Is the Trump administration's immigration crackdown working? | Inside Story
As soon as Donald Trump made his comeback to the White House early last year, he rushed to step up his crackdown on those who enter the country illegally. His administration soon started mass arrests and mass deportations. That's led to mass protests against Trump's immigration policies. Protesters are particularly venting their anger against Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, accusing them of using excessive force. And the state of Minnesota has become the epicentre of the anger against the crackdown in recent weeks. There have been at least three shootings there involving immigration agents just this month alone--two of them fatal. So, does this violent crackdown serve any real purpose?
