Trump confirms immigration raids set for the weekend

US President Donald Trump confirmed Friday that agents of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency will launch raids across the country this weekend to round up thousands of undocumented migrants for deportation. “They came in illegally,” he told reporters at the White House.

“They are going to take people out and they are going to send them back to their country.” “It starts on Sunday and they’re going to take people out and they’re going to bring them back to their countries,” Trump told reporters at the White House. “Or they’re going to take criminals out, put them in prison, or put them in prison in the countries they came from.”

Trump said the raids would also target “people that came into our country, not through a process, that just walked over a line. They have to leave.”
