U.S. immigration authorities launched a series of raids, traffic stops and checkpoints in at least half a dozen states across the country on Thursday and Friday, sweeping up an unknown number of undocumented immigrants, immigration lawyers and advocates said.
The raids, which appeared to target scores of undocumented immigrants, including those without criminal records, mark the first largescale episode of immigration enforcement inside the United States since President Trumps Jan. 26 order to crack down on the estimated 11 million immigrants living here illegally.

If DHS had an immigration checkpoint around here I’d bring them doughnuts!
Deport yourself and your family...law and order is coming...let the panic ensue
Making America Great Again!

“Sweeping,” as in rooting out the criminal elements. Trump has been clear to say our efforts would be focused on bad characters. Don’t expect the press to make that distinction.
Go Trump!
Lets do sumtin COMPREHENSIVE !! For each year an illegal has been here, he/she will lose 5 years of eligibility for ALL welfare retirement type services/benefits,
INCLUDING Soc Sec and Medicare...i.e. if its 67 years and they have been illegal for 3 years, they have to wait til age 82 to get benefits..
Excellent!
More please!
Perfect.
Correct, those criminals will be picked up as e-verify assures self deportation for millions more who are no longer able to work illegally. Hopefully draconian measures against employers who illegally employ foreigners will help convince even more to head home.
Is this an important news story? I mean is this a change from the last 8 years and due to the new POTUS?
Methinks THIS is Trump’s answer to the 9th Circus: massive immigration enforcement. Good. That’ll solve a large part of the problem.
Illegal aliens are not eligible, PERIOD.
Oh, are you saying these swept up in the raids will get their day in court first? Crap. I guess that takes months and in the meantime they get to stay?
Winning...
