it comes to capturing criminal illegal immigrants, he is doing a great job. This raid consisted operating over a couple of days in La La Land.

Mostly Mexican nationals, but a couple of Russians and even a Cambodian.

But they let the Russians go, right? I mean, Trump works for them......

The crackdown, which ended Wednesday and was spearheaded by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), focused on people with prior criminal offenses including for drug trafficking, rape and domestic violence, authorities said.

"Operations like this are emblematic of the vital work ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) officers do every day, seeking to locate, arrest, and ultimately deport at-large convicted criminals and other immigration fugitives who pose a threat to public safety," David Marin, the ERO director in Los Angeles, said in a statement.
"By taking these individuals off the streets and removing them from the country, we’re making our communities safer for everyone," he added.

The raids took place amid a surge in such operations since President Donald Trump took office in January vowing to deport as many as three million undocumented immigrants with criminal records.
A similar large-scale crackdown in February in at least half a dozen states netted hundreds of undocumented immigrants including some without criminal records, prompting an uproar among rights groups.
Authorities said the latest crackdown led to the arrest of a 29-year-old Salvadoran national convicted of rape in California and a previously deported 51-year-old Mexican man who had been convicted of cocaine trafficking.

More than two dozen of those arrested also had been convicted of domestic violence and driving under the influence.
The suspects -- 177 men and 11 women -- included nationals from 11 countries.
The majority -- 146 -- are from Mexico while two are from Russia and one from Cambodia.
Most of the arrests took place in the Los Angeles area.

According to federal authorities, more than 41,000 people have been arrested by ICE since Trump signed an executive order in January strengthening immigration enforcement policies.

The number represents a 40 percent increase over the same period in 2016.

I love the last sentence!



"The number represents a 40 percent increase over the same period in 2016."

If they've already been deported shoot them if they return

If they're here illegally, they are already criminals.

Now, Zib, you know we cannot do that. That is totally out of all bounds.

I know. Wishful thinking. Maybe they'll keep on going north to the Canadian sanctuaries.

One year in Canada is enough to send them back to south of the border in the U.S.

Besides kicking the UN out of the US, we need to stop that NATO bs and bring our troops home to protect our borders.

I would have no problem decreasing the size of our military and increasing the size of our border patrol. Military personnel are not trained for border control.

seeking to locate, arrest, and ultimately deport at-large convicted criminals

Why do they have to be "seeking to locate and arrest" "convicted criminals"? Who's bright idea was it to let them go after their sentence was served in the first place?

An illegal that was convicted of another crime should serve his/her sentence and upon release from the sentence, should then be given straight to ICE. They should never set foot on "free soil" until they get home (whatever country that is).

Just stop all immigration period and get the visa people out if they've overstayed. Anyone coming in for a visit ? Check them out then decide. Easy enough to just say "no."

In the three months after Trump took office, agents in the L.A. field office made 2,273 arrests — marking little change from the 2,166 arrests during the same period last year and a decline from the 2,719 arrests in 2015, according to ICE figures.

Why select just LA?  Overall the arrests are up...deportation is not because of the backlog of immigration courts, something that needs to be fixed.

And it also appears that a tough stance on illegals has caused less illegal entry into the US....even better!
