The upcoming raids will target immigrants subject to final orders of deportation across nine cities, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, Miami and Houston.

Families ensnared in the raids who have mixed immigration status may be torn apart by Sunday's operations, with those in the country legally allowed to remain while their family members are deported.

"If the mother wants to return voluntarily on her own with the family, she'll have an opportunity to do so," he said. "In fact, 90 percent of aliens arrested by ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations component in FY2018 had either a criminal conviction, pending criminal charge, were an ICE fugitive, or illegally reentered the country after previously being removed," the spokesperson said."However, all of those in violation of the immigration laws may be subject to immigration arrest, detention and - if found removable by final order - removal from the United States.

LOL! Yeah right

Smoke and mirrors

True.

They have a right to stay. You shouldn’t separate families or force them to leave with them.

ICE= Cold, cold-hearted.🙊

I see we're back to self deportation.

sallymaetexas Well that is the obvious solution.

Sounds like a fair plan.

Posing this false dichotomy of self-deport or face inhumane conditions is dishonest. There are more humane options to this situation.

And if those people are minor citizens

That’s no choice. Some families have kids born in the USA. Their lives are in the USA. Just like those Russian ladies coming to give birth in Florida. What about their citizenship?

Thanks for Nothing!!!...

Fact check - 100% correct

Oh that makes it better. 🙄

Sort of like the Jews could 'voluntarily reunify' by 'choosing' to leave on trains 'with loved ones' and be taken to Ghettos and Nazi concentration camps?

Abolish ICE Now!

This is a hostage taking event. A lot of U.S. born children will be without parents unless they agree to be deported with their parents.

I understand this like a kind of blackmail:“do you want to be together with your family?So get out!If you don’t want to get out,you’ll never see your family again”. What kind of brutes can think in this way? Those are ppl that have nothing back,they have no place to go.Despicable

Really? How kind of them! NOT! CRUEL!

That’s a good strategy. And for the rest we need to hire more judges so that their case is decided quickly. No need to have them suffer any longer than necessary in our cages voteblue2020

Which would make them illegal in that country. Circle jerk continues.

DBChirpy it’s called asylum. It’s called refugees. However, if SS ICE wants to deport Melania, her parents, and anchor baby Barron then go for it. ice cbd SenateGOP HouseGOP we know the Einstein visa is a joke. She over stayed. Send Melania & Anchors back to Slovania

FACT CHECK: true

You can be voluntarily reunited by not breaking the law. Crazy how that works!

Exactly.

Does that apply to all forms of punishment? If a loved one gets the death penalty don’t bitch, join em?

Haters will hate. No reasoning with them.

He's ICE cold.

Very Christian of ICE !

Wow.

Perfect❤🇱🇷❤🇱🇷❤🇱🇷

If you believe that, I have a 2009 Sonata I would like to sell you.

I don’t understand this thinking and I certainly don’t understand ICE objective anymore! dumpgop

No Love for the people, they don't even CareSo Sad

Why would anyone believe TRumps ICE at this point⁉️🤦‍♂️

FY Ice Director!

Bye bye. He's correct.

Those people gave up everything and risked their lives to seek asylum in th US.

I say that’s a fair option. Get out with your family or we throw you out alone.

Sure, I love you baby, but aint leaving USA.

Makes sense.

That’s bullshit. There is no reason to terrorize these families. Shame!!!

Exactly

Quite understandable; as the toughguys currently in charge of NorthKorea, Russia & SaudiArabia are the leading lights & role models for the Great StableGenius.

Acting director

Wtf is wrong with these people? TrumpConcentrationCamps ImpeachTrumpNow

good idea

As it should be.

Sad!

What a shame. Can’t believe this is the USA right now.

Trumpism = nazism

🇺🇸🇺🇸And they should!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸

America is the NEW Nazi Germany.

Signs of fascism, what's next? Burning books and collecting guns, POTUS

What an awful president! Trump shakes hand with one of the dictators from NK, and he even calls him 'his best friend!' Hence, the tribe of the US got rid of Saddam Hussein & Qaddafi, 2 other notorious dictators!

'You can't separate family's!' You can leave together whenever you want 'Well I could probably live without them, not even my kids actually'

The parents have nobody to blame but themselves for illegally entering the country and undermining the rule of law.

I am ashamed of what this country has become.

He can also go back to Europe if he wants to!
