The Trump administration this week threatened local officials with prosecution if they interfere with its planned immigration crackdown.

U.S. President Donald Trump's administration has directed prosecutors to investigate officials who resist immigration enforcement efforts, intensifying a sweeping crackdown that Trump launched the day he took office.

A memo from the acting deputy attorney general instructs officials to identify state and local laws and policies that “threaten to impede” the Trump administration's immigration efforts.

As president, Trump will likely have the final say in whether or not to grant Abbott’s request for a full reimbursement for Operation Lone Star.

Active-duty military personnel began arriving along the southern border Thursday evening after President Donald Trump declared a national emergency to address the immigration crisis.

U.S. officials say active duty military troops are arriving in El Paso, Texas, and in San Diego on Thursday evening

It's the first batch of troops deployed to the border following President Trump’s executive order demanding an immediate crackdown on immigration.
