Hey-I found nearly a thousand "illegals" for Republicans to deport.


About 900 undocumented immigrants known as "DREAMers" are currently serving in the United States military, the Pentagon says .
Those service members — all of whom have health care or language skills the U.S. military considers vital — would be forced to leave the military under Trump policy .
The program waives certain citizenship requirements for green card holders, refugees and DACA recipients with skills that the military considers essential to the national interest.
The group includes doctors, nurses, and service members with proficiency in a language considered to be of strategic importance. Spanish is not one of those languages, but Arabic, Russian, Chinese and Korean are.

you would have seen articles about the 1500 or so ex military people that have been deported back to Mexico living along the Border.

Worst thing is,these same folks are being recruited by the Crime Cartels because of there training and ability to train others.
