.@ICEgov Dir confirms that the deportation targets ARE moms, dads & grandmas "We shouldn't wait for them to become a criminal" he said.

The other subset of Illegal Immigration is UNLAWFUL PRESENCE. This is when someone comes in legally stays longer - NOT A CRIME. Civil issue.

Correct that it's civil. Incorrect that it's a "subset of 'Illegal immigration'"

Maybe I misunderstand? I know this very well. When a visa's over, the person is now deemed "illegal" but prosecution is in civil court only.

ICE sees it differently... ☹
