America's media has reported that immigration officials will begin raiding and deporting illegal immigrants beginning this Sunday.
The surprise operation comes after U.S. President Donald Trump promised to start deporting "millions of illegal aliens" from the United States.
The reports quoted USA Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Acting Director Ken Cuccinelli who said they would first target 1 million immigrants who have been issued final deportation orders.
US senior journalist Mart Ford saying Trump was using the immigration issue to cling to power.
"Trump isn't actually trying to solve an immigration problem. The president lacks the ability to remove all or most undocumented people in the country, and he lacks the desire to normalize their legal status in any meaningful way." Ford said. "His legislative proposals are too extreme even for members of his own party, while his negotiating tactics are ultimatums at best, hostage-taking at worst. This is all about raw political survival: terrorizing those whom his supporters hate, so that he remains the one they love."
