‘LOCK HER UP! New York
Letitia James Under Fire After ICE Portal Announcement
New York Attorney General Letitia James faced backlash after urging residents to upload “photos and videos of ICE officers”
to a new portal reviewing “federal immigration enforcement in New York.”
Her post followed an ICE raid on Canal Street that arrested nine undocumented individuals with criminal records.
Democratic Efforts to Track ICE
The move came days after Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) announced plans for a “master ICE tracker”
to monitor federal agents’ activities. Critics called it a potential “hit list.”
Legal and Political Reactions
James said, “Every New Yorker has the right to live without fear or intimidation.”
Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) claimed ICE agents
“wrongly detained four U.S. citizens,” calling the operation “lawless terror.”
James Faces Separate Indictment
Amid the controversy, James was indicted in Virginia for
alleged mortgage fraud tied to a 2020 property purchase,
accused of saving “approximately $18,933” through false statements.
