mericans who oppose President Donald Trump’s deportation operation are using social media to warn undocumented immigrants about Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids. The posts reveal the location of both ongoing raids and those that users heard will take place. One Facebook user posted about a raid at a Home Depot in Houston and wrote, “Support our Hispanic Community!” “We are here for our families and we have so many blessings,” the person wrote in Spanish. “And education for their sacrifices for our Hispanic community.” Another post warned anyone who was undocumented to be careful and stay inside. The post contained a list of 13 alleged ICE checkpoints in the Houston area. A Nebraska-based immigration law firm made a post with advice and reminders for undocumented immigrants if they encounter officers. The post said individuals are not obligated to speak with a law enforcement agent, they are not obligated to open their door unless they have a warrant, and the warrant is not valid unless it is signed by a judge. As of Wednesday, Jan. 29, ICE had announced more than 5,500 arrests since the Trump administration began. The agency highlighted criminals, including known or suspected terrorists, weapons and drug traffickers and murderers. Some on social media opposed those who sent out warnings. They believe ICE should be able to remove those in the country illegally, especially those with criminal histories. “The fact that people in Colorado are WARNING IMMIGRANTS about ICE raid locations is disgusting,” one user posted on X. It is not uncommon for ICE plans to leak or for ongoing raids to be flagged on social media. A few days before the Trump administration began, ICE had to adjust plans after press reports about an operation scheduled in Chicago for that week.
