No more flying under the radar! Yesterday, Tuesday, November 18. 2025 The Daily Wire ran this headline, “Here’s Why The Feds Are Targeting Charlotte With Immigration Raids.”
Federal immigration authorities have descended upon their next target for mass deportation raids: Charlotte, North Carolina, a city the Trump administration says has been operating as a sanctuary for illegal immigrants.
While Charlotte isn’t a well-known sanctuary like New York or Los Angeles, the Trump administration laments that its leaders have failed to hand over hundreds of illegal immigrant criminals to ICE.
The Department of Homeland Security said there’s roughly 1,400 illegal immigrant criminals sitting in Charlotte’s jails that local authorities are refusing to turn over to federal authorities.
“North Carolina sanctuary politicians are protecting the nearly 1,400 criminal illegal aliens in Charlotte’s jails by REFUSING to turn them over to ICE, ultimately releasing these monsters into North Carolina’s neighborhoods,” DHS wrote on X Monday.
In March, ICE arrested six illegal immigrant criminals who had been released by the Mecklenburg Sheriff’s Office, which ignored federal detainers, according to the agency.
After the operation, there were still 18 other targets “at large who also had detainers that were not honored,” ICE said at the time, adding that they’ve “been unable to locate those individuals, and they remain at large and pose a potential danger to the community.”
“Many American citizens may not realize the danger they’re in.” said Thomas Robb, National Director of the Knights Party of the Ku Klux Klan, centrally based in Harrison, Arkansas with members throughout America and beyond. “Some people only think of these illegals hiding out in bigger sanctuary cities, but the reality is they are everywhere. The Pew Research Center in 2021 estimated 10.5 million illegals in our country, and that jumped to 14 million in 2023. That is enough illegals to fill the State of Pennsylvania! These illegals aren’t just in border States anymore. Biden had them bussed and flown to the interior of the United States for the sole purpose of gaining votes. Of course that backfired on the Democrats when Trump was elected. Now President Trump is doing his best to rid even the more rural areas and cities of these invaders. We see the numbers being caught, but it isn’t time to celebrate yet because there are many more that need to be deported. In my opinion, the people that want to protect these invaders ought to be deported right with them.”
