Trump Plans Mass Deportation, End to Birthright Citizenship Amid GOP Debate

Dec 11, 2024, 10:00 AM

President-elect Donald Trump is set to implement a stringent immigration policy, focusing on mass deportation and ending birthright citizenship. Trump's plan includes deporting all undocumented migrants who have entered the U.S. over the past decade, with families being deported together. His incoming border czar, Tom Homan, has warned sanctuary city mayors to cooperate or face prosecution. New York City Mayor Eric Adams has shown support for Trump's deportation plan. Meanwhile, San Diego has raised the bar for cooperation with immigration officials in anticipation of Trump's efforts. Trump's agenda has sparked a debate within the Republican Party, with some GOP senators attempting to moderate his more extreme proposals while maintaining party unity. Congressional Republicans, led by Speaker Johnson, are determined to secure the border and dismantle what they refer to as the 'deep state'.
