ICE conducts immigration raid in Puerto Rico targeting Dominican community
San Juan, Puerto Rico.- U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) carried out its first immigration raid in Puerto Rico under President Donald Trump’s administration. The operation occurred in Barrio Obrero, San Juan, a key area for the Dominican community on the island, a U.S. territory.
ICE stated that the raid was part of enforcing the Executive Order Protecting the American People from Invasion, signed on January 20, 2025. According to the agency, its role is to identify and detain individuals deemed a threat to national security, ensuring the order’s objectives are met.
Although the number of arrests in Puerto Rico has not been disclosed, ICE recently reported detaining 538 undocumented immigrants and deporting hundreds during similar operations. President Trump has vowed to execute the largest deportation campaign in U.S. history, with Puerto Rico often serving as an entry point for migrants crossing the Mona Passage from the Dominican Republic and Haiti.

Nelson, PLEASE educate yourself Puerto Rico is US territory. Puerto Rican’s are born US citizens. I would know because my husband is Puerto Rican
Keep your eye on it. If it’s not written to include the territories your husband and many others lose their citizenship
Bring it on baby….you so call Americans will lose half of your military; since, they are Puerto Ricans…. lol đ
you wish papa! jealous a little??? lol
I’m Dominican and you can’t be pro Hatian deportation but against Dominicans being deported from PR for being illegal. Trump is doing the right thing and all nations should follow. Follow the process.
Yep, How can it be fair for Haitians to be treated inhumanely in cages, but the illegal Dominicans that are being deported back to their homeland….that’s a problem all of a sudden??????
Facts
It’s about time. Puerto-Ricans are tired of those dominicans sneaking into their island and trying to pass as Puerto-Ricans.
stfu – You’re not Puerto Rican and have no clue wtf you’re talking about
What is wrong with Puerto Rican, do they think that Trump or his associates think they have any value, remember Madison Square Garden? and Hurricane Maria, don’t be so Stupid.
Hopefully when they put them in the trucks, they go back into their houses and steal all their belongings and food and appliances and furniture. Just like immigration in th DR. Then when they see how upset the illegals are. They can just tase them and laugh, slapping each on their backs. . While loading up that new stove, or the handful cash or jewelry. Maybe take the clothes that fit their girlfriends and pretend it’s a defenceless immigrant you’re banging
When they apprehend those illegal$ and put them in the truck, it must be awe$ome. Do they take there phone$ and hold them at the collection center$ until their friend$ and familie$ come to pay the bribe$ to the center$ commandante and then just release them. or do the police phone ahead to thier family member$ who smuggle people and give them a head$ up, so they cant get their cut $$$$$. Like in the Dominican Republic?
