Dr. Phil Supports ICE in Chicago Crackdown

Dr. Phil, a well-known TV host, joined U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations in Chicago, supporting President Donald Trump's intensified immigration crackdown. The operation focused on arresting 270 'high-value targets' as part of a broader effort to address undocumented criminals in sanctuary cities. Trump's administration, having deputized multiple federal law enforcement agencies, aims to enhance public safety by targeting individuals with criminal records. Dr. Phil defended the operations as targeted rather than indiscriminate neighborhood sweeps. His involvement has drawn attention to controversial sanctuary city policies, which critics argue allow dangerous criminals to remain in the U.S. The raids have faced criticism from local and state officials, who express concern over the broader implications of these enforcement tactics.
