The Trump administration has reassigned the top Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials in five U.S. cities due to an insufficient number of deportations.

The personnel moves last Friday, which the Washington Examiner first reported, affected ICE leaders in Denver, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Phoenix and San Diego. In some cities, those positions will be filled by senior Border Patrol agents, according to the report. Those five changes won’t be the last, three officials told the outlet.

    So in short… they are worried that ICE isn’t going fast and loose enough, and we need to brace for a massive increase in US citizens getting flown off to other countries.

    If you are below quota and it’s 4:00, just grab a random 4 people off the street. Numbers are the most important thing.

    and of course the other crappy part of numbers is the same problem of the IRS. Actual MS13 members, or whatever gangs etc… can’t be picked up at home depot, or outside the courthouses, or on construction job sites or cleaning their hotels etc… Finding them takes actual detective work… which is very time consuming. So ironically the only effects of immigration that WON’T be cleaned up by this push… is actual criminals.

    It’s just like the problem the IRS has… IE the overwhelming majority of money being cheated by taxes is being done by… well trumps friends. But, those guys can afford big dollar accountants and lawyers, they can shuffle their money around in so many complex ways that it takes massive time to catch up, so the IRS has to instead put focus on individuals and small businesses that if they are cheating it’s small amounts but mostly it’s probably small mistakes.
