President Trump is ordering the federal government to step up enforcement of the nation's immigration laws, to the delight of enforcement-first immigration hawks who have been on the outside looking in during the last two administrations.
"For me, every day since the election has been like Christmas," said former Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., who was for a decade the leading immigration restrictionist in Congress. "Santa Trump gives me a present every day and this was today's."
The gift Tancredo is referring to came in the form of Department of Homeland Security documents made public Tuesday detailing the Trump administration's plans to increase immigration enforcement both at the border and within the interior of the country.
According to these documents, the Trump administration is going to expand its enforcement priorities beyond illegal immigrants who have also committed serious crimes. Any criminal conviction could result in deportation, especially for the kind of document fraud that is common among the undocumented.

Thank you, Santa Trump. The presents are lovely. The right sizes and my favourite colours.
It is called the Rule of Law, i.e., enforcing our existing laws, which is the very foundation of our Republic. The only thing that makes it remarkable is that Bush 43 and Obama failed to do that. Hence, we have 12 to 20 million illegal aliens in this country taking American jobs, depressing wages, committing millions of crimes, costing at least $113 billion a year, and draining our welfare system dry.
Next up empty out America’s Death ROWS! Bring back public execution to deter more killings. Treat drug dealers as killers. All violent criminals serve out full sentences, NO PLEA DEALS for lesser ones. RAPIST get castrated just like you’d do a bull. None of this chem crap.
Breaking into somebody’s home and stealing everything you want is not “immigration”. It’s a criminal offense. America is not a piñata.
My wife especially loves the parfume......Eau des Larmes..... :0)
You deserve them living in Colorado Sweetest You!
Deterrence and economic relief in one stop shopping
D’OH!
Whitehouse.gov...”The President is responsible for implementing and enforcing the laws written by Congress and, to that end, appoints the heads of the federal agencies, including the Cabinet.”
Obama & Bush version read...”The President is responsible for ignoring the laws written by Congress...”
:)
I agree with the sentiment but very poor analogy.
Every morning is Christmas for the Trumpers and every night Halloween for the Libs.
Trump is just doing his job which Dubya and Omuslim would not do.
I'm not sure what that is...lol. But upon looking it up, I found this perfume that I would like:
$275 dollars, though! You know how that lady wanted "Obama" to pay for her gas? Do you think Trumpie would buy this perfume for me? ;)
