2:26Ben Meiselas:Monday.com AI agents took over my work. And I absolutely love it. Chasing deadlines, writing status reports, updating stakeholders. Agents handle the daily grind now. I stay in the loop only when it matters. Create your own AI agent in minutes on Monday.com. Donald Trump has been caught on camera, folks. We have the receipts. We have the photos. We have the video. I want to lay out the evidence as I would when I was a litigator. In just the past 48 hours, we saw Donald Trump's Department of Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem, post photographs of an American citizen whose home was unlawfully raided by ICE agents.

3:09Ben Meiselas:And she showed a photo and tried to conflate this individual with another individual who appears to have been wrongfully shot and killed by ICE agents in Illinois. I want to go through all of the facts and evidence that we have and just lay it out for you. And I want to show you some of the other atrocities that are being documented. So join me. Let's share this video with as many people as you can. It's important that we get the word out. This first video I want to show you, though, is a video of ICE detaining a Chicago man who has a work permit. He had to abandon his wife and two small children in the middle of an intersection.

3:51Ben Meiselas:He was telling the agents, I'm legal. I have my status, but they didn't care. He first refused to get out until agents started banging on his car, causing his kids to freak out in fear. They took him with them and left no information for the mom, said the council president. Even after a volunteer group helped the family find an immigration attorney, they still have no idea where he is. The arrest took place in the Little Village community of Chicago, Illinois. Here, play this clip. An ICE agent tells the couple in the car they need to open the door. The woman replies not to open the door because they're legal.

4:32She shared this video she shot inside the car with the Little Village Community Council. Anita Clotta witnessed the exchange from the sidewalk. She says they told him to get out of the car and when he didn't, they started hitting the car. Then he got out of the car and the wife and kids were crying. It happened late this morning at the corner of 24th and South Albany. Afterward, the wife and two young children sat nearby in tears, wondering where they had taken their husband and father. He was telling them, you know, I'm legal. I have my legal status, but they didn't care. They just kidnapped them, took them with them, left no information for the mom.

5:11Balthazar Enriquez, president of the Little Village Community Council, is trying to help get legal representation for those who have been detained, but the numbers are growing. A short time later, just a few blocks away, more ICE agents stop a Venezuelan man taking him into custody as well. Noemi Rivera witnessed as they brought him in handcuffs to their car. She says, I got very scared and nervous because I saw everything and I shot the video. We made several unsuccessful attempts to reach out to ICE for comments. It was with this backdrop that some Pilsen neighbors are celebrating El Grito tonight.

5:51It's supposed to be a reminder for Mexican people to fight for freedom, dignity and respect. Tonight, that is difficult for some. Even people that have legal status, we're also fearful. The family of the man detained earlier today at 24th and Albany is working with an attorney to try to determine where he's being held and whether he can be released on bond.

6:12Ben Meiselas:All right. Now, this is the video I was talking about at the outset. Christy Noem personally joined ICE in Chicago for a raid, but arrested a U.S. citizen by mistake. He was woken up by an explosion that literally blew the doors off his house. Agents handcuffed him, featured him in a propaganda video that Kristi Noem published, which they released even after the arrest was proven to be a mistake. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem shared this video on all of her social media handles of four men, including Joe Botello, being dragged out of his house. Neither the video nor her message admits that Joe Botello is a U.S.

6:57Ben Meiselas:citizen who they were forced to release. The ice raid occurred in the Chicago suburb of Elgin, Illinois. I want you to watch what happens as this Elgin man, who is a U.S. citizen, was detained in the latest Chicago area ice blitz. They're calling their military style operation Midway Blitz. and what they're trying to do is exactly what we warned you, provoke the community so that somebody reacts potentially violently and then bring in the military and say they need to put down an insurrection. This is what they're trying to provoke there. And thanks to Governor Pritzker and other leaders, the citizens in Chicago know what's up.

7:37Ben Meiselas:But here, play this clip. I spoke to that contractor over there. He was called by the homeowner to repair the damage. He says both the front door and back door are busted in. Now, Secretary Kristi Noem sent out a tweet that reads in part, I was on the ground in Chicago today to make it clear we are not backing down. That post on X also included video showing several people being led away in handcuffs. We have witness video that was taken after a person describes hearing an explosion around 5.50 this morning. You can see armed officers shining flashlights at a door and into a window as well. Another neighbor told us about the response from law enforcement that came from the air.

