Immigration chief can't guarantee parents and children won't be separated during ICE raids

Acting director of US Citizenship and Immigration Services Ken Cuccinelli won’t rule out separating parents from children in newly launched ICE raids.

Cuccinelli made the talk show rounds Sunday, including a stop at CNN’s “State of the Union,” where he drove home the point that a freshly launched crackdown on undocumented immigrants will focus on residents the courts have decided should not be here.

“We’ve got compassionate loyal ICE agents who are just doing their job and it shows you how far we’ve fallen in that it’s become news they would actually deport people who have removal orders,” he told “State of the Union” host Jake Tapper.

But 50-year-old Edison, N.J., politico, who served as Virginia’s attorney general from 2010 to 2014, wouldn’t go so far as saying that more than 1 million people being targeted wouldn’t see their families separated.

“That would be an operational detail that I’m not going to comment on,” Cuccinelli said.

When pressed by Tapper, Cuccinelli doubled down on his claim, insisting details about possible family separation could jeopardize operations.
