Appeals Court Halts Daily Chicago Check-Ins for Border Chief

The Seventh U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals halted a controversial order requiring Greg Bovino, leader of Operation Midway Blitz, to daily report to a federal judge about his immigration enforcement activities in Chicago. The order was imposed due to concerns over excessive force used by Bovino's team, including tear gas during protests. The Department of Justice argued that the daily reporting would disrupt their work. The court asked plaintiffs, mostly local media groups, to file a brief by Thursday. A bomb threat at the Dirksen U.S. Courthouse in Chicago added to the day's tension, but no direct connection to the legal fight was established. The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story.
