President Donald Trump issued new orders as part of his plan to ramp up massive deportations of illegal migrants - a daily quota of arrests for border officials.
In a Saturday phone call with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials, Trump staff said the president was unhappy with the number of arrests so far.
He wants it ramped up from a few hundred a day to 1,200 to 1,500 per day, the Washington Post reported.
ICE officials were told that each field office should make 75 arrests per day and managers would be held accountable when that number isn't reached.
White House communications director Steven Cheung called the quota story 'fake news' but didn't elaborate.
The news of the quota requirement has sparked criticism from those concerned officials will partake in more indiscriminate arrests, or face charges of civil rights violations as they try to meet their numbers.
Trump campaigned on strengthening the U.S. border and cracking down on illegal immigration.
He has already started - a nationwide crackdown on Sunday resulted in the arrest of 956 people.
'We're getting the bad, hard criminals out,' the president told DailyMail.com on Friday.
'These are murderers. These are people that have been as bad as you get. As bad as anybody you've seen. We're taking them out first.'

We’ve got over 20,000,000 illegal alien lawbreakers.
We need 13,700 per day to solve the problem on Trump’s watch.
We need an order of magnitude increase.
Can we just suggest the Exit to every Home Depot in the Country?
Add in ICE should hang out at every hospital emergency department and walmart. They’ll be caught by the thousands.
Considering the number of illegals in this country, that should be an easy to reach goal for a while.
Rumor has it that some are already self-deporting, so that should help.
Home Depot parking lots.....
Which is why I posted the 800 number. It takes all of use to help out.
If you see something, say something. Be the eyes and ears for ICE.
Do your part in helping make American great again
Starting with the local schools. How many anchor/illegal kids are there? get them out!
“We need 13,700 per day to solve the problem on Trump’s watch.
We need an order of magnitude increase.”
I have no problem with minimum numbers being set - anything over that the ICE office gets a bonus per head paid to the officers. Anything less is subtracted from future bonuses.
Yeah we’re paying to clean up the mess left but at present I can’t think of a better use.
Quotas and BIG $ BONUSES for overachieving ICE agents.
Tom Homan you must authorize unlimited overtime, meal, travel and lodging vouchers for all ICE agents.
This is like Sean Connery in The Untouchables “Everyone knows where they are”.
I tried reporting Ilhan Omar. No luck.
Help them get that bonus!
call the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at 1-866-DHS-2-ICE if you see any illegals.
Hmmm that’s why they need handcuffs and guards on the transport planes.
Although quotas are generally good, arrest quotas give me a bad Stalinist Purge vibe. During the great purge of Russia, Stalin implemented an arrest quota that resulted in millions of innocent citizens arrested and sent to the gulags for their “Tenner” sentence for crimes they never committed. Beria was famous for saying: “Show me the man and I will show you the crime” when questioned how just that policy was.
Check your local landscrapers - most are loaded.
Gonna be harder to ID them but I’m sure Tom Homan will be checking every meat processing plant in the country. In the midwest, that’s what brought the illegals here years ago and probably still does. Although I suspect many of Bidens Guests are not working anywhere.
thanks for the phone number...
my neighbor’s venezuelan wife is smuggling people into the country and getting them jobs at construction sites...
Liberals and illegal aliens will be flooding that number with false reports, tying it up so the real calls will have difficulty getting in. They are a little slow keeping up with things but they will soon be abusing it.
I hope ICE has a way to sort the real ones from the fake ones.
Nana is not happy either...
At this rate in one year there will only be less than 1/2 a million illegal aliens deported back home to their own countries...
We have 400 illegal aliens in our local county jail...
When will they be sent back home ???
