custom Enforcement, they found those predators, and they’re locked back up, and we’re going to deport them from the United States.

Roughly two weeks later, Wu <a href="https://www.facebook.com/reel/573946825689920" target="_blank" rel="noopener">testified</a> before Congress, stating, “Let’s talk about Tom Homan. Shame on him for lying about my city, for having the nerve to insult our police commissioner, who has overseen the safest Boston has been in anyone’s lifetime.”
On Monday, Homan, a former police officer, fired back. He stated on X:
<blockquote>
I made a promise at CPAC that I was going to Boston after reading about numerous illegal alien child rapists walking the streets of Boston and Massachusetts. ICE had to find and arrest these illegal alien rapists because Massachusetts and Boston are sanctuaries that refuse to cooperate with ICE. They would rather release these animals back into the community rather than honor ICE detainers or notify ICE when they are scheduled to be released.  Mayor Chu later testified that I was lying. Well, I traveled to Boston last Tuesday, as promised, and we kicked off a five day operation with ICE, FBI, ATF, DEA, US Marshals and DSS. These incredible men and women arrested a total of 370 Illegal aliens in Boston and surrounding areas.  A majority of the 370 being significant criminals. 
These arrests included 6 foreign fugitives, including four who were wanted for murder or to serve a criminal sentence for murder, along with drug traffickers, child sexual predators and numerous other violent public safety threats.  These officers and agents made the neighborhoods of Boston and Massachusetts much safer.  They risked their own safety by arresting these criminals on the street, rather than a jail. Governor Healy and Mayor Wu should be ashamed of supporting sanctuary policies.  Releasing public safety threats back into the public, rather than working with ICE at the jails, puts the public at great risk. President Trump’s &#8220;all of government effort&#8221; to arrest and remove the WORST FiRST is making our communities safer every day.  President Trump is a Game Changer who is keeping his promises to the American people. Much more to do, but it will be done!

White House Border Czar Tom Homan Speaks To Reporters At The White House

Homan Does Indeed ‘Bring Hell’ To Boston: ‘Much More To Do, But It Will Be Done!’

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in Boston, Massachusetts, reportedly claimed that illegal immigrant offenders were being put back on the streets after being slapped with &#8220;ridiculously low bail&#8221; despite the fact that the charges against them included violent sex crimes involving children, according to Fox News reporter Bill Melugin.
Melugin shared details uncovered in a CBS Boston <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/massachusetts-immigrants-charged-violent-crimes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">investigation</a> that he said proved those allegations to be true.
&#8220;NEW: CBS looked into ICE Boston claims that illegal aliens charged w/ child rape in MA are repeatedly being released from jail w/ ridiculously low bail. They found that yes, they are, including the following in recent months,&#8221; Melugin began before laying out a partial list of what had been discovered: &#8220;Guatemalan charged w/ 3 counts of aggravated child rape released on $7,500 bail. (ICE detainer ignored); Guatemalan charged w/ aggravated child rape, (victim age 9 or below) released on $7,500 bail. (ICE detainer ignored); Honduran charged w/ assault to rape &amp; masked armed robbery released on his own recognizance with $0 bail. (ICE detainer ignored); Worcester County had two illegal alien inmates charged w/ child rape who both received $500 bails; Another was charged w/ fentanyl trafficking and released on $4,000 bond before ICE could arrive.&#8221;

Border czar Tom Homan had put a spotlight on Boston during the Conservative Political Action Conference, telling Boston Police Commissioner Michael Cox, &#8220;You&#8217;re not a police commissioner. Take that badge off your chest. Put it in the desk drawer.&#8221;
Homan said at the time that Boston authorities were releasing illegal immigrant offenders back into the community despite ICE detainers ordering them to cooperate with federal immigration authorities.
A Massachusetts state law barring illegal immigrants from being held solely on the basis of their immigration status has muddied the waters some, especially after the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled in 2017 that illegal immigrant offenders could not be held once they posted bail — even if there was an ICE detainer involved — pursuant to that law (Lunn v. Commonwealth).
&#8220;Massachusetts law provides no authority for Massachusetts court officers to arrest and hold an individual solely on the basis of a Federal civil immigration detainer, beyond the time that the individual would otherwise be entitled to be released from State custody,&#8221; the ruling stated.

Violent Crime

Ken Casey, lead singer of the Celtic punk rock band Dropkick Murphys, didn’t hold back his opinion of a fan who attended a show in Boston over the weekend with a MAGA hat in tow.
He began his rant by saying that Republicans “all wear” a “Chinese f***ing red” MAGA hat, which he claims is “dyeing their brains.” Casey continued, saying, “They&#8217;ve got the black-on-black Elon Musk, true Nazi edition. And then my man here, he&#8217;s getting ready for summer with a nice, f***in&#8217; white one.&#8221;
“Bro, listen, I admire your dedication,” the Dropkick Murphys singer continued while addressing the fan, “But I will ask everyone, if you’re in a room full of people and you want to know who’s in a cult, how do you know who’s in a cult?” He pointed at the fan. “They’ve been holding up a f***ing hat the whole night to represent a president.”
“This is America,” he yelled, “there’s no kings here!”

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
As the audience cheered, Casey said, “Anyway, anyway, if you mind, sir, we’re gonna play a song about our grandparents and people who fought Nazis in the war and s***. So if you could just shut the f*** up for five minutes.”
The band has singled out Trump voters in the past. At a show in Clearwater, Florida, in March, Casey made headlines for singling out a fan wearing MAGA gear and betting that the items he was wearing were not made in the United States.
“The reason we speak out, we don’t care if we lose fans, because when history is said and done, we want it known that the Dropkick Murphys stood with the people, we stood with the workers,” Casey said at the time. “It’s all a f***ing scam, guys.”
He also <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/punk-singer-dropkick-murphys-bet-maga-shirt-made-usa-2042315">bragged</a> that Dropkick Murphys “always sells proudly made in America merchandise only.” Casey said to the concertgoer, “And here’s the bet I’d like to make: If you lose the bet, we switch shirts, OK? If you win the bet, I give you $100 and the shirt.”
“It’s made in Nicaragua!” Casey said from the stage. “He’s taking the shirt off. We’re taking crime off the streets.”
The band formed in Quincy, Massachusetts, in 1996 with Casey being the only remaining original member. Dropkick Murphys are known for taking influence from Irish heritage when creating their music.
