Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is ramping up arrests and deportations of criminal aliens in the first few weeks of President Donald Trump’s second term.
As of Jan. 31, ICE-led operations have resulted in the arrest of more than 8,000 illegal immigrants, based on a collection of the agency’s social media posts since January 23.
ICE officers in Denver arrested an illegal Mexican national on Jan. 30 in Adams County, Colorado who was previously charged with assault and kidnapping. ICE also arrested four criminal aliens each with “convictions or charges related to sexual assault” in Washington state this month.
"Sanctuary Cities" fairly powerless
ICE has been making arrests of illegal immigrants with criminal records in sanctuary cities and counties, which do not cooperate with federal immigration authorities.
