Trump administration sets new goal of 3,000 illegal immigrant arrests daily

The Trump administration has a new goal of 3,000 arrests of illegal immigrants daily, which was publicly confirmed by White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller.

"Under President Trump’s leadership, we are looking to set a goal of a minimum of 3,000 arrests for ICE every day," Miller told "Hannity" on Wednesday night, saying the number is going to keep getting bumped higher over time.

His response comes after an Axios report that Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Miller were said to be backing the 3,000 daily figure in a meeting last week at ICE headquarters.
