Trump directs ICE to track down unaccompanied migrant children

mmigration enforcement officers have been directed to track down and deport migrant children who arrived in the United States without their parents. It comes amid heightened pressures to reach President Trump's lofty deportation targets as part of his election commitment to solve America's immigration crisis. According to an internal memo seen by Reuters , agents at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will now direct their focus to unaccompanied minors.

The memo cited a 'planning phase' to begin on January 27, followed by three more phases of implementation, to begin at an unspecified date. Trump signed an executive order upon returning to the White House rolling back certain protections for migrants which forbade ICE officers from arresting them at certain locations - including schools. More than 600,000 immigrant children have crossed the U.S.-Mexico border without a parent or legal guardian since 2019, according to government data.

The memo is headlined the 'Unaccompanied Alien Children Joint Initiative Field Implementation.' Authorities, as part of the instructions, are to ensure children are not victims of human trafficking or being exploited before deporting them. Children would be served a notice to appear in immigration court to decide their fates. Those with deportation orders already pending against them would be deported instantly.

OK...that could be one way ICE concludes that a particular kid is Mexican..Guatemalan,etc. But it's easy to imagine....*very* easy,in fact...a foreign government saying to ICE โ€œOK,you *suspect* that he/she belongs to us but we demand proofโ€.In fact I'd be willing to bet that that's *exactly* what they'll say.

I predict that a very substantial percentage of these kids will never leave and will eventually be given citizenship.I do hope I'm wrong however.
