WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Trump administration is greatly expanding the number of people living in the U.S. illegally who are considered a priority for deportation, including people arrested for traffic violations, according to agency documents released Tuesday.

The documents represent a sweeping rewrite of the nation's immigration enforcement priorities.

Again, this is just enforcing the law on the books.

ALL illegal aliens ARE subject to removal.

ALL illegal aliens MUST commit other crimes to remain here illegally.
Illegal employment.
Fraudulent documents.
Illegally collecting benefits.
That’s just the tip of the iceberg, we should not have to wait until illegal aliens harm or kill Americans before they are removed.

traffic violations

Suddenly DUI is a minor traffic infraction. Unless you are an American citizen, then a repeat offense will get you 5 years in prison.

It’s a good start but should deport them all.

Excerpt:

“The pair of directives do not have any impact on
President Barack Obama’s program that has protected more
than 750,000 young immigrants from deportation. The
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals remains in place
though immigrants in the program will be still be
eligible for deportation if they commit a crime or
otherwise are deemed to be a threat to public safety or
national security, according to the department.”

If you did any of these things in Mexico you would wish they would deport you anywhere.

Interesting how “going back to enforcing the law” equals a “sweeping re-write” to the Fake News Media.

Obama was counting on time to normalize his perversions of the law. Part of the transformation.

More very fake news. Not one law has been changed, added, modified, or deleted. All the President has done is reprioritize enforcement of existing law.

Bob Clark, director of Porky’s and A Christmas Story, was killed with his son about 10 years ago when an illegal with BAC three times the legal limit plowed into them head-on at 100 MPH.

The illegal alien maid living a few doors down has not come outside even once in the past week. I've heard her yapping in Spanish in her backyard but she must be AFRAID OF ICE because of Trump.

Let them ALL live in FEAR of being deported. We have a right to know WHO IS IN OUR COUNTRY!!!

Trump does not seem enthusiastic about removing the executive order for DACA. He should at least add a provision that states must provide a database of the voter rolls so that people can be checked to see if they voted illegally.
