    Top immigration official says ICE is ready to deport 1 million undocumented immigrants

    The Trump administration's top official at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) said immigration authorities are ready to identify, detain and eventually deport approximately one million undocumented immigrants with pending removal orders.
    "They're ready to just perform their mission, which is to go and find and detain and then deport the approximately one million people who have final removal orders," Acting USCIS Director Ken Cuccinelli said on "Face the Nation" on Sunday, referring to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the Homeland Security branch charged with removal operations.
    Cuccinelli, an immigration hardliner who took the helm of the agency last month, said it is within ICE's discretion to determine who among those with final orders of deportation will be targeted in operations, suggesting the full pool of approximately one million immigrants might not face deportation after all.
    "They've been all the way through the due process and have final removal orders. Who among those will be targeted for this particular effort ... is really just information kept within ICE at this point," he added. "The pool of those with final removal orders is enormous."


    U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Acting Director Ken Cuccinelli on "Face the Nation," July 7, 2019. CBS News The USCIS chief's assertions suggest that ICE is ready to conduct the series of roundups President Trump announced — and later postponed — in June.
    Two weeks ago, the president said he would delay a wave of roundups of undocumented families, but threatened to order mass deportations unless congressional Democrats agreed to revamp the nation's asylum laws within two weeks. Efforts to reform the U.S. immigration system have failed under both Republican and Democratic administrations, and there is currently no legislation with sufficient bipartisan support to pass in both chambers of Congress, especially during the timeline Mr. Trump demanded.
    On Friday, the president said the roundups would be "starting fairly soon."
    Under the operation — which ICE said would send a "powerful message" of deterrence to would-be migrants in Central America considering journeying towards the U.S.-Mexico border — authorities had been expected to carry out a series of raids in major U.S. cities to apprehend and deport families who received an order of removal from a judge.
    Last month, the president claimed that "millions" would be deported under a new wave of operations — something likely to be logistically impossible given the resources and manpower ICE has at its disposal. Last year, ICE removed more than 250,000 people. The highest number of yearly deportations came during the Obama administration in 2012, when the agency removed approximately 410,000 undocumented immigrants.
    Any large-scale deportation blitz would also likely spark a massive public outcry and affect not only undocumented immigrants with pending removal orders, but millions of mixed-status families with members who are U.S. citizens.
    Cuccinelli, who as the Virginia attorney general and a Republican state lawmaker pushed several anti-immigration positions, said ICE's efforts to remove undocumented immigrants have been "held up" and "interfered" with by the politics in Washington. He suggested that people should not be surprised about officials carrying out these operations.
    "Here we are talking about ICE doing its job as if it's special, and really this should be going on a rolling basis," he said, adding later, "They're looking forward to just doing their jobs."

    Watch–Ken Cuccinelli: ICE Ready to Deport Approximately 1M Illegal Aliens with Final Deportation Orders

    Acting United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Director Ken Cuccinelli says the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency is ready to deport about a million illegal aliens who remain in the country despite having final orders for deportation.

    During an interview with CBS News on Sunday, Cuccinelli said despite a delay of mass deportations by President Trump two weeks ago, ICE agents are ready to detain and deport the roughly one million illegal aliens who have been ordered deported from the country.
    Cuccinelli said:
    [ICE agents are] ready to just perform their mission which is to go and find and detain and then deport the approximately one million people who have final removal orders. They’ve been all the way through the due process and have final removal orders. Who among those will be targeted for this particular effort or not is really just information kept within ICE. [Emphasis added]
    Cuccinelli said mass deportations by ICE of illegal aliens with final deportation orders “should be going on on a rolling basis” and blamed “the politics of Washington” for interfering with ICE operations.
    “I’m just pointing out that the pool of those with final removal orders is enormous,” Cuccinelli said. “It’s important to note, here we are talking about ICE doing its job as if it’s special. And really this should be going on on a rolling basis for ICE and they’ve been interfered with, effectively, and held up by the politics of Washington to a certain extent…”
    Trump, last month, delayed a plan by ICE to mass deport about 2,000 illegal aliens who had final deportation orders after details of the operation were leaked to the media. Former ICE Director Thomas Homan accused Acting Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kevin McAleenan of leaking the plans of the ICE raid in order to halt the operation.
    Though Trump gave Congress two weeks to devise a plan to close loopholes in the country’s asylum system — loopholes that have invited millions of border crossers to the U.S. over the last decade — no such plan has been crafted that would pass the House and Senate.
    The latest Harvard/Harris Poll finds that a majority of Americans support Trump’s plan to mass deport illegal aliens following inaction from Congress. This includes support from more than 8-in-10 Republican voters and more than 5-in-10 swing voters.
    As Breitbart News has chronicled, there are about 1.7 million illegal aliens from Central America and Mexico, alone, living in the U.S. despite already being ordered deported or having pending deportation orders. The latest federal data concludes that there are more than 925,000 illegal aliens, in total, with final deportation orders who have continued living freely in the U.S. About 20 percent of these illegal aliens have at least one criminal conviction and almost all are not in federal custody. Roughly 60 percent of these illegal aliens come from Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala.

