ABC New Releases Back To School Report

There it is again—the media’s favorite sleight of hand: a sob story in place of a fact pattern, emotion instead of law. NBC News kicked it off with a piece about illegal immigrant day laborers “struggling” to earn a living under the looming threat of deportation. ABC News followed suit, leaning into back-to-school season with a tear-jerker about undocumented parents afraid to send their kids to class.

The narrative is familiar by now. The script practically writes itself: paint illegal immigrants as helpless victims of a cruel, unforgiving system, all while subtly casting federal immigration enforcement as the villain. The nuance? Absent. The legality? Glossed over. The responsibility? Punted.

Many of the nation’s school districts are returning to the classroom with immigrant families fearful of the Trump administration’s targeting of undocumented migrants, according to educators, experts and parents who spoke to ABC News. https://t.co/0kjJzO9wz4

ABC’s latest angle tells us that immigrant families are afraid of ICE raids as schools reopen in major urban districts like Los Angeles and Chicago. Educators and experts are quoted, warnings are issued, and school districts like Chicago Public Schools proudly declare they’ll block federal immigration officers unless those officers produce a criminal warrant signed by a judge.

But here’s the thing: this isn’t a civil rights issue. It’s not a feel-good drama about inclusion. This is about the enforcement of federal law—and the deliberate refusal by local institutions to cooperate with that enforcement.

Migrants implies they are transitory. These are aliens by the legal definition. And they are here in violation of law, not simply without documents as “undocumented” implies. As such they are illegal aliens. Actually reading Title 8 would help.

Chicago’s move to prohibit ICE access without a warrant may score points with progressive activists, but it also creates a dangerous precedent: school districts taking it upon themselves to determine which federal laws they will and won’t respect. That’s not a policy stance. That’s defiance.

And the media? They’re not covering that aspect. They’re not asking hard questions. Instead, they’re offering the public a curated stream of emotional appeals—stories designed not to inform, but to soften. To blur the line between legal and illegal. Between citizen and non-citizen. Between responsibility and victimhood.

What about this “undocumented migrant” @ABC? Planning to cover this? pic.twitter.com/5h0iz79ep5

There’s a simple solution to the problem of fear surrounding immigration enforcement: don’t break immigration law. If you’re in the country legally, you have nothing to fear. If you’re not, then that’s not on ICE, and it’s not on Trump. It’s on the individual who violated the law.

This isn’t heartless. It’s honest. Immigration law exists to maintain the integrity of a sovereign nation’s borders and institutions. Selective enforcement, media manipulation, and school districts playing political defense don’t change the fact that laws were broken—and continue to be broken.
