Trump Plans to Close Border, Enforce Travel Bans, and Initiate Mass Deportations on First Day
Jan 1, 2025, 04:37 PM
Donald Trump, set to be inaugurated as the 47th President of the United States on January 20, 2025, plans to sign executive orders before entering the White House, marking an unprecedented start to his administration. Trump has announced intentions to close the border and initiate mass deportations of illegal immigrants on his first day in office, with some advocating for these actions to start on January 21st and include travel bans. This move is part of a broader strategy to address what he describes as an unprecedented illegal immigration crisis, potentially including a national emergency declaration to expedite deportations. The plan includes empowering local law enforcement to act as immigration officers, deploying state troops if necessary, and constructing detention facilities near the Mexican border. Trump's approach has been criticized by some as extreme, while others see it as necessary for national security and securing borders.
