The U.S. Justice Department is developing plans to temporarily reassign immigration judges from around the country to 12 cities to speed up deportations of illegal immigrants who have been charged with crimes, according to two administration officials.
-----------------------------------------------
The targeted cities are New York; Los Angeles; Miami; New Orleans; San Francisco; Baltimore, Bloomington, Minnesota; El Paso, Texas; Harlingen, Texas; Imperial, California; Omaha, Nebraska and Phoenix, Arizona. They were chosen because they are cities which have high populations of illegal immigrants with criminal charges, the officials said.
A spokeswoman for the Justice Department's Executive Office of Immigration Review, which administers immigration courts, confirmed that the cities have been identified as likely recipients of reassigned immigration judges, but did not elaborate on the planning.
The plan to intensify deportations is in line with a vow made frequently by President Donald Trump on the campaign trail last year to deport more illegal immigrants involved in crime.
The Department of Homeland Security asked for the judges' reshuffle, an unusual move given that immigration courts are administered by the Department of Justice. A Homeland Security spokeswoman declined to comment on any plan that has not yet been finalized.
Under an executive order signed by Trump in January, illegal immigrants with pending criminal cases are regarded as priorities for deportation whether they have been found guilty or not.
That is a departure from former President Barack Obama's policy, which prioritized deportations only of those convicted of serious crimes.
------------------------------------------------
The cities slated to receive more judges have more than half of the 18,013 pending immigration cases that involve undocumented immigrants facing or convicted of criminal charges, according to data provided by the Justice Department's Executive Office of Immigration Review.

What good is deportation? These people are like stray cats you feed, Take them into the next county and they will be back in a week. We need to microchip these multiple returnies without them knowing it so they are easier to catch the next time.
And It happened in Washington DC!
Next case!
Such a great song and perfect soundtrack!
Trump said he would do this... he’s keeping his word.
You could just cut off their noses and then send them home. They couldn’t hide that and it t would scare the shit out of everyone else lol.
It’s about time. Deport them all!
Slingshot? Nope. One word: “trebuchet”.

I’ll bet out wonderful MSM will never get around to asking any Obama Admin. officials why they never thought of directing more judges to cities with the highest numbers of criminal aliens...