8:21Ben Meiselas:Awakened at 20 to 6 by the drone of the helicopter flying overhead, circling the house, circling the neighborhood. Spotlight on right over the house. Very unusual in our usually quiet neighborhood. Back out here live, people in the neighborhood are slowly filtering over here to see this damage. Everyone walking up to us wants to know what the people were taken into custody for. Well, according to Secretary Noem, she indicated on social media their offenses include DUI, felony stalking and assault. We know that members of a rapid response team are walking around the neighborhood trying to be on standby in case there are any more ICE arrests.

9:01I also wanted to tell you that Representative Lauren Underwood from the northwest suburbs says she got debriefed by ICE recently, who told her that since September 6th, there have been 250 ICE arrests in the Chicago area. I'm Lauren Victory reporting live in Elgin this morning, CBS News Chicago.

9:18Ben Meiselas:So here was the updated video, which talks about how there were actually two U.S. citizens detained during the ICE raid in Chicago that Kristi Noem personally participated in. State Senator Kristina Castro, when asked for comment about Kristi Noem showing up there and engaging in an unlawful raid herself, I mean, Noem did it herself. State Senator Kristi Noem says, go to hell, don't come to my community. Here, play this clip. Now a big development just in about an early morning immigration effort that took place in northwest suburban Elgin. Our Sabrina Franza is there. Sabrina, you just spoke to one of the men who was detained and now released.

10:01Joe, Erica, we're now hearing that five people were originally arrested at this home here in Elgin and that two of them have since been released because they are U.S. citizens. And speaking with that gentleman, he told me it was a incredibly scary morning to be arrested by the immigration and custom enforcement action here on this block in Elgin. He said they were asked if they were U.S. citizens at one point. And he and his colleague, because they were on their way to work, were able to produce their licenses and be released back into the town where they work, where he recently just spoke to us a few moments ago.

10:39So now as for the other three people that he says are still in custody by immigration and customs enforcement, the reason for their detention is not officially known. Before the sun had risen, neighbors say federal agents were on the ground. This helicopter in the sky. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem there alongside an immigration enforcement raid. In a post on X, she says, quote, I was on the ground in Chicago today to make clear we are not backing down. You can see her at the end of this video she posted. Sources tell CBS News Chicago she left Illinois shortly after. Was that necessary for this kind of standard little neighborhood?

11:21Neighbor Nick Hurst drove over confused about what was going on. Are people just going to be afraid to be detained just to go to school? Nonprofit immigrant rights organization Casa DuPage responded as soon as they heard. We go out and patrol our communities starting as early as 4 o 'clock in the morning. They say they could not reach the family that lives here before those people were taken into federal custody. I see the door broken and I hear them screaming in Spanish, telling them to get out, otherwise they're going to come in with deadly force, things like that. And then I see them come out one by one.

11:52Later, Illinois State Senator Christina Castro canvassed her district herself with strong words for Secretary Noem after she says her community is afraid and angry with the ongoing operation Midway Blitz. She can go to hell. Don't come to my community.

12:11now dhs secretary christy noem had mentioned on x that they were still going after some of the most violent offenders referencing people being taken into custody today accused of dui felony stalking but again it is not clear if anyone that is still in custody is convicted of any of those crimes we did reach out to dhs for more specifics on that and they did not give those details to us We are also hearing that these types of actions are expected to continue for at least a few more weeks, and we'll keep you posted as soon as we learn more on that. For now, we're live in Elgin. Sabrina Franza, CBS News, Chicago.

14:35Ben Meiselas:Now, I want to show you this right here because these Chicago state senators don't play around. Chicago state Senator Karina Villa chases ice out of her district. This is my city. Take your masks off. She said that more than 15 people already had been taken away in unmarked cars by masked agents. These masked individuals came upon my people, people with the color of my skin, and pick them up, State Senator Karina Villa says. She then looked into the camera and asked for help. If you are an ally, come out and stand with us. Take pictures, record, and get the license plates. State Senator Karina Villa currently represents West Chicago.

15:20Ben Meiselas:She recently announced her statewide campaign for Illinois Comptroller. Here play this clip. Stay in your cars.

15:36Don't open your doors. This is my city. This is my city. That's right. Take off your mask. Take off your mask. What?

15:52On the side of your houses, everyone. Do not come out. Stay in your houses. Stay in your house. You want all rights? Don't leave us if there's an order signed by a judge. Tell the neighbors. All who have documents and papers will help. Please, they're all in West Chicago right now. Go ahead, please.

16:26and I have seen them masked people, masked individuals. We don't know who they are. We are making sure that the community knows their rights. Stay inside of your house. Do not answer the door unless there is a warrant. If you are an ally, come out with a camera, take pictures, record, get the license plates, make sure that the kids are safe because right now our kids are going to school. The buses are coming down. I talked to some parents who are on their way to take their kids to school and they are afraid, but not here. We need all of our allies to come out and to stand with us. As you can see, there are cars right behind me.

