That’s a combo-platter.

ICE is bitching that Trump tipped off everyone that the raids were coming, so ICE couldn’t track them down.

Drudge is bitching that despite all the buildup, all they managed was 35.

The reality is that criminals are harder to catch and deport than it is to go and find immigrants who are trying to be part of the community and have families and children in school. Those are the ones Trump has been trying to deport to boost the numbers.

One of the things Obama did during his 8 years was try to focus deportation on people who are criminals, as opposed to those who merely overstayed visas - focus on real threats, as opposed to those subject to the broken immigration system.
