President Donald Trump’s administration has lined the White House driveway with large posters featuring mugshots of migrants as the president broadcasts his immigration crackdown, according to a report.

In a clear view for the press, the "roughly 100" posters were placed along "Pebble Beach," the north grounds of the White House where TV crews broadcast from, Axios reported Monday.

Each poster features the word “ARRESTED” above an immigrant’s mugshot and the crime they are accused of committing. Instead of names, the posters say “illegal alien” under each mugshot.

The hope is that the posters are visible behind the journalists as they broadcast from that spot, a White House official told Axios. Photos, obtained by the news website, show posters with immigrants who allegedly committed “murder," "sexual offense against child," "rape,” and “distribution of fentanyl”.

4. How about photos of the cop killers & attackers tRump pardoned?

[Leghorn21]

11. YES PLEASE -- and how about this pack of predators as well?

[forgotmylogin]

6. So I trust they've done *actual* research into these potential crimes...

9. Undoubtedly made up

7. Groundskeeping

8. This brings up an important justice issue.

Publishing mugshots should be illegal until a person is convicted. I can’t imagine what it is like for an innocent person to watch their life fail apart because of a phony allegation and then to have their picture open them up to public scorn.
No wonder so many right wingers believe that anyone who is accused is guilty.

10. So, they are only arresting immigrants? Guess real criminals who are citiens are safe.

As long as they drink the orange Kool-Aid with lots of ICE.

12. Well that's a way to bring up your approval rating

What no picture category for sexual assault at Bergdorf Goodman department store in New York City?

[Hekate]

13. Are there photos of the 1 yo and 2 yo babies? The 4 yo with metastatic cancer? The young PhD students?

Asking for a friend.

15. Put Trump's pic up. Convicted Sexual Abuser, thiry-four felonies. I won't tell.

[Vinca]

16. Where's the mug shot of the felon 34 times over? Surely he's got the best mug shot in the history

of mug shots and should be featured on the lawn with them.
