The small town, where 91 percent of voters supported Trump in 2024, was unprepared for the aggressive operation, which included flash-bang grenades, military-style helicopters, and zip-tied teenagers. Deportations have already begun, and the community is now on edge, with residents and school officials describing widespread confusion and a sense that life in Wilder may never be the same.
