DHS Rediscover ICE Raids, Right on Time for Election-Year Optics
DHS, led by Kristi Noem, is dusting off ICE's worksite enforcement arm, suddenly interested in 'rampant fraud' in Minnesota. This, after conveniently downplaying such actions for most of 2025, even apologizing for a Hyundai raid. Now, thanks to some viral videos and pre-election political posturing, ICE is on TikTok, raiding businesses over I-9s. Curious, isn't it? Funny how 'worksite enforcement'
and 'fraud' become priority buzzwords when it's politically expedient to target certain communities, particularly after Operation Twin Shield (per Axios) and former President Trump's recent calls for ICE action against 'Somalis' in Minneapolis. The timing isn't for 'justice,' it's for optics.
