It is against the current policy of the government, but Department of Homeland Security can do it. You need to find a competent immigration law attorney as soon as possible to try stopping your son's deportation, because once he is deported, it will be largely impossible to bring him back in the next 10 years.

But if he is in the US unlawfully, he is subject to removal/deportation just for being in the US unlawfully.

If he does not have any papers and is here illegally, ICE can arrest him and take him into custody.
