Following a Hispanic outreach meeting by the Trump campaign numerous media outlets began reporting that Donald Trump was changing his position on immigration, specifically deportation of illegal immigrants. The Trump campaign immediately rebuked the false media reports last night.

Senator Jeff Sessions appeared on Fox News this morning to continue asserting the campaign message that illegal border crossing will be halted, deportation of illegal aliens will be enforced and there is no substantive change to Donald Trump’s immigration position.

The media loves to use the term “deportation force” to manufacture an narrative of a new controversy.  However, there is already a federal agency called ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) who routinely arrest and deport illegal aliens.  Despite the media protestations to the contrary ‘deportation is not a new concept’, we have been deporting people for decades.
