Report: ICE plans MAJOR gang crackdown with nationwide raids - Conservative Review

A new study by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) finds that under Trumps immigration orders, attorneys with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) are no longer asking for prosecutorial discretion when it comes to deporting illegal aliens.

Prosecutorial discretion disclosures have been used to enact lax immigration decisions where only illegal aliens who have committed violent crimes are prioritized for deportation. Likewise, deferment of deportation for illegal aliens was a common practice during the Obama Administration.

In the first five months of the Trump presidency, there have been less than 100 illegal aliens per month being given prosecutorial discretion disclosures, according to the study. This is a sharp decline from the same first five months of 2016, under Obama, when 2,400 illegal aliens per month were given discretion.

As the latest court data demonstrate under President Trump discretion to defer deporting individuals irrespective of their circumstances has largely been abolished, the TRAC report states.

At the same time, Attorney General Jeff Sessions adding immigration judges and sending many to regions near the U.S.-Mexico Border, where the most border-crossing occurs, has contributed to a rising deportation rate.

In Trumps first five months in office, 8,996 illegal aliens per month were given deportation orders. In that same time frame in 2016, only 6,913 illegal aliens every month were given deportation orders.

The number has fluctuated under Trump. For instance, in March, more than 10,000 illegal aliens were set to be deported out of the U.S. Three months later, the number of illegal aliens being given deportation orders dropped to more than 8,900.

Trump 'Abolished' Obama-era Deportation Postponement for Illegal Aliens, Says Report - Breitbart News

Federal agents announced Friday that they had recently arrested123 illegal immigrantsin Texas.

The illegal immigrants were arrested in an eight-day operation that ended Wednesday, KAGS reports.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) also claim that all of those arrested had previous criminal convictions. They were from Mexico, Honduras, and Guatemala.

Summaries of some of the criminal aliens arrested shows that one individual was previously convicted of two counts of lewd act on a child and one count of impregnating a minor; he was twice deported, and was convicted for illegal re-entry after deportation, FOX29 reports.

Others arrested had previously run afoul with the law for possession of heroin and other controlled substances. Some had been previously deported but re-entered the country several times.

Daniel Bible,field office director of ERO San Antonio, reportedly said, Public safety remains a top priory for ICE. This was a focused eight-day enforcement operation over a large area, but we routinely conduct operations daily.

This news comes as aHouse bill included $1.57 billion in funding for border protection, enough to make some progress, but not enough to build the entire border wall.

Feds Arrest 123 Illegal Immigrants With Criminal Records, Including Child Predators - The Daily Caller

TheNational Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd told C-SPAN on Monday that illegal immigration has seen a stark drop thanks to President Donald Trumps border enforcement policies.

Appearing with C-SPANs Washington Journal hostPedro Echevarria, Judd called the drop in attempted illegal immigration miraculous, and pointed to Trumps rhetoric as one of the reasons illegal border crossings have gone down.

What weve seen is nothing short of miraculous, Juddsaid. If you look at the rhetoric that President Trump has given, its caused the number of illegal border crossers to go down, something that weve never seen in history at the Border Patrol.

Weve never seen such a drop that we currently have, Judd added.

According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, June 2017 sawa 53 percent decrease in illegal immigration from June 2016 along the southwestern border. Overall totals for illegal immigration for 2017 werereported down 19 percent.

Judd said that Trumps enforcement of border laws deserves most of the credit for the drop.

Weve got a set of laws on the books that say If you cross the border illegally, or if you commit this crime, these are the consequences that have been established, Judd said. And the Trump administration said that we are going to follow through on those consequences, something we didnt see in the last four years in the last administration.

Judd comparedillegal immigration in 2014 under former President Barack Obamas administration. Judd noted that during that time, illegal immigrants would purposely give themselves up to law enforcement, knowing they would be released with a court date. According to Judd, 80 percent of those released never returned.

When you hear the Obama administration say we have to bring these people out of the shadows, what they were doing was actually going into the shadows instead of coming out, Judd said.

Judd compared that to the Trump administrations approach, saying that those who cross illegally are held until their court date, and given a chance to showcase why the individual should be allowed to stay in the country.

Judd said that the Obama administration skipped that point, and let individuals go in the hopes they would show up to their court date.

Last month, the figures released byU.S. Customs and Border Protection for the month of May were just as impressive. May 2017 saw 76,000 captured or deemed inadmissible at the border, compared to 188,000 in May of 2016. This marked a 59 percent decrease in illegal immigration in just a year.

Former Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson on Thursday credited President Trump with sharply reducing illegal immigration through the southwestern U.S. border just through the power of his tough talk against illegal migrants.

"Illegal migration on our southern border has gone down since this president has been in office, basically because, through his rhetoric, he scared off a lot of women and children in Central America who'd rather stay in their desperate circumstances, or just migrate to Mexico and stop there," Johnson said.

While working for former President Barack Obama, Johnson and other officials worked for years to reduce illegal immigration after the 2014 border crisis that saw thousands of unaccompanied children try to enter the country. Illegal immigration fell in 2015 after the Obama administration worked closely with Central American countries in an effort to get their help in reducing the flow of people, but it rose again in 2016, Obama's last full year in office.

Under Trump, the flow of illegal immigrants fell immediately, which most chalked up to Trump's tougher policy position on immigration, which included new direction to DHS that said agents need to look to deport anyone who enters illegally.

Johnson said under Obama, officials looked to deport only the most dangerous immigrants. But Johnson said he believes Obama's policy was "humane," and said he hoped the Trump administration would approach the problem the same way.

"I believe that we have to enforce our immigration laws consistent with our values and consistent with humanity," he said.

"At the end of the day, when you enforce immigration laws, you have to be able to look at yourself in the mirror, look your own family in the eye, recall the women and children who are desperate, to say, 'I did my best to enforce the law consistent with our priorities and consistent with our values,'" he said. "I hope that the current administration does not lose sight of that."
