They are not immigrants, there are wetbacks and illegals. Immigrants come here legally.

The irony is Trump has not yet implemented any new enforcement measures. ICE says current operations were planned before the change in administrations. It’s the Fake News media and left who are claiming there are large scale sweeps when there are not. These people are being scared by those claiming to support them.

I’ll bet a lot of Mexican flags are being burned and thrown in dumpsters right about now.

“Every time so much as a white guy with a clipboard is walking around, everyone runs into their apartments and locks the doors,” Sandoval-Moshenberg said.

Clearly, we should outlaw clipboards, or maybe white guys.

Immigrants wait in fear after raids; Trump takes credit

The media still thinks these kinds of headlines are bad for Trump.

They are NOT “immigrants”. They are illegal aliens who have broken multiple laws by coming here, obtaining and using forged or stolen SSNs and working.

My advice to illegals, get out of NOW America before you get a PERMANENT criminal record here that will forbid you from EVER being able to visit the USA ever again.

Why do I have the sneaking suspicion that these “raids” have been going on for 8 years with a complete media blackout.
