## Intelligence Brief
President Donald Trump stated on Monday that his administration's mass deportation agenda has not put the same pressure on migrant workers as it has on people he described as murderers and drug dealers. According to Fox News, Trump made the remarks during a phone call with C-SPAN when asked if law-abiding individuals who pay taxes and have lived in the U.S. for a long time should be deported alongside migrants who committed serious offenses.

It's a tough thing." Fox News noted that Trump floated the idea of working with Democrats on a deal for immigrants living illegally in the U.S. for more than a decade, following Republican losses in both chambers of Congress in the midterm elections. However, Trump stated at a White House press briefing on Monday that "there won’t be amnesty" and that his policy "hasn’t changed."

Trump stated that Iran "would like to make a deal, and we'll find out whether or not that'll happen."
