Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump used his joint address to Congress on Tuesday to call attention to crimes committed by undocumented immigrants -- inviting guests affected by such crimes and describing a new office he has ordered created to report them.

Trump invited three guests whose family members were allegedly killed by criminals living in the US illegally, acknowledging them individually as he described his recently ordered crime reporting initiative.

As mandated by Trump's executive order signed last month, the Department of Homeland Security announced in implementation guidance issued last week that it would create the Victims Of Immigration Crime Engagement office, or VOICE.

"I have ordered the Department of Homeland Security to create an office to serve American victims," Trump said Tuesday night. "We are providing a voice to those who have been ignored by our media, and silenced by special interests."

1. What about victim's of crimes done by white supremacist terrorists?

What about that ? What about that?

NADA that's what

2. White Privilege Is Having Such Crimes Dismissed as One-offs...

...while if you are racial or religious minority, you are defined by the worst examples that society has to offer.

10. He has ordered them off the federal watch lists

so our law enforcement agencies are not monitoring them.

He knows exactly who elected him president and he enjoys the benefits of divisive hatred.

3. We need a real voice: Victims OF ICE. . . . nt

4. I have no idea what this new agency will entail

If it is a victims' advocacy thing, couldn't it have just been written into one of the rules? It sounds so vague. What will it involve? It doesn't sound very good....

5. What about all the hate crimes committed in his name?

Have anything to say about that, you orange tub of fuck?

6. There a hell of a lot more crimes by assaulting husbands with access to guns, white drug addicts

trying to support their habits, and white terrorists that hate anyone that isn't. Somehow in his mind, they don't need a mention.

8. I posted this earlier yesterday

AMAZING while Standing Rock was being made into a war zone on the Indigenous People

and having no room at the table for justice our for the rights of being classified as a human beings on the reservation this hypocrite was writing a fascists letter to create more paranoia and an office to serve American victims.

Go f***ing figure, so maybe dip sh*t you should have started at Standing Rock with that ND governor and what he did to the Lakota.

But, nope you and your band of fascists want to create a place for people to make up "trumped" up claims on anyone that your hypocrites deemed as illegal. And to create a secret police force with a f***ing building at taxpayers expense to spread more terror.

Do I got that right?


Hey dumpster look in the mirror, your a f***ing immigrant


Again FU and the horse you road in on

9. Divide and conquer

Trump is making immigrants "THE OTHER".

Watch as he ramps this up. Watch as people of color, people who have difficulty speaking English clearly, as people with different hair, different clothing, etc. watch as they become targets of hate.

It's just what Hitler did with the Jews, the Gypsies, the Gays...he made them CRIMINALS and that made them easier to kill.

11. Hiring freeze

Who are the employees going to be in his new federal agency, since he enacted a federal hiring freeze last month?? Are these going to be "IMAGINARY" people, or Real people??

[Vinca]

12. How about a department for people shot by the 300 million guns in this country?

Guess not since they'd need hundreds of employees and a new building to house it.
