Where were they when women and children are dying making that journey?

Where were they when over 4,000 families making that journey died?

Historic record.

Where were they?

Not a word.

Now we're just trying to respond to what happened the last four years and keeping this country safe.

And we're arresting a lot of public safety threats to take them off the streets, which makes this country safer.

President Trump promised to make this country safe again, and that's what we're doing.

But my two and a half days up here, we made a lot of progress.

I think everybody agrees on the criminal and public safety threats.

They agree it's much safer and easier to arrest an alien in a facility than send a whole team out in the field that's going to draw anger.

Because now we've got to send a bunch of people to do something that could have been done by one or two people.

And I've said this for years.

I have no ill will to anybody.

in Minnesota, all the people I talk to.

We're never going to agree on everything.

We have different philosophies and different opinions on immigration, but we all agree this is a way to go to reduce safety, reduce crime, not reduce safety, reduce crime and increase safety for our operations.

More people in the jail means less people on the street.

It's simple math.

We will conduct targeted enforcement operations.
