All it took was having state, county, and local authorities work with federal authorities
Trump administration to withdraw 700 immigration agents from Minnesota
The Trump administration will withdraw 700 federal immigration agents from Minnesota, border czar Tom Homan said Wednesday. The move comes weeks after agents killed two U.S. citizens, sparking protests across the country.
“My goal, with the support of President Trump, is to achieve a complete drawdown and end this surge, as soon as we can,” Homan said at a news conference.
He reiterated that immigration efforts would continue and that agents would not solely target undocumented criminals.
“If you’re in the country illegally, you are not off the table,” Homan said. “Let me be clear, President Trump fully intends to achieve mass deportations during this administration, and immigration enforcement actions will continue every day throughout this country.”
Well, really, the operation wasn’t going to continue forever. They picked up a buttload of illegals (around 4,000), put fear in the rest, and move on to another city. No point in keeping 3,000 federal officers in Minneapolis and the surrounding areas.
Homan said that the drawdown is partly a result of cooperation between Minnesota county jails and federal immigration officials, making it easier for immigration authorities to apprehend targets. Homan asked for such cooperation from state and local authorities over the last week.
“This is smarter enforcement, not less enforcement,” he said, adding that local authorities will not be conducting immigration enforcement.
When an illegal is busted just contact ICE. When ICE puts a detainer on an illegal give them up. It’s that simple. They were arrested for a reason.
Meanwhile, the irony
Slower please…
I’ll believe it when I see it.
