One night in September 2025, more than 300 federal agents – including ICE and the FBI – raided an apartment complex in the south side of Chicago in a massive militarized operation. The government claims they were after members of the Venezuelan “Tren de Aragua” gang. They entered homes at gunpoint and zip-tied residents, including US citizens. The residents claim they never showed warrants. In this episode, Maria Hinojosa heads to the South Shore neighborhood in Chicago to ask: how can victims affected by a massive militarized raid pursue accountability from the federal government?
