WASHINGTON (AP) President Donald Trump on Sunday directed federal immigration officials to prioritize deportations from Democratic-run cities, a move that comes after large protests erupted in Los Angeles and other major cities against the Trump administrations immigration policies.
Trump in a social media posting called on U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to do all in their power to achieve the very important goal of delivering the single largest Mass Deportation Program in History.
He added that to reach the goal officials must expand efforts to detain and deport Illegal Aliens in Americas largest Cities, such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York, where Millions upon Millions of Illegal Aliens reside.
Trumps declaration comes after weeks of increased enforcement, and after Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff and main architect of Trumps immigration policies, said ICE officers would target at least 3,000 arrests a day, up from about 650 a day during the first five months of Trumps second term.

But Donny was never known for his smarts.

To me this is all for Trumps ego.
