Immigration agents "raided" a business in Newark on Thursday, according to the city's mayor.

Summary

Newark Mayor Ras Baraka criticized ICE agents for “raiding” a local business without a warrant, detaining several individuals, including U.S. citizens, a military veteran, and undocumented immigrants.

Baraka called the actions a violation of the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unlawful searches and seizures, and vowed Newark would not tolerate such behavior.

ICE confirmed the operation was part of an active investigation, claiming they may request IDs to verify identities during fieldwork.

    This is literally the premise to this 80’s movie.

      Also something that happened 100 years ago. The US deported thousands of US citizens because they were Hispanic.

      I own that movie and every since Trump won it’s exactly how I believe it will go down. If you speak Spanish I be careful where you do it. People in Texas lately have been itching to have anyone who does round up.

      Try explain to my dad just because they speak Spanish doesn’t make them illegal. But him and rest mega don’t believe it or the truth don’t care.
