 California Councilwoman's Husband Arrested by ICE Amid Trump Crackdown
Story by Dan Gooding • 13h

Federal agents arrested a California councilwoman's husband in a Walmart parking lot on Monday, a move she said came out of nowhere.

Yadira Perez, who sits on the Coachella City Council, captured the moment when Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents surrounded them before arresting her husband, Isidro Jimenez-Ibanez.
 
"My family was just separated. They have taken my kids' father. Those are the desperate cries of help," the councilmember said in a video shared on social media. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) later said the man is a Mexican national in the country illegally, with an extensive criminal record.

Newsweek reached out to Perez via email and the FBI via phone for comment.

Why It Matters
Jimenez-Ibanez's arrest comes amid increased ICE operations across the country to detain illegal immigrant criminals. President Donald Trump was elected on the back of a campaign promising such action, with new Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem promising violent criminals would be swiftly deported.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

You don't suppose she married a criminal thug in hopes of keeping him in the country, do you? :yowsa:

ICE said that Jimenez-Ibanez was being held pending removal proceedings, but he was reportedly released on bond on Tuesday, pending a hearing in April.

He can use his time to make travel arraignments to another country.  A family that deports together stays together.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Sorry lady, this isn't 2020 anymore.  That left wing victim reward card had an expiration date on it of November 5, 2024.
