I wonder what the downstream effect of this diversion of law enforcement will be?

I'm assuming there will be less arrests, does that mean crime rates will go up? More cases will go unsolved?

With half of the DEA now focused on immigration, will that result in a flood of drugs coming into the US and a drop in prices?

Our totally inane and amateur government:

“This diversion is not a small part of many of these agencies. It includes one in five US marshals (650 of 3,892), one in five FBI agents (2,840 of 13,700), half of DEA agents (2,181 of 4,620), over two-thirds of the ATF (1,778 of 2,572), and nearly 90 percent of Homeland Security Investigations (6,198 of 7,100).”