    What about the millions of illegals that have sneaked across our border and avoided our immigration courts? The ones they seem to primarily focused on are the ones that were issued deportation orders when they never showed up for their court hearings. This is what you get when you practice catch & release. Catch & release needs to end completely! If large scale detention centers need to be the order of the day, so be it! I'd rather know the illegals are locked up and off our streets than deal with them walking among us.

    Don't reward the criminal actions of millions of illegal aliens by giving them citizenship.

    Stop letting MORE in...we want them deported OUT...not add to the millions that already are here and need to go!

    Shut down all immigration until the next election...no more people! We do not have to fill those quotas! Made up numbers by those swamp rats...here's a number for you...ZERO!!

    No refugees, no asylum, no TPS, no illegals, no visa overstays. Clean up the damn mess, not add more to the pile!

    No more extensions of TPS...we want them to go home! "Temporary" is OVER!

    Sunday bombshell: Pool for deportation is up to 1 million illegals who have already had due process

    Laying out this eye-popping number serves two important functions.


    July 8, 2019

    By Thomas Lifson

    Sunday morning's network talking head shows yielded one eye-popping statement.
    "They're ready to just perform their mission, which is to go and find and detain and then deport the approximately one million people who have final removal orders," Acting USCIS Director Ken Cuccinelli said on "Face the Nation" on Sunday, referring to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) branch charged with removal operations.

    Cuccinelli, an immigration hardliner who took the helm of the agency last month, said it is within ICE's discretion to determine who among those with final orders of deportation will be targeted in operations, suggesting the full pool of approximately one million immigrants might not face deportation after all.
    "They've been all the way through the due process and have final removal orders. Who among those will be targeted for this particular effort ... is really just information kept within ICE at this point," he added. "The pool of those with final removal orders is enormous."



    (Full transcript here.)

    Full nine-minute segment:


    YouTube Video https://youtu.be/z6AdLCiigRI

    The number one million has tremendous resonance: it is what first comes to mind as a really big number. It signals "mass deportations" — a bugaboo for Democrats and advocates of illegal immigration.
    Having Cuccinelli lay out this number serves two functions.
    1. It is a signal to Trump's base that he will deliver on their concerns about illegal immigration. Many are disappointed that the border wall has not been completed or even adequately funded. Trump needs them to turn out in 2020. He cannot afford to discourage them.
    2. It is also bait to lure the Democrats into hysteria over "dividing families" and all the other heartstring-tugging memes they can devise. Trump wants this reaction because the Democrats, by advocating for people who have received due process and have flouted court orders, are defending outright lawlessness. Let them go out on that limb, and Trump will gladly saw it off during a presidential debate.
    Note that Cuccinelli is a former NeverTrump who has agreed to serve in the Trump administration. If he handles this well, there may be greater things ahead for him, as he is a very smart and capable guy. I don't know him well, but I have spoken to him and regard him as rock-solid, despite his early reservations about and serious opposition to Trump's nomination.
    Speaking with the White House in the background makes it unmistakable that he is on board and speaking for the president.
