The Trump Administration is busy cleaning up the immigration mess left by the Biden regime, but that isn't fast enough for Stephen Miller. Good for him!

WASHINGTON — The architect of President Trump’s immigration policy is pushing ICE to dramatically ramp up the arrests — calling for 3,000 illegal migrants to be picked up per day.

White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem put out the figure in a meeting with Immigration and Customs Enforcement leaders last week, Axios reported. 

Trump’s goal of achieving the largest deportation operation in history has so far largely been focused on illegal migrants who have criminal records or deportation orders — but the push from Noem and Miller, two of the top immigration hawks in the president’s circle, suggests that the Trump administration wants to go even harder. 

Trump’s border czar Tom Homan said at the end of April that 139,000 people had been deported in the first three months of the administration, and even more had been detained. 


In January, the Trump administration gave ICE a quota of 1,800 arrests per day, but Miller reportedly urged officials at the May 21 meeting to increase arrests and deportations even more.

At that rate, 650,000 more migrants would be picked up this year. An estimated 8 million people illegally crossed the southern border during the Biden administration.
