A raid last month in Chicago has signaled a sharp escalation in the White House's immigration crackdown and ratcheted up tensions in a city already on edge.

The Trump administration has agreed to extend a federal judge's temporary block on deploying National Guard troops to Chicago while the U.S. Supreme Court weighs whether to stay the judge's order.

The Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court to allow the National Guard to protect federal immigration enforcement operations in Chicago.

The immense show of force signaled a sharp escalation in the White House’s immigration crackdown and amplified tensions in a city already on edge. “To every criminal illegal alien: Darkness is no longer your ally,” Homeland Security said in a social media post accompanying the video, which racked up more than 6.4 million views. “We will find you.”

Trump asked the Supreme Court to allow him to deploy National Guard troops in Chicago while a lawsuit challenging the mission is litigated.

Mayor Brandon Johnson stopped by Good Day Chicago on Tuesday to discuss a range of topics, including his proposed budget, the city's lawsuit against the Trump administration, and immigration tensions that have been mounting.

A judge says she will require federal immigration officers in the Chicago area to wear body cameras after the use of tear gas used against protesters.

US District Judge Sara Ellis still has questions. During a hearing Monday, she pressed two federal officials over the response to ongoing and intense protests in Chicago amid Operation Midway Blitz, especially after she expanded her temporary restraining order to include having agents on the ground turn on their body worn cameras when encountering demonstrators.
