Obama’s ICE Director Claims Deportations of Illegal Criminals Went up Under Her

‘With respect to detention and those things, we were guided by the law’

RUSH EXCERPT:
SALDANA: "The law is the law. So with respect to detention and those things, we were guided by the law.. We were not guided by people’s emotions or feelings or thoughts. We were guided by the law. We had priorities, just like this executive order has priorities. We did not exempt people, I guess, one could look at it that way, one could say that about the executive order, as well. We focused on serious criminals. In fact, our numbers went substantially up with respect to the portion of people that we were removing or putting in removal proceedings, being convicted criminals or people who are not in the country legally and there is a reason to remove them. Again, I am weighing is a manager, resources versus threat to public safety."
