Chicago school district says it was wrong about ICE agents going to a school
Story by Phil Helsel • 6h


Chicago Public Schools said its officials erred Friday when they claimed immigration agents had gone to a school, mistaken information that caused alarm amid fears of a new White House administration.

The agents who went to Hamline Elementary School were actually with U.S. Secret Service, and not Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as district officials initially said.
 
A spokesperson for the Secret Service said they were “investigating a threat to one of our protectees in reference to the recent TikTok ban,” and had gone to a home next to the school, and then to the school itself.

“Secret Service does not investigate or enforce immigration matters,” the Secret Service spokesman, Anthony Gugliemi, said in the statement to NBC Chicago.

What an unfortunate "oversight" *****rollingeyes***** by CPS to not even check with the school to verify the rumor before blaming ICE. :bs:
