Pity. Sounded like it would’ve been a good plan.

100,000 = 2,000/state AVG. 2,000 per state to help ICE is not a bad idea.

200,000 would be a better plan.

Good way to identify the leakers by departmentalizing and isolating specific knowledge to inside information.

Too bad, I wish we would get that serious about deporting illegal aliens.

Not just those who have already been convicted of other crimes here. Why should we give illegal aliens the opportunity to harm of kill Americans before we deport them?

All illegal aliens are subject to deportation.

Even those whose deportation was illegally deferred by Obama’s illegal DACA program.

DACA is still operating as if it were law.

It could be a trap for leaker inside White House.

Daily Mail uses the term “denies”, with its pejorative connotation of defensiveness.

NBC (!) stated that the White House identified the AP report as “untrue” or “false” (I can’t remember the actual wording).

NBC was actually more honest than Daily Mail.

Wow.

I was thinking the same thing. Trump is running a sting on the leakers.

Is it illegal to use the National Guard to round up the illegals?

If they are federalized under Title 10 and fall under the command of the President, then posse comitatus would apply.

If they remain under command of their respective governors, then it's perfectly OK.

(Having said that, posse comitatus is just a statute. The Republican Congress could temporarily waive it by statute...and pigs could fly)

Isn’t it up to the Governors of each State to call out the National Guard???

It was Roosevelt who stealthily rounded up illegals and MARCHED THEM! all the way from the Midwest to Mexico! So as to prop his New Deal and job making.

Nowadays they just cook the unemployment books

Would Posse Comitatus apply? I am not so sure. These are Federal Immigration laws they are enforcing.
