When he arrived to pick it up four hours later, the employees said they refused to print it, calling the poster “propaganda.”

Thank you @DHSgov & @Sec_Noem for keeping Michigan safe!
On October 16, @ICEgov and our partners in the Indiana State Police, arrested Ahmed Nenni, an illegal alien from Mauritania. The illegal had a commercial drivers license issued by the state of Michigan and said he is employed by Zain Express, a trucking company in Dearborn.
He illegally entered the US on September 15, 2023, in San Diego and was RELEASED by the Biden administration. He remains in ICE custody at the Joe Corley Processing Center in Conroe, Texas, pending immigration proceedings.
Thanks to President Trump and Secretary Noem, Operation Midway Blitz has resulted in ICE’s arrest of more than 140 illegal alien truck drivers in Indiana. The brave men and women of ICE and the Indiana State Police are working nonstop to get illegal aliens out of our communities and off our roads.
