Take Back Your Huddled Masses

The Great Deporter is at it hammer and tongs this month.
US immigration officials are planning a month-long series of raids in May and June to deport hundreds of Central American mothers and children found to have entered the country illegally, according to sources and an internal document seen by Reuters.

The operation would likely be the largest deportation sweep targeting immigrant families by the administration of Barack Obama this year after a similar drive over two days in January.

[...]

Federal resources were strained in 2014 under a wave of illegal migrants crossing the US-Mexico border, especially women and children fleeing violence in Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala.

[...]

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has now told field offices nationwide to launch a 30-day “surge” of arrests focused on mothers and children who have already been told to leave the United States, the document seen by Reuters said. The operation would also cover minors who have entered the country without a guardian and since turned 18 years of age, the document said. Two sources confirmed the details of the plan.

[...]

Obama has said criminal immigrants and those who have recently entered the country are priorities for deportation.

[...]

The planned new raids are in response to a renewed surge of illegal entries by Central American women traveling with their children.

  
The totally vulnerable.

The great humanitarian country of the United States of America - fighting human rights violators all over the globe, and women with children fleeing them.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
