Homeland Security Reveals Plans for Crackdown on Illegal Immigrants
NewsMax ^ | February 21, 2017 | By Mark Swanson

The Department of Homeland Security Tuesday began rolling out President Donald Trump's plans to aggressively crack down on illegal immigrants.

The plan, outlined in two DHS memos, includes an attempt to deport almost all illegal immigrants caught in the U.S., hire thousands more border patrol and immigration agents, and start building the promised wall along the Mexican border.

~~snip~~

The memos were sent to heads of key agencies and signed by DHS Secretary John Kelly.

Kelly said in one memo that it "implements new policies designed to stem illegal immigration and facilitate the detection, apprehension, detention, and removal of aliens who have no lawful basis to enter or remain in the United States."

Mexico should be happy to get all of these U.S. trained and educated people back in their own country. They should provide more diversity and do wonders for the Mexican economy.

I read that many DHS employees had their network access made unavailable. Usually the first step to a pink slip.

Oops! No more freebies!
Make the Mexican millionaires foot the bill for all these illegals.
Make the cartels pay for their food, phones, schooling, rent, gas, childcare and healthcare.

Mexican plans to relocate the Great Wall of China to appease Trump were abandoned after it was revealed that much of the wall is a burial ground.

It’s great to see liberals, criminals, illegals, Marxists (I repeat myself) heads exploding now that President Trump is in office carrying out his promises.

I believe that much of this (including some sections of "The Wall") are in existing law and are funded.

In the law, yes - funded, no. Congress passed the bill that permitted the wall back under Bush, then clawed back the funding.

But, But, But....

We didn't expect Trump to actually keep his campaign promises.

No one does that - It's unheard of!

This proves he's insane!

What is needed are increasingly restrictive currency controls.

Cut off the flow of $ back to Mehico.

/s yes, I know but..

Mexico is the one flooding the U.S. with illegals, because WHY? REMITTANCE PAYMENTS TO MEXICO, THAT'S WHY!

Remittance payments are Mexico's #1 SOURCE OF REVENUE!! And they also empty their prisons into the United States. Why should Mexico spend billions incarcerating criminals when we can do it FOR them at OUR taxpayer's expense?

Trump needs to hold the Mexican government authorities personally responsible for OUR illegal alien disaster!

Why

Do

We

Announce

These

Things?

Why not send an engraved invitation of deportation so they can hide somewhere to evade law enforcement?

While it’s prudent to target illegals who have gone on to commit other crimes, all illegals that are encountered should be detained and deported too.

The left is creating the fake meme that illegals who haven’t additional committed crimes can stay.
