Trump confirms plan to declare national emergency, use military for mass deportations

[Coventina]

President-elect Donald Trump on Monday confirmed he would declare a national emergency to carry out his campaign promise of mass deportations of migrants living in the U.S. without legal permission.

Overnight, Trump responded to a social media post from Judicial Watch's Tom Fitton, who said earlier this month there are reports the incoming administration is preparing such a declaration and to use "military assets" to deport the migrants.

"TRUE!!!" Trump wrote.

Trump pledged to get started on mass deportations as soon as he enters office.

"On Day 1, I will launch the largest deportation program in American history to get the criminals out," he said during a rally at Madison Square Garden in the closing days of the presidential race. "I will rescue every city and town that has been invaded and conquered, and we will put these vicious and bloodthirsty criminals in jail, then kick them the hell out of our country as fast as possible."

Already, he's tapped several immigration hard-liners to serve in key Cabinet positions. South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem was picked to be homeland security secretary, pending Senate confirmation. Former Acting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Tom Homan was named "border czar."

2. What a surprise.

3. So what can be done?

Can he be sued? Wasn't there some emergency declaration over the wall that was stopped by the court?

4. Ruse

I think the ‘mass deportations’ might be a ruse. He’ll demand blue state governors to deploy National Guard. When they refuse, he’ll sue them. If he loses the lawsuits, the SC will overturn them.
Then Trump will be able to summons all of the National Guard, to quell dissent when he cuts SS and Medicare.

7. Get ready for plenty of "we had to burn the city to rescue it" explanations on Fox Truth

2 months of freedom left.

9. Once again: take everything he said on the campaign trail as a literal roadmap

There are still DU'ers here who think what he's saying is all a show to his base, and cling to a hope that the logistics, cost, or economic damage will dissuade him from doing everything he said.

Nothing will dissuade him and his toadies from going full Project 2025.
