It’s not satire. It’s Illinois.
An illegal immigrant — yes, illegal — not only managed to stay in the U.S. for a decade after overstaying a visa, but also got himself a badge, a gun, a six-figure salary, and a police pension… all while working as a sworn law enforcement officer. In a state run by Democrats, of course. Because if you thought it couldn’t get more dystopian — hold onto your irony meters, they’re about to explode.
Radule Bojovic, a Montenegrin national who was supposed to leave the U.S. in 2015, was arrested this week by federal immigration agents after they discovered he’d been patrolling the streets of Hanover Park, Illinois, in full uniform. Let that sink in. The guy was literally enforcing U.S. law while actively breaking it. And for nearly 10 years? Crickets from the state.

But here’s the kicker: not only was he armed — something that’s a felony for illegal immigrants under federal law — but he was raking in over $200,000 a year in salary and benefits. Oh, and the Pension Fund Board approved him for retirement perks, too. Because apparently, in Illinois, citizenship is optional, but the paychecks are mandatory.
Now, pause for a second and imagine the inverse. A U.S. citizen overstays a visa in Montenegro, gets hired as a cop, carries a weapon illegally, and takes home a six-figure salary. Would the government look the other way? Would leftist media brush it off as a “technical oversight”? Of course not. But in Pritzker’s Illinois? Anything goes.
And if you think this is just some rogue hiring mistake, Homeland Security isn’t buying it. They pointed the finger directly at Governor J.B. Pritzker, who’s been busy turning the entire state into a sanctuary playground for the illegal population. According to DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, this wasn’t just negligence — it was complicity. “Governor J.B. Pritzker doesn’t just allow violent illegal aliens to terrorize Illinois’s communities,” she said, “he allows illegal aliens to work as sworn police officers.”
You really can’t make this up. A man in the country illegally, prohibited from even owning a gun, was given one by the government… to enforce the law. And somehow, we’re supposed to believe this is compassionate governance?
Let’s be clear — this is not about immigration policy. It’s about lawlessness. It’s about how far the Left is willing to go to blur the lines between citizen and non-citizen, legal and illegal, right and wrong. And they’re not stopping. Bojovic is just one case. The iceberg is bigger.
Now, with the Trump administration launching its “Operation Midway Blitz” to root out illegal aliens from the state, anti-ICE protestors are already gearing up for battle. And no, not metaphorically. These activists have been trying to block ICE operations, violently attack federal agents, and even target officers directly. It’s not protest. It’s anarchy.

In response, President Trump tried to send federal troops to stabilize the area. What happened next? Illinois sued him. A judge paused the deployment. And just like that, protecting American citizens was halted — because the state’s priority is apparently shielding illegal ones.
And while the legal wrangling continues, the message is already loud and clear:
In Illinois, if you’re here illegally and you want a government job, a pension, a firearm, and the authority to arrest taxpaying citizens?
You just might be overqualified.
