As the Trump administration begins its round-up of illegal immigrants across the country, cities who have yet to see raids are begging that their communities be next.
Since Trump took office, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has already arrested nearly 500 criminal migrants in Denver, Atlanta, Miami, Philadelphia, Seattle and Washington, D.C., according to Fox News.
As DailyMail.com exclusively reported, ICE is targeting criminal immigrants and those who have pending deportation orders.

‘This is an all-hands-on-deck situation where they are using all the agents they have at their disposal.’
However, other towns that have dealt with the toughest consequences of the border crisis are also waiting for their turn.
‘I do hope to God that Tom Homan, with ICE, brings that kind of ‘America First’ agenda here and they take care of that,’ Kyle Sinclair, the Vice Chair of the Bexar County Republican Party in San Antonio, Texas told DailyMail.com.
In San Antonio, a major hub for migrants during the Biden years, at least 636,953 migrants went through the city’s migrant shelter since 2021, according to the shelter.

South American gangsters took over at least four apartment complexes near the migrant shelter, victimizing other migrants who were threatening into paying them rent.
The thugs, known to wear red, also took control of empty apartment units and used them to prostitute women and children and deal drugs.
At least 19 suspected TdA members were arrested in October, including a man police called a TdA ‘enforcer’– a gangster in a leadership role and likely direct ties to the Venezuela.
‘Because we had an enforcer from the TdA gang in San Antonio, and with the migrant center, that they have to put a focal point on San Antonio,’ Sinclair reasoned.
Instead, Sinclair has been horrified to see Mayor Ron Nirenberg tweeting in defiance of the Trump Administration.

Even though San Antonio and Bexar County have traditionally been an overwhelming blue part of the state, support for the Republican agenda in the 2024 election was at all-time high– winning 45% of the local vote.
‘It’s sweeping across this nation that people want change, so doubling down, like the mayor, the city council, the county judge is not the answer,’ the Republican vice-chair added.
‘The nation has spoken: we don’t like what is going on at the border.’
In Idaho, conservatives are also calling on Trump Border Czar Tom Homan to turn his attention to the Gem State.
‘Attention, Mr. Homan, could you please send some illegal immigration raids to the businesses owned by Idaho State Rep. Stephanie Mickelson? She has been bragging about how many illegals her businesses employ,’ the veteran turned politician tweeted.

‘I am confident that Chicagoans are going to step up– we are ready to assist in any way we can, Cata Truss, who sued the Democratic city over its spending of local tax dollars to house migrants, told Fox News.
‘There are those of us who are willing to work with this administration to make sure that people who are here illegally are sent back home.’
