Donald Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigrant criminals is in full swing days into his presidency, with some of his top officials celebrating at least eight arrests made so far in the Boston area.Vice President JD Vance said he’s “glad” that a Haitian gang member who told agents “(expletive) Trump, Biden forever!” is one of the illegal immigrants being deported.Fox News,
embedded with Boston-based members of ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations during the agency’s first raid across the region under the Trump administration, reported the Haitian had at least 17 criminal convictions.“An illegal alien with 17 criminal convictions really hates President Trump for sending him back to Haiti,” Vance said in an X post on Thursday. “He’s grateful to Biden for letting him come here. I’m glad we’re deporting him. Do you agree or would you like him as your neighbor?”Elon Musk, heading Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, responded: “Wow,” while Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt reacted in a separate post: “Bye bye!,” with a waving hand emoji.
