Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday night that the Justice Department has opened investigations into Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot over sustained efforts to dox and obstruct federal immigration agents.
While speaking with Fox News, host Jesse Watters asked about recent comments from former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, who announced a new project aimed at “unmasking” U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents nationwide.
“We want to create a centralized archive of all the purported criminal actions of ICE and CBP agents,” Lightfoot said of her new website while speaking with Fox 32 Chicago. “We want to create a portal where what’s happening real time can be centralized and put out for the public to view.”
Bondi confirmed to Watters that the Justice Department had already sent a legal notice to Lightfoot instructing her to preserve all relevant records to the formation of the database, adding that the department was probing for potential criminal wrongdoing.
“She will be getting a letter from us tomorrow to preserve anything that she’s done, as well to make sure that she’s not violating the law. It appears she is. You cannot disclose the identity of a federal agent, where they live, anything that could harm them,” she said. The attorney general went on to state that additional prominent Democrats would be receiving similar notices.
“Pritzker? Same ballgame with him. Pelosi got a letter today from Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. So did Brooke Jenkins, that DA in San Francisco. We told them, preserve your emails, preserve everything you have on this topic, because if you are telling people to arrest our ICE officers, our federal agents. You cannot do that. You’re impeding an investigation, and we will charge them if they think I won’t.”
Bondi went on to reiterate that her department is committed to ensuring the safety of federal agents.
