Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested almost 1,000 undocumented immigrants on Sunday, with apprehensions reported across the United States.

The agency said law enforcement officers made 956 arrests and issued 554 detainers, which indicate "probable cause to believe that the individual is removable from the United States under federal immigration law."

This marked a steady increase in operations that have grown larger since President Donald Trump's second term began on January 20. Newsweek contacted ICE for further comment via email outside normal office hours.'

In his first week since returning to office, Trump has followed through on his 2024 campaign promise to launch the "largest deportation program" in U.S. history, signing a series of executive orders that showcase his administration's commitment to implementing a hard-line immigration agenda.

Tom Homan, President Donald Trump's border czar, told NewsNation on Thursday: "If we arrested 1,300 people, over a thousand of them are criminals. Who are the other ones? They are either fugitives who've been through immigration court and ordered removed but didn't leave and became a fugitive or collaterals. Where do the collateral arrests happen? In sanctuary cities because they forced us into the community. Like I said from Day 1, no one is off the table. If you're in the United States illegally, you got a problem. But we are concentrating on public safety threats first."

I hope they’re also RAMPING UP RECRUITING AND HIRING OF NEW AGENTS.

It’s not an overnight thing with the requirement for thorough (and time consuming) background investigations. Then there will the time required for training.

I hope they hire ‘real’ agents and not people who want to make deals with the cartels

ICE needs to come to my local Walmart and bring a butt load of handcuffs

[House Atreides]

For sure. And the folks chosen to do the interviews and make the hiring decisions need to be HARDCORE American patriots,

almost 1,000 undocumented immigrants on Sunday

So, at that rate, it will only take about 68 years to round up and deport all 25+ million of them.

Thanks for the info of site handy for glee medicine.

I hope to see ICE is hiring 88,000 new agents.

Or, better yet, President Trump is transferring the 88,000 IRS agents Biden hired to be ICE field agents.

Taxing the hell out of remittances back home will rev up the self deports.

Music to my ears! 😁

Same here. Every aisle - no english speakers.

Go to any Home Depot in the Bay area California and you’ll find many illegals.

[V_TWIN]

And that includes the employees!

[Surrounded_too]

88,000 IRS agents Biden hired

Did you look today? I am curious. a sincere question.

[MRadtke]

I'm very interested in seeing what crime statistics will show for the coming year, also fentanyl and related drug overdose cases. Hopefully we'll see significant improvement (I think we will).

Should this be the case, I'm wondering how the dems react to it, besides more hyperbolic screeching. I'm thinking they'll attempt to hide the stats.

[Tommy Revolts]

True that.

Oh, that reminds of a time when I was living in San Diego and had just purchased a Border Patrol type hat for support and a couple more for gifts to those who lived nowhere near the North or Southern borders..

I knew not to wear it anywhere around there because it was close enough to the real thing from a distance, except once.

After banking close by decided to drive a couple minutes in the Home Depot parking lot, with the hat on..

Probably any hat of that color would have worked,though..
