(Credit: AP Photo/Alex Cossio) President Donald Trump’s administration has sent out a memo to his Capitol Hill supporters that makes it clear that, when it comes to the Dreamers targeted by his impending repeal of DACA, the president very much wants to deport them. According to the memo, “The Department of Homeland Security urges DACA recipients to use the time remaining on their work authorizations to prepare for and arrange their departure from the United States — including proactively seeking travel documentation — or to apply for other immigration benefits for which they may be eligible.” A spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security told CNN: “Of course we would encourage persons who are in the country illegally to depart voluntarily, or seek another form of immigration benefit for which they might qualify. No one has an entitlement to live in the United States illegally.” A report from McClatchy indicates that Trump was initially uncertain about how to handle DACA, as he was torn between his promises to show “heart” toward Dreamers and his vows to crack down on illegal immigration.
