President-elect Donald Trump has indicated plans to utilize the U.S. military in a significant role for deportations of illegal immigrants, potentially marking the largest operation of its kind in history. In a recent interview with Time magazine, Trump suggested that the military would be involved in this effort, which has been supported by a coalition of 26 Republican governors. Tom Homan, the border czar, stated that the incoming administration plans to employ the military in a supportive capacity for deportation efforts. This announcement has raised concerns among migrants who have crossed the U.S.-Mexico border, with many expressing fear of imminent deportation as Trump prepares to take office next month. Additionally, Trump emphasized that the U.S. would not engage in business with countries that refuse to negotiate agreements for the repatriation of deported migrants.
