are supposed to be unwitting but that's exactly what happened with the immigrations and customs enforcement agency and it happened because president of trump tweeted about this he talked about it in june saying that millions of people would be rounded up in raids now after postponing that he says about 2000 people with final deportation orders in the united states will be targeted in major cities across the u.s. cities like los angeles chicago new york houston places where there are large hispanic populations and not coincidentally perhaps places that have a concentration of democratic voters not in the rural areas where trump voters tend to be so the customs enforcement agency is going after these people we haven't seen a lot of video evidence of that happening so far but the administration says that will happen today and the president's head of immigrations and customs enforcement was on one of the morning talk shows this is what he had to say about that. i have a lot of respect for our ice officers they're loyal they're compassionate but they have a job to do and it's a tough one and made a lot

although this is the 2nd attempt that ice agents immigration and customs enforcement agency agents will try this this weekend accordingly to the president everybody else on sunday why do they make this public because the word is out anyway and everybody was expecting it to happen anyway so now what happens on sunday what will happen is that ice agents will target 10 cities major cities denver los angeles miami chicago new york atlanta and that there will be going after the families immigrants they have identified as being in the country illegal and they will be detained and deported what's a massive operation that you outlined there stuff on human rights activists say that many families that might be affected didn't even have a proper court hearing so is the administration bending the law in their fight against illegal migration. i wouldn't go that far what they're referring to is the so-called coal lever olds that means immigrants who are for example at the scene they're not directly targeted in those raids those are according to the administration only illegal immigrants who heads. a

immigration and customs enforcement agency also known as ice in the united states did abuse helen humphrey reports on that. like most parents do as a group yet as lopez couldn't imagine being forced to leave her children but as an undocumented immigrant her greatest fear is a realistic one rose of violence in el salvador 13 years ago now she's facing deportation her 3 children were born here in the u.s. our youngest son john has down's syndrome and she's worried he wouldn't receive the same care in el salvador and so for the past 8 months she's been seeking sanctuary here at cedar lane unitarian universalist church in washington d.c. living apart from her children during the week so they can still attend their school. it was hard telling my kids that i had to seek refuge in a church i couldn't go back to my country and leave them here and i also couldn't take them because i would be putting them in danger they could be killed criminal gangs there recruit children from the age of 10. and if they refuse you know. raises deportation was ordered off to she missed an immigration hearing when i

>> this is the second attempt that ice agents and custom enforcement agencies will try this weekend accordingo the president. why do they make this public? the word is out anyway and everyone was expecting it, so now it happens on sunday. ice agents will target sitters -- ice agents will target cities and they will be going after families, immigrants they have identified as being in the country illegally and they will be detained and deported. >> that is a massive operation you outlined. they say many families that might be affected to not have a proper court hearing, so is the administration bending the law in their fight against illegal migration? >> i would not go that far. they are referring to the collaterals. that means immigrants at the scene not directly targeted. those are only illegal immigrants who had due process and were notified that they have to lead the country in february of this year and who are still here. the major concern for advocates is that collateral arrests will happen and immigrants not directly targeted will fund sells in deportation back to mexico wherever they ar

cnn has obtained documents showing that the fbi and the immigration and customs enforcement agency, i.c.elly access and scan your driver's license picture and get other information about you using technology that's the stuff of hollywood. it's the kind of sophisticated technology that people love to see in movies and cop shows. facial recognition searches, used to catch criminals and terrorists. but tonight there's new information that law enforcement, including the immigration and customs enforcement agency, or i.c.e., can use facial recognition technology on our driver's license photos to match them up with photos being used in criminal or immigration cases. the fbi's use of driver's license pictures has been previously reported. but harrison rudolph of the center on privacy and technology at georgetown law school which obtained documents on the searches, says i.c.e.'s use of the photos wasn't previously known and drivers generally don't know that i.c.e. can use their pictures sometimes by simply contacting their state's dmv. >> in no state has a state gone and actually voted on giving

cities are preparing for agents from the immigrations and customs enforcement agency, commonly knowni.c.e., to round up immigrants who have missed a court appearance or who have been ordered removed from the united states. we begin with mark morgan, the acting commission of cb.p., which in forces immigration law and controls the u.s. border. good morning. >> good morning. thank you for having me. >> brennan: i understand you're at c.b. p., and you worked previously at i.c.e. the president said those arrested today will be put in prison or sent back. what can you tell us about how many people will be rounded up and where they're go? >> the numbers are going to be left up to i.c.e., and i really want to stay away from the operational details specifically, and focusing on the numbers and cities, but what we need to do, part of this narrative is we need to be intellectually honest when we're going forward with this. the individuals that i.c.e. goes after, and they do this every single day, are not individuals that are here undocumented. they're individuals that are here illegally. in thi

administration and of course now we have those deportation raids conducted by the immigration and customs enforcement agency the ice agents in that dreaded knock at their door and i spoke to one woman who is an undocumented immigrant and she's so fearful of being separated from her american born children that she felt she had no choice but to seek refuge in a church has our report. like most parents who is a good yet is lopez couldn't imagine being forced to leave the children but as an undocumented immigrant a great his fear is a realistic one rosa fled violence in el salvador 13 years ago now she's facing deportation both 3 children were born in a little less youngest son john has down's syndrome and she's worried he wouldn't receive the same care in el salvador and so over the past 8 months she's been seeking sanctuary at cedar lane unitarian universalist church in washington d.c. living apart from her children during the week so they can still attend their school. in the godley under the hood it was hard telling my kids that i had to seek refuge and if i couldn't go back to my country and leave them her

so we see demonstrated there i mean that fear of being raided by the customs enforcement agency an immigration enforcement agency tell us a little bit more about these raids they're going on well trump had announced that there was going to be massive raids and starting on sunday he built this up which cause a lot of fear that immigration their community of immigrants in the united states i think that was probably part of the goal was to create this sense that america is no longer welcome to people who immigrate illegally or even legally a some and some cases but actually activists who had prepared for these raids to show immigrants their rights to teach them how to deal with a raid that could violate their rights they were a little bit surprised that there were so few actually and what you notice is that donald trump is embracing this idea of the deporter in chief but actually deportations haven't significantly increased they haven't moved anywhere since obama was president there was a big decrease after bush left office but obama was known as the poor in chief and he was always trying to shed

that's exactly what the president did last month when he said that the immigrations and customs enforcement agency would be raiding at that time he said millions of people then he postponed the raids saying he wanted to give democrats time to change the laws and then he announced that it would happen today on sunday in the united states but the numbers have changed now we're talking about 2000 people at major cities across the u.s. cities like new york chicago los angeles and houston notably all democratic voting areas not the kind of rural areas where agricultural undocumented workers tend to be those are areas that do tend to vote for president trump. the president announced these raids but so far we're hearing very little of them seeing very little video evidence they were apparently some ice raids in new york yesterday according to the mayor there bill de blasio those people were turned away and that is because local mayors who have opposed the president's program have warned people that if those ice agents don't come in with a specific warrant that allows them to enter your property you can t
