President Donald Trump’s deputies have yet to stop the Department of Homeland Security from printing more of President Obama’s work permits for younger illegals who claim they were brought into the United States when they were younger than 16. This inaction is in violation of one of Trump’s most prominent campaign promises, and it also gives away bargaining power that Trump needs to make the GOP-led Congress implement his popular campaign promises on immigration reform, warns Mark Krikorian, head of the Center for Immigration Studies.
“It is an explicit betrayal of a promise he made — Point number five in his Phoenix speech” on immigration policy, Krikorian told Breitbart News. “That is a red line they have crossed less than three days into their administration.”

I, my entire family and most of my friends voted for President Trump solely, and I mean solely because of illegal immigration. I am originally from Southern California and was forced to move because in just a few years, I watched my beloved state with its beautiful weather become Mexico.
I was promised by campaigning Donald Trump that they would be removed so fast my head would spin. My head is not spinning. I love the guy. I think he's better than sliced bread and I have a bounce in my step because he is in the White House. He is an honest man and I'm giving him every opportunity. I want this head spinning. I want to see busses loaded up and heading south. I want to see crying businessmen as their workers are packed into trains. You can't make America Great with them here. He's got to get moving. No Dreamers, no exceptions, I don't even care if I see sobbing Mexican children on tv.
He’s been there for one day. ONE WHOLE WORKING DAY!
I swear our side can be as obnoxious as the left. Just looking for something to complain about.
I’m with you. I left Kali 25 years ago in part because of the Mexification of the place.
Yeah, I don’t care either about illegal children brought here by their illegal parents. The children’s bitch is with their parents. The parents should be prosecuted for child abuse and endangerment.
And stop taking our tax dollars!
Go home!
What’s described here looks like “Take care of the worst, first.”
Granted, since it should be so easy to stop the permits, that should be something that comes very soon.
Yes, every now and again, my family would vacation in San Diego, going to Marineland and the Zoo, but we would also spend an afternoon in Mexico to get souvenirs and things. But here is my point— we would then drive back into America. Today, you can’t tell the two of them apart. California is lost. But we can save much of the rest of the country, or at least delay the inevitable if Trump acts fast.
The Mexico illegale situation is one in which it really took two to tango. It took Mexico urging them to go here, and it took Americans willing to wink and nod and hire them, if necessary, under the table (when they were not living on welfare).
The moral complicity of the USA in this makes it easier for the bleeding hearts to bleed. In the long run, the Wall will make things better for Mexico by stopping most of the clandestine street drug traffic. And Mexico won’t be such a hellish place. But again, Americans were complicit here too. We can’t dodge this before God.
I read that a lot of those that claim to have been brought over here before they were sixteen just came over. They aren’t required to prove it.
“I don’t even care if I see sobbing Mexican children on tv. “
—
Children always pay the price for a parent’s misdeeds.
When police arrest a felon I’m sure that the felon’s children cry.
This is no different.

I’ll be happy when I see INS rounding up the gang and criminal illegals out of the cities. I guess the cities will not provide the data as to who they are but I’m sure they will find them somehow, I hope.
“I was promised by campaigning Donald Trump that they would be removed so fast my head would spin.”
No. Trump said he had a hundred day agenda, for starters.
He’s been in his office 24 hours as of 0900 this morning.
Next you’ll be concern trolling: “”I was promised by campaigning Donald Trump that we would be on Mars so fast my head would spin. Where’s my Mars bars?!”
Lighten up with the whinging Francis before we have to call for a whaaaaaambulance.
There’s been a lot that has gone on with Mexico and the USA, not all of it pretty.
Whatever one’s views about drug legality, the clandestine traffic has been a terrible scourge to both sides of the border, and Mexico is even more ill positioned to deal with it than the USA is. The Wall will do Mexico a favor with respect to this, and make it less hellish.
A less hellish Mexico, in turn, will be less of a temptation to flee.
Immigration was my most important issue, as well, and I think stemming the immigration flood is vital to preserving our nation.
I also think it is important to keep the pressure on the Trump administration, to make sure they follow through on their campaign promises.
However, I believe that this is calling him out a little too soon. This is not a concerned, reasonable analysis of the issue with respect for the time and difficulties involved in getting anything down in a massive federal bureaucracy.
Rather, this smacks of Never Trumpers eagerly anticipating any opportunity to say “See, I told you so!”
Give the man a little time. He probably still hasn’t figured out where all the bathrooms are in the White House.

If Trump reviews this and finds 10 people whom he thinks he should let stay, is that a “betrayal”? Or is it just applying some thought and common sense?
I remember Ciudad Juarez being a safe day trip for mom and the kids. I was fascinated by that rough iron VW Beetle on the streets there. Never a problem, in my childhood.
It’s a no go zone now.
Rough=wrought
We will not be satisfied with just deporting the criminals.
All illegal aliens MUST commit myriad crimes DAILY to further their illegal presence in our country.
Just because they have not yet been caught and convicted is no reason to give them the opportunity to drive drunk and kill Americans before we deport them.
DACA must be stopped immediately. Every day that goes by another 40-50 illegal aliens are being given working papers and permission to remain here.
Even if they just stop taking applications and do not rescind papers already issued, it MUST be stopped NOW.
“I swear our side can be as obnoxious as the left. Just looking for something to complain about.”
Trolls. Losers. They fail to see all the actions being taken and focus on just one action.
I call then Parrot Brains. They are attracted to shiny objects and can only focus on one thing at a time.
