President Trump says he plans to declare a national emergency to carry out mass deportations using “military networks.”

Trump shared a post on Truth Social from Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton, saying the new administration is “prepared to declare a national emergency and will use military means to reverse the Biden invasion through a mass deportation program.”

President-elect he wrote monday morning, “TRUE!!!”

Trump-Vance transition spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt told the Sun: “President Trump will marshal all federal and state powers necessary to institute the largest deportation operation of illegal criminals, drug dealers and human traffickers in American history while keeping costs down for families. .”

“The American people re-elected President Trump by a resounding margin, giving him the mandate to implement campaign promises like deporting criminal immigrants and restoring our economic greatness. He will deliver,” Ms. Leavitt added.

Trump campaigned on a pledge to carry out a mass deportation operation after the country saw record levels of illegal border crossings during President Biden’s tenure.

Senator Rubio estimate in a May 2024 interview with NBC News, that there are as many as 30 million illegal immigrants living in the country. However, the Migration Policy Institute and the Department of Homeland Security put the number at around 11 million.

Shortly after Trump won the 2024 election, he nominated officials to serve in his administration who will help carry out his deportation plan, such as a former ICE director, Tom Homan.

trump card said Mr. Homan would be his “border czar” and in charge of the deportation operation.

Mr. Homan say he will first focus on illegal immigrants who are seen as criminals or threats to national security. In September, the New York Post reported ICE data shows there are more than 662,566 illegal immigrants with criminal records in the country, including more than 13,000 convicted felons.

IN A interview with Donald Trump Jr. on his Rumble show, Mr. Homan said Americans can expect “shock and awe” about how the deportation operation will be carried out.

“You’re going to see us take this country back, and as I’ve said before, it’s not just about the deportation operation. This is about saving children and securing the border. What are the results? Fewer overdose deaths, less sex trafficking, for God’s sake, one of the worst crimes around, fewer migrants dying,” Mr Homan said.

The polls have finder that most Americans support mass deportations. However, some surveys have found that they are not entirely involved in the blanket removal operation. Exit polls conducted by CNN found that 56 percent of respondents said they believed migrants should be given the opportunity to apply for legal status instead of facing removal.

A POLL from a liberal polling firm, Data for Progress, found that respondents tend to say there should be leniency for migrants who entered America without legal status under certain conditions, such as if they were brought to the country as children or if he had obtained a doctorate. from an American university.
