Senator offers simple solution to U.S. citizens caught up in immigration raids * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh
U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala.
President Donald Trump’s agenda to secure America’s borders and deport illegal aliens, especially criminal illegal aliens, is off to a roaring start during his first few months in office.
Officials report about 47,000 illegals have been deported each month, so far.
And the numbers of those breaking into the nation, especially across the southern border, have plunged to only a fraction of what they were when Joe Biden essentially declared the borders open, inviting millions to come illegally.
But few law enforcement campaigns are perfect, and one dealing with hundreds of thousands of people will have mistakes.
In fact, there have been occasions where U.S. citizens have been caught up in immigration raids. Federal authorities work to sort those situations out.
But one senator has offered a very succinct solution for those concerned about being rounded up.
“Don’t hang around illegals.”
Senator, do you care if US citizens accidentally get detained in ICE raids?

The Gateway Pundit explained Sen. Tommy Tuberville was “confronted” with the question.
It was Migrant Insider editor Pablo Manriquez who asked, “Do you care if U.S. citizens accidentally get detained in ICE raids?”
Tuberville confirmed “mistakes” will happen.
“But, again, as long as we take care of it the right way, understand that they are citizens, let them go, but again, if you’re going to be hanging around people that are not citizens of this country, some things like that are going to probably happen,” he said.
Pushed by Manriquez for more, Tuberville said, “Don’t hang around illegals. Bottom line because President Trump has said, ‘We’re going to go after you,’ and at the end of the day, if you’re in the wrong place at the wrong time, something bad could happen.”