17:03License plates, North Dakota. They've got their face masks on. I want all of you to remember that we are in West Chicago. We are in Illinois. We still have rights here. Call my office. Call the 1-800 number for ICE. I will get that to you before the end of this recording. I will do this in Spanish now. Hola a todos. Estoy aquí in West Chicago, in the corner of Forest and the 59? How are you seeing? Not in my city. Not in my city. Not in my city.

17:38I'm sorry, guys. I'm sorry. Please delete that. If you have kids watching, I apologize.

17:47They're over here. They're over here.

17:48Ben Meiselas:Now, one of the things that we're seeing as well is that the fear of ice raids are now causing some cities to cancel Hispanic Heritage Month celebrations. Mexican Independence Day here. Play this clip. This Hispanic Heritage Month, several cities across the country canceling celebrations in fear of ice raids. The participants, those who were going to be cooking the food and performing just didn't feel comfortable coming. Outside of Boston, the city of Everett canceling this year's Fiesta del Rio, originally scheduled for September 20th, saying in a statement, quote, with the recent ice raids in our region, many of our friends and neighbors are feeling fear and uncertainty.

18:28Events also called off in other cities, including Long Beach, California, Indianapolis and Seattle, Washington. But in Chicago, the Mexican Independence Day parade, an annual tradition dating back more than 50 years, marching on. We are not intimidated. We are united and we will resist anyone who seeks to silence us and drag us into the shadows. Organizers working with Chicago police and private security to keep crowds safe while deploying civil rights groups in case of ICE arrests. We have rapid response teams on site. We have over 25 immigration attorneys on site. So we're ready to face whatever comes our way.

19:09All power to the people. It comes after weeks of protests and Friday's fatal shooting of Silveo Villegas Gonzalez, who DHS says was an undocumented immigrant. The agency saying an ICE officer shot and killed the 38-year-old after he fled a traffic stop, dragging the officer with his car. This weekend, ICE saying they arrested a suspected MS-13 gang member also in the Chicago area. ice trumpeting the president's so-called Operation Midway Blitz. We have to make sure that we're protecting all the United States. While the crackdown has put some communities on edge, others say they will continue to celebrate loudly and proudly.

19:51We are who we are. We're brown and proud and we have to celebrate it. Back out of your live to answer a question we've been getting a lot. our team on the ground at yesterday's parade in Chicago saw zero signs of ICE or DHS officers. We did reach out to both agencies after the event to ask if they were in the area or if any arrests were made, especially at that event. Both agencies not answering those questions at this time. We'll point out ICE in response. Morgan sent us a news release about past arrests in the Chicago area. That release was dated September 10th. So that was their response to that.

20:27Ben Meiselas:Share this with you as well. Federal agents raiding a Long Beach car wash. Let's play it. Federal agents arrested several people while raiding yet another car wash, this time in Long Beach. Their swift action surprised and stunned workers and customers at Bixby Knowles Car Wash. KTLA's Rachel Menatoff joins us live from there with a story. Hi, Rachel. Hi, Corrine. Hi, Rick. This latest raid taking place a couple of days after the Supreme Court ruled that immigration authorities can resume roving patrols in Los Angeles and several other California counties. Now, the general manager here at Bixby Knowles tells us that seven of his employees were detained here on Saturday, four of whom actually have documentation granting their legal status.

21:11We talked to a couple of witnesses who captured the operation on camera and shared with us some of their concerns about it. The first thing I saw was a woman being chased, an older woman, and then they just started tackling people. And I've never been this traumatized. I chose to speak out today because yesterday I felt helpless. Anything I did would be either end up being detained or arrested or potentially losing my life. So speaking today is a voice for so many folks here that are not criminals that are here to work and are just stuck between a loophole system that hasn't been figured out. and here's their cell phone video according to the witnesses a woman fainted during the surprise immigration operation and he is heard calling out asking the federal officers to get her medical attention homeland security has promised to once again ramp up immigration enforcement and according to the high court it has grounds to do so based on a person's race ethnicity and his or her spoken language.

22:13According to statistics from NBC News, 58 ,000 undocumented immigrants have been taken into custody since the president took office in January. An immigration attorney says since the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Trump administration, the next step is for a federal district court judge to make a more final ruling in the next week or so. But until that time, she says it's important to carry documentation with you at all times. Here is her counsel for those without documentation. My advice as an immigration attorney is don't put yourself out there in situations where you could be profiled and you could be detained.
