whether you support amnesty or want people to stay who you think are good people, you have to be concerneddeder issues here, which is if it doesn't matter what congress says, if it doesn't matter what laws congress establishes but the president and the administration can just ignore it and let people stay, under the new policy, if you come in on a tourist sleazy and go to disneyland and never leaf, you're never going to be deported. >> suarez: angela kelly, was palm beach within his rights to do what he did? >> absolutely, look, the president, the department of music, the department of justice, what they announced is right out of law enforcement 101. it's that you're setting priorities for who's to be removed, high-target removals still should be removed from the u.s. people who are involved with drugs with guns, with violence, people who have criminal records. of course we want prioritize those people and remove them all. but any law enforcement officer will tell you that you have to make priorities. you have to allocate resources wisely and that's simply what the administration has done. it
