Are we having deportation raids?
I was just about to ask the same thing; are any actual raids even happening at all? Trump has done this before; dire warnings of impeding government action, followed by nothing or some greatly minimized, intermittent efforts.
Closing most of the borders to Mexico was another.
The people targeted have final deportation orders, these are the easiest removals.
They are not RAIDS as the media loves to use in headlines but ICE is enforcing the law.
One thing that tickles me is some of the cartel guys for years have owned huge nice homes here in the US where they stash their family. In the last week I have seen articles about at least 5 of them being arrested at their nice US homes. Most have arrest warrants and deportation orders both here they have accumulated over the years and yet for some reason they are rarely disturbed at their fine US properties. That has changed. I would think it may have had the effect of many of them gathering their families up and taking them back to Mexico.
ICE is out and about gathering up people with deportation orders, but the media isn’t going to report on anything that might make Trump look good even to his supporters.
The media is looking for that sympathetic story or someone gathered up through mistaken identity or something that makes Trump look bad then they will be all over that story.
