President Trump is furious over his administration’s decision to capitulate to the radical left and corporate media on deportations after a series of ICE-involved shootings.

As The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson reported, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were yesterday directed to stop pulling over vehicles driven by illegal aliens. The Daily Mail confirmed that DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin created the directive.

This all came after fatal ICE-involved shootings in Maine and Texas.

In a long and passionate post on Truth Social, Trump argues that caving now will play right into the criminal aliens’ hands and that “it won’t happen on my watch.”

Here is his full post:

The men and women of ICE are doing a GREAT job, one that has to be done. CRIME IS WAY DOWN IN AMERICA, in many cases with numbers that haven’t been seen in decades. The Open Border Policy of Sleepy Joe Biden allowed 25,000,000 people to pour into our Country, unchecked and unvetted. Many were Criminals, and we have to get them out.

In order to do this, we must be strong, tough, and smart, and we CANNOT give up one of I.C.E.’s most important and effective crime-fighting tools, THE TRAFFIC STOP!

Once we do, we are playing right into the criminal’s hands. The Radical Left Dumocrats would like to see this done, but it won’t happen on my watch. I.C.E., be judicious, fair, and smart, and go back and do your very important job.

Keep those Crime Stat Records coming! Remember, you are loved and respected in America. Thank you for your attention to this matter! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

It’s not clear at the moment whether Trump has reinstated the policy or is just blowing off steam.

On Monday, 26-year-old Joan Sebastian Guerrero of Colombia attempted to run over ICE agents during a targeted enforcement operation on Monday morning, and he was fatally shot, The Gateway Pundit reported.

In Texas, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was fatally shot after ramming an ICE vehicle, ignoring commands, and trying to run over an agent last week.

A witness to the shooting in Maine confirmed on Monday that the vehicle was “put into drive and was trying to hit the ICE officer” before shots were fired, killing the suspect.

UPDATE: Trump has officially overturned Mullin’s order.
