Yes, deportations are coming. Yes, they start Day One…
During an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins this week, incoming Border Czar Tom Homan reiterated that deportations of dangerous illegal immigrants will start on Day One of the new Trump Administration.
Collins asked Homan about Trump’s border agenda and how quick it will be implemented.
“Day one – ICE officers across the country will be out on the streets,” Homan answered, replying to the anchor’s question about when “mass deportations” would begin.
Homan stressed there are currently “safety threats” in communities all over the country.
“Right out of the gate — the president has made it clear, and I‘ve made it clear — the priority right out of the gates, is public safety threats and national security threats. And there’s plenty of them to find,” he insisted.
“I looked at the data under the Biden administration, the deportation of criminal aliens have decreased 74 percent,” Homan continued. “So, we have all those folks that the Biden administration failed to deport, plus you got this over ten million encounters on the southern border that came across.”
“So, the public safety threats are plenty, and it’s going to keep us busy,” Homan added.
Homan has been very outspoken about his plans to crack down on illegal migrants and has made it clear he will prosecute mayors of sanctuary cities who try to impede deportations.
