Journalists have captured many striking images of ICE and Border Patrol operations in Illinois — and documented the people demonstrating against them. We’ll talk about what it’s like covering the chaos through the lens of a camera.

Illinois state Rep. Hoan Huynh, D-Chicago, says a federal agent pointed a gun at him last week. The government says he was interfering in immigration enforcement; he says he was warning constituents about their rights.

“We don’t have any weapons; we were only recording what they’re doing," Hyunh told The 21st Show. "And if what they’re doing is actually legal, then they should not be afraid for it to be documented.”

The Trump administration has expanded the scope of ICE operations in Chicago and its suburbs, but state and local officials — as well as everyday citizens — are pushing back.

Illinois Gov. Pritzker went to Washington this week to defend the state's sanctuary policies. In our Friday politics roundup, we talk about that, immigration enforcement actions in Chicago, and protests against ICE.
