Acting ICE Director Mark Morgan says he's got 'green light' to continue removing illegal immigrants
Fox News ^ | June 22, 2019 | Vandana Rambaran

President Trump decided Saturday to postpone Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids and mass deportations across the country, set to begin Sunday, to give Democrats more time to reach a bipartisan agreement about the immigration crisis at the southern border.

The change of heart came after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif, called Trump on Friday, asking him to call off the raids, a source familiar with the situation told Fox News.

Acting ICE Director Mark Morgan said on "Justice with Judge Jeanine" on Fox News on Saturday that the postponement will "give Congress another chance on a bipartisan method to actually get together, pass this supplement, so that we can enforce the rule of law, positively impact this crisis and maintain the integrity of this system."

Trump never announces his plans.

He did this so the Democrat Mayors and other elected officials could blink and send intel to illegals and their front groups. Also I read that law enforcement were compromised.

The Dems aren't going to deal. They didn't deal during the 2 government shutdowns. This is POTUS putting the screws to the Rats in Congress, and if deportations happen, that's on the Dems.

Let’s see if I can get any part of this straight.

Trump was going to enforce the law and round up and deport illegals who have broken the law again by not only coming here but also by missing their court dates for asylum hearings etc. Right so far?

Nutty Pelousy wanted him to wait so the dims can do some bipartisan thing to change the law so the people Trump was going to deport legally can be deported legally?

What am I missing here?

Pass what supplement?

“”give Congress another chance on a bipartisan method to actually get together, pass this supplement, so that we can enforce the rule of law, positively impact this crisis and maintain the integrity of this system.”

This guy will go far in gubment. He has mastered double speak or psychobabble.

I would like to know WHY , so many of these wet backs , from wherever they are coming from , as fat as can be . Take a look . Many are as fat as old hogs . Are they coming in , to eat us out of house and home ? To gain an endless supply of beans and tortillas for themselves ? They definitely do NOT looking like poor starving people to me . Not at all

This article, Mayors of Major U.S. Cities Say They Will Not Cooperate With ICE Raids of Illegal Immigrants asks an interesting question
Shouldn’t there be a way to remove mayors and other elected officials from office when they openly defy federal law?
There is, but nearly everyone has forgotten it:

14th Amendment, Sect. 3 No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

14th Amendment, Sect. 5 The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.

Using this might not require any current legislative action. I presume the Radical Republicans who wrote the 14th subsequently wrote implementing legislation. I just don't know whether it was later ever cancelled. If not, Trump has a sleeve full of aces if he was the will to use them.

“Trump was going to enforce the law and round up and deport illegals who have broken the law again by not only coming h”

Actually, in these contemplated raids, that IS NOT the case. These people being sought for removal, have been to court, judged ineligible to remain in our country, and been given an order of removal. So they have exhausted their legal remedies to stay here, have been ordered to leave, but have not done so. It is outrageous that any state or local government is giving sanctuary to them.

It’s called give them enough rope to hang themselves. He is under no delusion that Congress will do anything, but then it becomes an election issue. He wants to not only be reelected in 2020, but he wants to regain the House and increase the Senate majority as well.

More outrageous are the Democrat "leaders" of these local governments, aiding and abetting criminals. They should all be hung.

But do mayors actually take that oath? I don’t think they do.

I agree. Trump needs to not only win reelection, but have the Republicans in control of both the House and the Senate. He can go on the campaign trail and say he is willing to make deals to solve the illegal immigration problem but the Democrats refused to compromise.

Hate to say it, but I had to sign a similar oath before I could sign a contract with a Cal State University to do some consulting work. Remember my wife and I chuckling over this, as it seemed I'd just been sworn in as Governor of California, not some flunky computer nerd.

Also nice clothes, new shoes, cell phones...if those that are persecuted in those countries do so well you would think people would be trying to get into those countries instead of leaving.

They should be checking to see if their names are on the list of registered voters in the precinct they were living in and if they have been voting. Check the precinct list of registered voters where these people resided. If they’re on that list, Federal crime, charge them and those that enabled this
Delay gives pervocrats time to clean up voter lists and remove illegals names from. Election fraud is what also should be looked at before kicking them out

The only thing that will change the evil RATs is the barrel of a gun pointed at their noggins.

As things stand, I’d just as soon call of the 2020 election in favor of a Trump- and military-led counter coup and Leftist decapitation strike.

All hail Donaldus Caesar!

The dems want to look like the heroes so people will vote for them.

Trump can outsmart the whole lot of them without even trying.

They have not learned yet that EVERYTHING he does, he does for a reason. He is the most calculating president we’ve ever had. It’s great, but sometimes stressful, to watch a master at work.
