“U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Florida law enforcement agencies announced over the weekend that they [abducted nearly 800 victims] in a multiday immigration enforcement operation. ICE touted ‘Operation Tidal Wave’ as a ‘highly successful operation,’ pointing to a unique partnership between local and federal authorities. … The operation leans on ICE’s 287(g) program, which enables ICE to deputize local law enforcement agencies to help enforce federal immigration law [sic]. ICE, in its post on X, encouraged other local law enforcement to consider partnering with the agency in the future.” (04/27/25)
