Trump's second presidential term begins with an aggressive focus on immigration enforcement, prioritizing swift actions to demonstrate commitment to his supporters. Within the first week, a series of coordinated nationwide raids led by immigration and customs enforcement resulted in the arrest of thousands of illegal immigrants, particularly targeting the most dangerous offenders such as gang members and drug traffickers. The strategy also involved raids in cities known for their sanctuary policies, reflecting a significant shift in approach compared to previous administrations. This robust action raises questions about the Biden administration's previous immigration policies, suggesting a failure to remove violent illegal aliens and indicating a potential intentional leniency towards such offenders.
