President Donald Trump said that some recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) amnesty are “hardened criminals” as the Supreme Court heard arguments in case Trump’s administration has made to try to get rid of the program.

“Many of the people in DACA, no longer very young, are far from ‘angels.’ Some are very tough, hardened criminals,” Trump said in a statement early Nov. 12.
