U.S. Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino said Tuesday federal immigration enforcement officers would remain in Chicago “for years,” even after months of controversy surrounding the Trump administration’s crackdown on immigrants in the Windy City.
“If you think we’re done with Chicago, you’d better check yourself before you wreck yourself,” Bovino wrote in a statement on social platform X.
“Don’t call it a comeback; we’re gonna be here for years,” he added.
The post included a video of immigration officers chasing, tackling and arresting people, with an overlay of the song “Mama Said Knock You Out” by LL Cool J.
In the clip, one officer could be seen waving his finger through the hole of his pants, mocking the Chicago arrests. Some Chicago residents strongly oppose the Trump administration’s immigration operations, leading to mass demonstrations.
