Boy, talk about a false premise. Not everyone that Biden let in has to go home. A non-trivial number of them will be qualified to stay in the United States based on the existing laws that were passed by Congress, regardless of whether Stephen Miller or Donald Trump believe in those laws.

Oh, okay.
So the ones who applied for amnesty and have their requests granted to can stay.

What about everybody else?

And if your argument that deportation is necessary is founded principally on reducing the risk to Americans of criminal activity by illegal aliens, then the proper policy would be to prioritize those folks who actually pose such a risk, and not the mom of a breastfeeding infant who has no criminal record. Especially if your Administration spent a not inconsiderable amount of time arguing that it was going to focus on criminals that posed a danger, and not random people.

And herein lies the rub: are you arguing that if law enforcement encounters someone who they know is on the deportation list they're supposed to ignore them because there's someone else out there to catch? Is there a provision in the law that says "This one's not enough of a criminal, go after the badder guy over there"?

If your answer is "prosecutorial outreach" I don't think that applies here.
