@Cliff-Mashburn saidSo eager to roll out the Brownshirts?
She thought they were ICE. They were actually searching for someone that had made threats against an unnamed public official.
The agents should have arrested her for obstruction and continued their investigation.

@Mott-The-Hoople saidAnd the Chicago Public School system has protocols in place to deal with it.
no, they dont
"President Trump’s administration has authorized U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to carry out arrests in schools and churches, rescinding a guideline that prevented arrests in so-called “sensitive” areas.
The directive was issued by acting Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Benjamine Huffman on Monday, but announced in a ...[text shortened]... statement."

These protocols protect kids.
What's next? The US military coming in and rousting kids?
That'll go over like a lead balloon.
@Mott-The-Hoople saidOh, look at Mr. Irony.
Oh I forgot…you libs can pretend and make anything true
@no1marauder saidMan, you are thick.
They are authorized to make arrests, not to gain entry just to question someone.
You guys don't even understand your own links.
I've spent 30 years as a teacher in a variety of public schools.
If ANY law enforcement officers show up needing to talk to a student because they have been making threats, then that is the end of the story. It's not up to the principal to say no. This ain't 15th century France where people can claim sanctuary in a church or whatever.
If the student ended up shooting someone later you'd be the first to criticize cops for not doing their job.
@Suzianne saidHow is refusing to let law enforcement question a student that has been making threats protecting the students?

Please explain, I'm curious what kind of mental gymnastics you are going to go through to justify it.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidActually, it is up to the principal, depending on the school district rules, to decide who to let in a school building absent a legal warrant.
Man, you are thick.

The Chicago Public Schools backed the principal's decision, saying it conformed to district rules and the agents quietly left as they were legally required to do once permission to enter the building was denied:
"Regardless of which branch of Homeland Security visited this school, officials followed the established protocols to ensure student safety. The agents were not allowed into the school or permitted to speak with staff or students. Hamline administrators also worked with CPS' Law Department and CPS' Office of Safety and Security. The situation was handled with the federal agents leaving the campus without entry."

@Cliff-Mashburn saidGot it. A directive from the Fuehrer. Still not the law.
For a lawyer you sure are wrong a lot.

@Cliff-Mashburn I feel sorry for your students. Let me guess. You taught……physical education, right?
@Mott-The-Hoople saidAnd you cons (get it, cons, like in need of pardons) are what? Perfect? Easily led?
Oh I forgot…you libs can pretend and make anything true
@Mott-The-Hoople saidWell, he clearly left enough for the Fuehrer to pardon the traitors.
Biden used up all the pardons for his family
@Cliff-Mashburn saidThe Secret Service wasn't there to "protect students". Neither will ICE be.
So....Schools need to protect students from the police by not allowing them on school property?
Will you people just listen to the nonsense you are spouting?
The sick mindset of the left is beyond belief.
@no1marauder saidThey were there to question someone that had been making online threats, sure sounds like they were trying to protect the students.
The Secret Service wasn't there to "protect students". Neither will ICE be.
It was the principal that wasn't.

@Cliff-Mashburn saidOnline threats bitching about the TikTok ban; those were directed at someone who the Secret Service is protecting:

A spokesperson for the Secret Service said the agency "was investigating a threat to one of our protectees in reference to the recent TikTok ban."
"On Friday special agents from the United States Secret Service Chicago Field Office were investigating a threat made against a government official we protect," Anthony Guglielmi told NBC Chicago. "In the course of their investigation, agents first visited a residence in a local neighborhood and then made a visit to Hamline Elementary School. Agents identified themselves to the school principal and provided business cards with their contact information. The agents left without incident."

So some kid bitching on social media about a national issue; nothing that requires an immediate entry into a school. The principal followed district policy as advised by its internal security and legal teams and the SS left quietly with ample opportunity to question the individual after school hours.
Maybe you should get some facts before spouting off.
