Oct 19, 2024, 12:50 AM

Former President Donald Trump has announced plans to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 if he is re-elected. This initiative, termed 'Operation Aurora,' aims to target and dismantle migrant criminal networks operating in the United States. Trump has pledged that migrants who are deported and then return to the country will face an automatic ten-year jail sentence without the possibility of parole. He emphasized the need for extreme measures, including the death penalty for migrants who kill Americans, to address Aurora's gang crisis and ensure the safety of American citizens. The plan will be implemented at the federal level.
