Trump announces a two week DELAY on planned dawn raids by ICE (trunc)
Daily Mail ^ | June 22nd, 2019 | By Keith Griffith

President Donald Trump has said that he is delaying planned enforcement actions by Immigration and Customs Enforcement to remove thousands of illegal immigrants.

'At the request of Democrats, I have delayed the Illegal Immigration Removal Process (Deportation) for two weeks to see if the Democrats and Republicans can get together and work out a solution to the Asylum and Loophole problems at the Southern Border. If not, Deportations start!' Trump said in a tweet on Saturday afternoon.

Enforcement raids had been scheduled to begin at dawn on Sunday in at least 10 major cities, drawing furious protests from local Democrat officials who vowed to fight the deportations.

Trump had been adamant that the raids would go forward as recently as Saturday morning, and his stunning reversal on the ICE raids comes amid a tumultuous week in which it was revealed that he pulled back on a planned strike against Iran at the last minute after learning the casualty projections.

Perhaps they just wanted to see where the illegals would be scattering to for the big grab later.

Even if the Mexican government wants to cooperate, they only control 20% of their country.

I hope this is some kind of strategy Trump is using and not what it appears to be.

Check the precinct list of registered voters where these people resided. If they’re on that list, Federal crime, charge them and those that enabled this

Brilliant. Even on this contentious thread that is tearing the good people apart, who is there who could argue with your great idea? Sort of like getting Al Capone on tax evasion.

I see this as a perfect time to go after election fraud particularly in areas where the results are highly questionable and have a high percentage of illegals.

Good. This will give him enough time to fire the DHS acting director who leaked the details of the raids to the media, and appoint someone with ethics. Father, in the Name of Jesus, give him wisdom and reliable, trustworthy advisors, I pray. Amen.

Nah - he knows that if they actually produce, he gains leverage by forcing their hand...if they do the usual and prove themselves liars....again....he gains leverage...either way, he gains leverage and while we keep getting antsy, a couple weeks makes zero difference to the big picture end game.
