Trump to Deploy Military for Deportation of 11 Million Migrants
Dec 12, 2024, 07:30 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has announced plans to utilize the U.S. military to the fullest extent permitted by law to support mass deportations of undocumented immigrants. Trump considers the influx of undocumented immigrants as an 'invasion' of the country, justifying his intention to deploy the National Guard and local law enforcement to aid in these efforts. He aims to deport 11 million migrants quickly, potentially building new detention facilities, and has threatened to impose substantial tariffs on countries that refuse to accept their deported citizens. Trump's strategy includes targeting criminals, human traffickers, drug cartels, and those who have reentered the U.S. illegally after deportation, as well as addressing visa overstays. His plan has sparked debate over its legality and the potential economic impact, with critics citing concerns about the cost and the humanitarian implications of such mass deportations. Trump's immigration mandate seeks to overcome Democratic resistance by promoting accountability and strong cooperation with law enforcement, addressing the sanctuary cities issue, and ensuring that the massive undertaking of deportations is carried out with leadership and fidelity to the rule of law.
