President-elect Donald Trump is preparing to implement a robust immigration strategy that includes mass deportations and the construction of detention camps for undocumented immigrants. Key allies have expressed confidence in Trump's approach, emphasizing a focus on border security and the enforcement of immigration laws. Tom Homan, appointed as Trump's Border Czar, has indicated that deportations will commence on the first day of the new administration. Homan's plans suggest a substantial operation, potentially involving the removal of one million undocumented immigrants annually. Various Republican lawmakers have criticized the Biden administration's border policies, claiming they have led to increased crime and security risks. The Trump administration's strategy aims to reverse these policies and restore what supporters describe as a secure border environment.
