U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) reportedly arrested 370 illegal aliens in Boston, Massachusetts, and surrounding areas this past week — after border czar Tom Homan previously promised to “bring hell” to Boston.

Regarding Boston, Homan also warned in November 2024 that “if you don’t want to work with us, then get the hell out of the way." We’re going to do it. What it means is, rather than sending 100 people to Boston, we’re going to send 200 agents to Boston. We’re going to get the job done.”

Homan said that the most recent joint operation lasted for 5-days and included multiple agencies, including ICE, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), a number of U.S. Marshals, and the U.S. Diplomatic Security Service.

“I made a promise at CPAC that I was going to Boston after reading about the numerous illegal alien child rapists walking the streets of Boston and Massachusetts. ICE had to find and arrest these illegal alien rapists because Massachusetts and Boston are sanctuaries that refuse to cooperate with ICE,” Homan wrote in a Monday X post.

“They would rather release these animals back into the community rather than honor ICE detainers or notify ICE when they are scheduled to be released.  Mayor Wu later testified that I was lying. Well, I traveled to Boston last Tuesday, as promised, and we kicked off a five-day operation with ICE, FBI, ATF, DEA, US Marshals and DSS. These incredible men and women arrested a total of 370 illegal aliens in Boston and surrounding areas.  The majority of the 370 being significant criminals,” he continued.

Homan went on to explain that out of the 370 arrests, six of them were “foreign fugitives” and four of them were “wanted for murder or to serve a criminal sentence for murder, along with drug traffickers, child sexual predators and numerous other violent public safety threats.”

“These officers and agents have made the neighborhoods of Boston and Massachusetts much safer.  They risked their own safety by arresting these criminals on the street, rather than a jail. Governor Healey and Mayor Wu should be ashamed of supporting sanctuary policies.  Releasing public safety threats back into the public, rather than working with ICE at the jails, puts the public at great risk,” Homan added.

Homan’s condemnation of Boston Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu followed after she slammed him for criticizing the city’s police commissioner, who had released nine child rapists from jail. Boston’s “sanctuary” status, according to Wu, is crucial to ensuring that illegals in the city feel at ease and are thriving.

“I read a story last night that the police commissioner of Boston, you said you’d double down on not helping ICE law enforcement officers of ICE. I’m coming to Boston. I’m bringing hell with me. I looked at the numbers this morning; I stopped counting at nine. Nine child rapists who were in jail in Massachusetts, but rather than honoring an ICE detainer, released them back onto the street. You’re not the police commissioner; take that badge off your chest and put it in the desk drawer. You became a politician,” Homan stated at the Conservative Political Action Conference in February.

“President Trump’s ‘all of government effort’ to arrest and remove the WORST FIRST is making our communities safer every day.  President Trump is a Game Changer who is keeping his promises to the American people. Much more to do, but it will be done!”

Obama-Appointed Judge Argues ‘Nazis Got Better Treatment’ Than Deported Tren De Aragua Gang Members

A Barack Obama-appointed federal judge slammed President Donald Trump, claiming that the United States treated Nazis better during World War II than the Trump administration has treated Venezuelan gang members.

In 2013, Obama nominated Patricia Millett to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

Judge Millett’s comments were in reference to the over 200 Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang members who were deported last week — which was carried out through the Alien Enemies Act.

“Tren de Aragua (TdA) is a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization with thousands of members, many of whom have unlawfully infiltrated the United States and are conducting irregular warfare and undertaking hostile actions against the United States. TdA operates in conjunction with Cártel de los Soles, a Nicolas Maduro regime-sponsored, narco-terrorism enterprise based in Venezuela, and commits brutal crimes, including murders, kidnappings, extortions, and human, drug, and weapons trafficking,” the White House stated.

The judge explained her thoughts on the matter.

“There were plane loads of people. There were no procedures in place to notify people,” Millett asserted, grilling a Justice Department lawyer over the deportation of illegal immigrants.

“Nazis got better treatment under the Alien Enemy Act than has happened here,” she continued. “There’s no regulations, and nothing was adopted by the agency officials that were administering this. People weren’t given notice. They weren’t told where they were going. They were given those people on those planes on that Saturday and had no opportunity to file habeas or any type of action to challenge their removal.”

Deputy Assistant Attorney General Drew Ensign responded soon after, stating, “Well, Your Honor, we certainly dispute the Nazi ideology,” pointing out that some of the individuals were able to file habeas petitions.

A habeas petition is a legal filing individuals can make to challenge the legality of their detention — where a court will determine if their detainment was justified under the law.

District Judge James Boasberg, who was appointed by President George W. Bush, also temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s ability to deport illegals from the country under the Alien Enemies Act on March 15th.

Boasberg also denied the federal government’s request to lift the temporary hold on deportations under the Alien Enemies Act, claiming that the deported individuals are up against a “likelihood of potential torture.”

“In Salvadoran prisons, deportees are reportedly ‘highly likely to face immediate and intentional life-threatening harm at the hands of state actors,’” he wrote. “As the government itself concedes, the awesome power granted by the Act may be brought to bear only on those who are, in fact, ‘alien enemies.’”

Meanwhile, the Trump administration has requested the appeals court to intervene and are expected to issue a decision in the coming days.

Millett continued, explaining to Ensign that she “feels like there was no time” for the individuals to challenge the detentions, and “were only able to [file] because the district court froze things.”
