TRENTON >> The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) made an unannounced visit to the capital city on Thursday.
The agency left with four undocumented immigrants from Central America who carry some extra baggage.
“We made four arrests in Trenton today,” ICE spokesman Alvin Phillips said. “They’re Guatemalans.”
Phillips did not know if the immigrants were charged with any crimes and where they were picked up.
The news surprised Trenton Mayor Eric Jackson, who previously called for a stop of ICE raids last year in the city.
“We received no notification at all,” Jackson said Thursday.
A little later in the day, Jackson was informed by ICE that the four immigrants who were picked up in South Trenton all had criminal histories. The mayor said other undocumented immigrants at the locations were not arrested nor detained.
Jackson said the feds are not required by law to notify the city if ICE conducts raids in Trenton.

Each revelation of these detainments arrives just like a new Christmas present - EVERY DAY!!!!!!
The mayor said other undocumented immigrants at the locations were not arrested nor detained.
Not good. More backpedaling from Team Trump.
“The news surprised Trenton Mayor Eric Jackson....”
This guy better get a clue real quick.
states were never notified about refugees being put into their states too, oh and they are illegals
“..other undocumented immigrants at the locations were not arrested nor detained...”

Kudos to ICE. But they should have taken the “other undocumented immigrants” while they were there. Oh well, can’t have everything.
hmmmm...I wonder. He got rid of invader criminals without eliciting the wrath of leftist maniacs. Once these criminal invaders are off the streets, little folk will become more accepting of the raids because crime will decrease.
Doesn't the whole thing raise the possibility of a deal? It's a win-win.
Yeah...Damn backpedaler!!!!
We’d been much better off with Hillary, dontcha know.....
EXACTLY. Thanks very much for starting these very uplifting threads, GonzoII. Much appreciated.
HOORAY agents on the ground. Thanks.
WOOOOHOOOO President Trump
Hooray!
Only another 30 to 60 million more to go!
The mayor said other undocumented immigrants at the locations were not arrested nor detained.

That is bad policy.
EVERY illegal alien is subject to removal.
Illegal aliens should not be given the opportunity to harm or kill Americans before they are removed.
Priorities,....priorities,.....priorities
There’s not enough resources to go after every undocumented alien, which is why the number 11 million illegal aliens is so off base. Get rid of the criminals first, others will begin self deporting and those remaining will be dealt with in due time, all the while progress on securing our borders is taking place.
” Get rid of the criminals first, others will begin self deporting and those remaining will be dealt with in due time, all the while progress on securing our borders is taking place.”
Yes, the actions on the criminals are having a devastating effect on the rest of them. In Los Angeles, they say they are “scared” to go to work and to school. Fine, keep them scared to death. In the end the pressure on them will mount just to go back to Mexico.
Sorry, if ICE comes across illegals in the course their regular duties they need to detain them. Period. This seems to be pretty much the ignore the elephant in the room policy we had under the kenyan regarding these criminal alien raids.
Not also sweeping up other illegals there, even though they are covered under the new EO? And Trump at CPAC now gushing about how sad the immigration capture stories are, but we are only apprehending the dangerous bad guys.
Have Ivanka and Jared got to his immigration enforcement as well?
Kudos to ICE. But they should have taken the “other undocumented immigrants” while they were there. Oh well, can’t have everything.
They were a couple weeks ago. If this report is true something has changed and the Trump admin has gone back to the obama policy of ignoring illegals during ICE raids.
Exactly—I am afraid ICE has already been Ivanka-ized!
