In a move generating considerable tension, Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove visited Chicago on Sunday to witness firsthand the ongoing immigration enforcement operations heavily endorsed by President Donald Trump.

The visit occurred amid significant apprehension among Chicago's immigrant communities, who stand braced for large-scale immigration arrests. Bove's presence aimed to support federal efforts involving agencies such as the FBI and ATF, according to the Justice Department.
