Welcome back to the Daily Memo. Let’s start off with some quick headlines. ICE remains active and continues to conduct targeted attacks. A 2-month-old baby was sent to the hospital from the Dilley Detention Center in Texas, then deported with her mother and father the same day. A teacher was killed as a result of an ICE in a car chase. Shake-ups and changes continue with DHS, and lawmakers in other states are trying to criminalize ICE observers while one in California is trying to protect them.
As I reported last week, yes, CBP, the masked goons performing the roving raids, have left Terminal Island and, from my sources, have all left back to their border patrol stations along the border. But ICE is still active. In Minnesota, they’re still getting hit hard, but I’ve gotten some intel telling me that ICE is spreading out and targeting smaller neighborhoods. It’s too soon to say if that’s the same situation here, but here’s what we’re seeing in the Southland.
Around Los Angeles and Orange County, ICE is still grabbing people who show up to their immigration appointments. ICE also has a big presence in the I.E. and San Bernardino County. Saturday, and today they hit Montclair hard. They were also spotted, as has been usual, at the Rancho Cucamonga courthouse. They also targeted the Downey courthouse, where they were caught forcing one man into their vehicle. ICE also targeted and took one person in Bell Gardens. That family has been connected to resources.
ICE is also all over National City down south, where one woman was taken from her car, which was found abandoned. The Home Depot in Escondido has become a favorite target of ICE lately, with 4-5 recent appearances. They took another day laborer in the parking lot today. ICE was also spotted at an apartment complex on Columbine and Sycamore in Santa Ana. Thanks to community watchers from the Orange County Rapid Response Network who responded and alerted the community, the agents left before anyone was taken. ICE was also spotted in Sun Valley, Colton, and Piru, but we don’t have any reports of anyone taken.
