Summary

Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, admitted that finding undocumented immigrants with criminal records has been difficult, requiring full ICE teams for field raids.

Arrest numbers, around 14,000 in Trump’s first month, are below the administration’s 1,500-per-day goal.

Homan blamed sanctuary cities for not cooperating with federal immigration enforcement. He vowed to increase enforcement teams and denied mass school or church raids, though ICE may target specific criminals.

The administration has stopped publishing daily arrest figures, despite a drop in immigration arrests since November.

    Imagine conscripting 12M people and then getting your professional army to just kill them instead. Why didn’t they go for some kind of service ensures citizenship, send them to the worst areas like Stalingrad. Still awful but then might have helped the war going on.

    You know what, I don’t need to give Hitler tips.

      It’s because of their ideology. To Hitler’s government, the extermination of the Jews as well as the mentally/physically challenged, the Roma, and all kinds of LGBTQ was seen as being as important as knocking France out of commission, bombing Britain to capitulation, or destroying the Soviet Union. The Holocaust wasn’t seen as some side project, it was an actual war goal and taken as seriously as anything else in the war.

      Don’t look for it to make sense, little of Nazi ideology makes sense.
