[quote=Anonymous]Looks like ICE isn't hitting their deportation goals and Trump isn't happy about it. This article is an excellent read on the practical obstacles to mass deportations (insufficient funding, insufficient personnel, insufficient space in local jails, growing need--and perils of--going into local communities to find potential deportees, etc.). I've linked a gift article for those who are interested in reading it.

[b]ICE struggles to boost arrest numbers despite infusion of resources[/b]
[i]Trump has ordered a wartime effort to increase deportations, but ICE statistics show arrests have dipped so far this month.[/i]

ICE arrests have sagged so far this month, according to data provided by the Department of Homeland Security, declining from about 800 per day in late January after Trump took office to fewer than 600 during the first 13 days of February. The administration has stopped publishing daily numbers, and Trump officials said they will release the data on a monthly basis to conserve resources. It is a level well below the Trump administration’s goal of 1,200 to 1,500 arrests per day. “I’m not happy. We need more‚” Tom Homan, Trump’s designated “border czar,” said Thursday on Newsmax.
