— New ICE director in Chicago criticizes the city’s sanctuary ordinance. But
Mayor Lightfoot shows up and calls his comments ‘nonsense.’ – ELVIA MALAGÓN and
GREGORY PRATT (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats make it clear that they
hate America and that they hate Americans.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-ice-chicago-immigration-santuary-cities-raids-20190926-ngmxwhe5fzb6jmbgwelfhppati-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Of
course we know that we’ve hurt (ICE agents) and hurt their ability to do their
job here in the city, but so be it,” Lightfoot told the crowd of protesters who
gathered around her. “That’s the point.” Chicago’s sanctuary city ordinance
bars police from giving federal ICE officials access to people in local
custody. Among other things, it also prohibits on-duty police officers from
talking with ICE officials before a person’s release, or allowing ICE agents to
use local police facilities for investigations or interviews.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Harvard economist Raj Chetty says that, for white Americans, achieving the
American dream is like climbing an income ladder. “If you’ve climbed up in one
generation, that’s basically where you’re going to start the next generation,
and then you can climb up further.” But for black Americans, and black men in
particular, “it’s like being on a treadmill, where even after you’ve climbed up
in one generation, there are tremendous structural forces that make it highly
likely you’re going to fall back down in the next generation and then you have
to make the climb again.”)
