Trump just made an announcement on Twitter that ICE will start quickly deporting illegals next week that have “illicitly found their way into the United States”:
Next week ICE will begin the process of removing the millions of illegal aliens who have illicitly found their way into the United States. They will be removed as fast as they come in. Mexico, using their strong immigration laws, is doing a very good job of stopping people…….

….long before they get to our Southern Border. Guatemala is getting ready to sign a Safe-Third Agreement. The only ones who won’t do anything are the Democrats in Congress. They must vote to get rid of the loopholes, and fix asylum! If so, Border Crisis will end quickly!

If I’m reading this correctly, it sounds like Trump is changing his administration’s focus from just criminal illegals to all illegals. Or at least the ones who sneak across the border into the country. What else does “illicitly found their way into the United States” mean?
Until Trump releases more details, it’s hard to know exactly. But perhaps this announcement coincides with his new Border Czar appointment of Thomas Homan, and Trump is putting the word out so everyone knows what to expect.
Or maybe Trump is just trying to make liberals freak out on Twitter:

He’s preparing to launch the pogroms, folks.
Or he could be boasting and lying again about something that exists only in his fevered brain.
Either way we’re in dangerous territory. https://t.co/SuKN6VzDHU

This announcement is going to increase the pressure on @SpeakerPelosi to initiate impeachment proceedings. https://t.co/Ln4yy5qI2R
