Homeland Security Secretary John F. Kelly has signed sweeping new guidelines that empower federal authorities to more aggressively detain and deport illegal immigrants inside the United States and at the border.

In a pair of memos, Kelly offered more detail on plans for the agency to hire thousands of additional enforcement agents, expand the pool of immigrants who are prioritized for removal, speed up deportation hearings and enlist local law enforcement to help make arrests.

The new directives would supersede nearly all of those issued under previous administrations, Kelly said, including measures from President Barack Obama aimed at focusing deportations exclusively on hardened criminals and those with terrorist ties.

Agree, The illegals (and leftist) should be given an ultimatum.

Get out NOW, or be sent to Saddam Hussein’s shredding machine.

Unfortunately Trump has a soft spot for ‘dreamers’. I wish he’d put that sympathy towards Americans youngsters who don’t get preferential treatment getting into colleges, stealing spots from Americans. And stealing jobs from Americans.

I knew of many in Mexifornia-they had nothing but disdain for the US, spoke primary Spanish, and celebrated every Mexican holiday-but took all the free handouts they could find, feeling entitled to them. They are the last group of users that we need here.

DACA should be last as it is the rallying point for the opposition. Deport violent criminal aliens first, then felony (not including border felonies) second, then people who were deported but crossed a second time, etc.
Seal the border and change law not to favor relatives of citizens.

If enough DACA aliens are deported through crimes and felony deportation people,will be less sensitive to the deportation of DACA alone. Any DACA remaining should be considered for citizenship based on the needs of the country for their skill set.

I’m I correct that every damn illegal, even if they committed murder, gets a hearing before being deported? If that is the case, shit, how can we ever win this battle?
