ICE is coming to Columbus

Title-Federal law enforcement looking to open new offices in Columbus and 19 other U.S. cities


source-https://www.dispatch.com/story/news/politics/government/2025/10/08/trump-federal-law-enforcement-ice-office-columbus-ohio/86583509007/


snip-"The federal government is looking to expand its federal law enforcement presence in 20 U.S. cities, including Columbus."


snip-"This comes as President Donald Trump broadly takes aim at Democrat-led cities, calling them unsafe, and has ordered the deployment of National Guard troops as law enforcement in major cities like Washington, Portland, Oregon and Chicago.



snip-:The full list comprises: Birmingham, Alabama; Charleston and Columbia, South Carolina; Columbus, Ohio; Des Moines, Iowa; Grand Rapids, Michigan; Louisville, Kentucky, Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Raleigh, North Carolina; Richmond, Virginia; St. Louis, Missouri; and six cities in Florida: Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, Sunrise, Jacksonville, Fort Myers and Naples.


More there.


For the record, my cong district Ohio 3rd is most, but not all of Columbus.

The district is navy blue.
