ICE's Chicago raid: Black Hawk helicopters, flashbangs, kids in zip ties - CNN Table for Five [View all]
Adults and children alike were pulled from their Chicago apartments, crying and screaming, during a large overnight raid that has left tenants and neighbors shaken. All were part of a multiagency operation that led to the arrest of 37 undocumented immigrants, most of them from Venezuela but also including people from Mexico, Nigeria and Colombia, a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson told CNN.
In the past weeks, federal agents have been deployed on the streets of Chicago and have arrested more than 800 undocumented immigrants since September 8 during what the administration has titled “Operation Midway Blitz,” according to a news release from DHS. Tenants said it appears everyone in the building was detained by federal officers, including US citizens.
In an animated debate, CNN's Abby Phillip discusses with her "Table for Five" panel: podcast co-host Van Lathan, former New Hampshire GOP Congressional candidate Gail Huff Brown, CNN senior political commentator Scott Jennings and CNN political commentator Ashley Allison. - Aired on 10/04/2025.
