Trump administration aims to expand fast-track deportations across US, legal fight expected

Exclusive: Customs and Border Protection rebuked by watchdog, whistleblowers for 'failure' to collect DNA from migrant detainees
A top government watchdog has joined whistleblowers in rebuking U.S. Customs and Border Protection for allegedly failing to collect DNA from detained migrants so the samples could be checked against an FBI database for violent crimes. The whistleblowers specifically alleged that the DNA pilot program was put on hold during the Obama administration, and efforts to implement it under the Trump administration were derailed.
Meanwhile, a legal battle is expected as the Trump administration on Monday announced plans to expand fast-track deportations. Officials are extending the power immigration officers have to deport migrants before they appear at court, a move the White House said could mean less time for migrants in detention while cases wind their way through the legal system. The American Civil Liberties Union and American Immigration Council promised that they would sue to block the policy that is expected to begin Tuesday.
