An adviser to President Trump is sending a "warning" to the NFL ahead of Super Bowl 60 in Santa Clara, California.
-snip-
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will attend the 2026 Super Bowl, according to Corey Lewandowski, an adviser at the Department of Homeland Security.
There is nowhere that you can provide safe haven to people in this country illegally. Not the Super Bowl and nowhere else, Lewandowski said Wednesday on The Benny Show.
We will find you. We will apprehend you. We will put you in a detention facility, and we will deport you. So know that that is a very real situation under this administration, which is completely contrary to what how it used to be."

Someone needs to womp womp womp him upside the head and knock some sense into him.
Go ahead and conduct a raid during the Super Bowl. You think Trump's approval rating is low now.

a super loud-toxic message of Authoritarian Police-State to a
GARGANTUAN audience!!

Also fuck that traitor Benny Johnson. He belongs in prison, not the White House press corps!

(12,271 posts)Are they going to arrest the stadium workers that clean the restrooms, cook the food, remove the trash, and maintain the grounds? Because I can guarantee you that no undocumented person will be in the stands.
