Trump praises ICE raids in Mississippi, calls them 'a very good deterrent'
President Trump on Friday defended the raids carried out by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) this week in Mississippi, calling them "a very good deterrent."
Trump told reporters at the White House that the raids dissuade immigrants from entering and residing in the country illegally.
"I want people to know that if they come into the United States illegally, they're getting out. They're going to be brought out. And this serves as a very good deterrent," he said.
Around 300 detainees were released Thursday. ICE spokesman Bryan Cox told reporters they were "returned to the place where they were originally encountered."

Know what else would be a good deterrent? Jailing assholes like Trump who knowingly hire undocumented immigrants.
