Trump Seeks Approval to Deport American Citizens, Repeat Violent Offenders Abroad for Small Fee
Jan 27, 2025, 11:16 PM
President Donald Trump has announced his intention to seek approval to deport repeat violent offenders from the United States, including American citizens, to foreign countries. Speaking at a House Republican Conference dinner during a GOP retreat at his Doral, Florida golf resort, Trump proposed that these offenders could be maintained abroad for a 'very small fee,' contrasting this with the high costs of incarceration in U.S. jails, including those run by private prison companies. He emphasized his desire to remove such individuals from the country, likening the situation to the movie 'Con Air' but noting that the criminals in question are real and not actors. Trump's comments also touched on his administration's efforts to deport undocumented immigrants, suggesting a broader policy of expelling those he deems undesirable from the U.S.
