Trump Vows Full Commitment to Mass Deportation Effort: Declaration of National Emergency and Military Role on the Horizon

President-elect Donald Trump confirmed, in one powerful word, that addressing the national emergency of rampant illegal immigration will involve deploying the country’s military.

Last week, Tom Fitton, President of Judicial Watch, posted on Truth Social, “Reports are the incoming @RealDonaldTrump administration prepared to declare a national emergency and will use military assets to reverse the Biden invasion through a mass deportation program.”

Trump's emphatic response on Monday morning was: “TRUE!!!”

According to NBC, Trump has emphasized his readiness to allocate whatever funds are necessary to execute his deportation strategy.

“It’s not a question of a price tag. It’s not — really, we have no choice. When people have killed and murdered, when drug lords have destroyed countries, and now they’re going to go back to those countries because they’re not staying here. There is no price tag,” he stated.

Trump also underscored that Americans “want to have borders” and are open to immigration, but only under lawful conditions. “They like people coming in, but they have to come in with love for the country. They have to come in legally.”

Additionally, Trump is expected to sign an executive order that would terminate a visa program permitting individuals from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to enter the United States, according to Politico.

“All that stuff is going to end very fast, almost immediately,” said Dan Stein from the Federation for American Immigration Reform.

It’s also anticipated that a memo from Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, which had previously slowed deportations, will be rescinded.

“That stuff’s going to end obviously, right away,” commented Mark Krikorian of the Center for Immigration Studies.

NBC, citing unnamed sources, reported that plans are being discussed to increase the number of Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention beds, doubling the current count of 41,000.

The strategy envisions holding illegal immigrants temporarily before sending them out of the country. Potential locations for new detention centers include Denver, Los Angeles, Miami, and Chicago, while existing or previously shuttered facilities could be expanded or reopened in New York City, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C., one source informed NBC.
