Donald Trump's border czar has responded to Selena Gomez's sobbing video over deportations, saying the administration has 'no apologies' and that anyone who doesn't like it should take it up with Congress. 

The sweeping raids across the country have seen violent criminals rounded up and sent packing on government flights at break-neck speed. 

Liberals and celebrities are in shock, despite Trump promising for months that they would happen on his first day back in office. 

Among them is Gomez, who posted - then deleted - a tearful video to her followers. 

Spearheading the immigration overhaul is border czar Tom Homan, who issued a scathing response to Gomez's video meltdown. 

'If they don't like it, then go to Congress and change the law. We're going to do this operation without apology,' Homan told Fox News.

'We're gonna make our community safer... It is all for the good of this nation. And we're gonna keep going. No apologies. We're moving forward.' 

In her recording, the actress, 32, sobbed as she reacted to Trump's threat of mass deportations of all undocumented immigrants, which has ignited fears of family separations.

'All my people are getting attacked, the children. I don't understand. I'm so sorry, I wish I could do something but I can't. I don't know what to do. I'll try everything, I promise,' she said in the since-deleted recording on Monday.

The Wizards of Waverly Place alum captioned the post: 'I'm sorry [Mexican flag emoji].'

Homan denied that children are being targeted and doubled down that the administration is working to deport illegal migrants with criminal records.

'I don't think we've arrested any families. We've arrested public safety threats and national security threats, bottom-line,' he said. 

'President Trump won the election on this one issue - securing our border and saving lives. What happened on our southern border in the last four years is the biggest national security threat our county has seen, at least in my lifetime.' 

Gomez has since deleted the video after it did not sit well with social media users, who were quick to slam her for not using her reported net worth of $1.3 billion to take action herself.

Megyn Kelly also slammed the Emilia Perez actress for putting on a display of crocodile tears, claiming she wanted to push an agenda that her fans disagreed with.

'She deleted it after her fans taught her that the majority of the country stands behind these policies, but I'm sure she was shocked to get any blowback whatsoever,' Kelly said. 

'She’s unwell. Obviously, this is an unwell person… And by the way, anybody who takes their phone works up in tears and posts a video of themselves crying into their phone is sick. That's a sick person.

'Tears happen. They tend to happen privately. If they happen publicly. I think you should quickly move on and recover, but I don't understand the person who works it and tries to squeeze out more tears to make themselves look extra sad. “I'm really sad. I know I have hundreds of millions [followers], but I hate this country.”'

The Trump Administration has quickly moved to ramp up deportations and arrest illegal migrants who pose 'public safety threats ', specifically targeting sanctuary cities such as Chicago, San Francisco and San Jose - which bar cooperation between city police and immigration agents.

However, the president has reportedly been unhappy with the low number and has directed officials to meet higher detention quotas. 

He ordered ICE to raise the arrest numbers from a few hundred a day to at least 1,200 to 1,500, according to The Washington Post.

Trump ordered each of ICE's field offices to make 75 arrests per day, and managers would be held accountable for missing those targets.
