JB Pritzker, the billionaire left-wing governor of Illinois, has been caught pushing a fake story about ICE agents being denied entry by a Chicago school during a deportation raid, a story that never happened.
On Friday, the lying Pritzker took to say, “After a week of Republicans sowing fear and chaos, the first reports of raids in Chicago are at an elementary school. Targeting children and separating families is cruel and un-American.”
He then linked to a story at education blog ChalkBeat.

But this claim never happened. No ICE agents visited any Chicago school.
What actually occurred is that a member of the Secret Service had visited the school looking for a suspect who reportedly posted threats to the president.
The school, though, denied access to the Secret Service.
Chicago Public Schools falsely claimed they blocked ICE officers from entering a school today. The narrative took off – but apparently nobody bothered to check with DHS or ICE, which both denied the claim that ICE was at/near a school.
Turns out – it was Secret Service agents. pic.twitter.com/shZX9857rE

Pritzer ad his lying leftists are doing their level best to find anything, even lies, to attack Trump.
