From the start of President Trump's term this year through July, ICE had only made 85 arrests in Washington, D.C.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has made 1,200 arrests since the federal takeover in Washington, D.C., began in August, according to a report.
From the start of President Trump's term this year through July, ICE had only made 85 arrests in the nation's capital, per data obtained by the Deportation Data Project, The New York Times reported. However, from early August until mid-September, ICE made around 1,200 arrests, according to unnamed officials, per the newspaper.
Trump deployed federal law enforcement officers in August across Washington, D.C., to crack down on crime.
ICE has worked closely with both the Metropolitan Police Department and the U.S. Park Police, according to the Times' review of videos filmed by witnesses.
The federal agency has signed more than 520 agreements in 35 states since January that allow local law enforcement to work with federal officials on immigration enforcement during routine patrols.
Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement that immigration officials in the nation's capital had “arrested gang members, kidnappers, drug traffickers and other violent thugs.”
“Criminal aliens are a public safety threat, and there should be no place for sanctuary policies that place crime over the community.”
The Department of Homeland Security did not respond to the Times' questions about how many of the 1,200 people detained for immigration violations in the city had also been accused of committing other crimes.

It’s great that we finally have a potus that believes in the rule of law in the USA.
So, a lot of Demoncrat voters are gone?
When are they going to deport the retarded, LA Mayor? She’s dumber than a dog pile.
I’m hoping to see Adam Schiff next. You can’t tell me he’s from this planet.
So...looks like a LOT of people weren’t doing their jobs. They need to be fired.
The feds showed up in Memphis, and had 40,000 felony warrants handed to them for execution. Steve Mulroy’s been a very bad boy.....
Whaaaaaat???
“””So...looks like a LOT of people weren’t doing their jobs. They need to be fired.””
Since they are democrats they will get PROMOTED.
I wonder if anyone is suggesting we build a few more prisons here and there.
Or insane asylums. Those would be a good idea, imho.
HOORAY hard-working individuals at I.C.E.
And all of the legal Spanish speakers can be heard shouting;
¡Mas Hielo!
(More ICE)!
Someone needs to super impose his picture in the scene from Men in Black where celebrities were pictured as aliens.
Democrats deeply saddened!
Right after the Chicago Mayor. And the leading NYC Mayoral candidate. And the mayor of Portland, OR. So many anti-Americans that should be shown the door.
Oh, I agree. Deport, yes.
But there are a lot of ‘bad guys’ who are citizens and the liberal judges keep arresting and letting them out on bail and they go out and do more ‘bad guy stuff’.
Need stricter enforcement and no cries of prison overcrowding.
Maketh the prisons.
deportation is the only realistic way to dispose of this trash.
Can you provide any sources for that 40,000 figure?
I will get back to you.
