WASHINGTON, Feb 3 – President Donald Trump is set to test the limits of his immigration crackdown by invoking a wartime law to deport immigrants alleged to be gang members without court hearings, a broad authority that could supercharge his mass deportation push and potentially sweep in people not charged with crimes.

After taking office, Trump ordered military and immigration officials to be ready by Feb. 3 to implement the 1798 Alien Enemies Act, last used to justify internment camps for people of Japanese, German and Italian descent during World War Two. The move – which would almost certainly face legal challenges – could allow him to bypass due process rights and rapidly remove migrants.

CHICAGO—President Trump’s aggressive deportation agenda descended upon Chicago’s “Mexico of the Midwest” precisely one week after his inauguration.

But Little Village—a predominantly Hispanic enclave of around 70,000 on the city’s southwest side—stood ready to thwart the government.

When U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorities in dark SUVs arrived on the streets that day, another operation began. The community launched its own counteraction: an urgent system of text chains, social-media groups and calls between local leaders.

The race-obsessives denounce Trump’s deportations.

The progressive response to President Trump’s deportations is just getting under way, and it’s already dumb and hysterical.

Tom Homan wants to be Bull Connor, don’t you know? (So opined Princeton University’s Eddie Glaude.) According to Nicole Wallace and Joy Reid, we are potentially headed down the path of another Holocaust. “Similarities to what happened in Germany, and what’s happening now in America are just undeniable,” Reid said the other day.

On Sunday, CBS News’ Margaret Brennan tried to get one over on Vice President J.D. Vance, badgering him about immigration and claiming “this is a country founded by immigrants.” But this narrative isn’t just inaccurate, it’s a calculated lie intentionally pushed to justify radical open border policies that threaten to dismantle the very country our Founders built.

Vance held his own, refuting the baseless claim by noting the country was founded “by some immigrants and some settlers” and that such a founding is not a “get-out-of-jail” free card for having the “dumbest immigration policy in the world.”

And Vance is right.

The White House claimed victory in a showdown with Colombia over accepting flights of deported migrants from the U.S. on Sunday, hours after President Donald Trump threatened steep tariffs on imports and other sanctions on the longtime U.S. partner.

Long close partners in anti-narcotics efforts, the U.S. and Colombia clashed Sunday over the deportation of migrants and imposed tariffs on each other’s goods in a show of what other countries could face if they intervene in the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials have been directed by Trump officials to aggressively ramp up the number of people they arrest, from a few hundred per day to at least 1,200 to 1,500, because the president has been disappointed with the results of his mass deportation campaign so far, according to four people with knowledge of the briefings.

The quotas were outlined Saturday in a call with senior ICE officials, who were told that each of the agency’s field offices should make 75 arrests per day and managers would be held accountable for missing those targets. The four people spoke on the condition of anonymity to disclose internal briefings.

Vice President J.D. Vance, a Catholic man, is disappointed that a group of U.S. Bishops are speaking out over a new order allowing immigration enforcement to conduct raids at churches.

President Donald Trump issued an executive order that removes protections from sensitive places like churches and schools.

This allow Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other law enforcement officials can conduct raids and apprehend undocumented immigrants from those venues.
