Donald Trump is poised to initiate an unprecedented mass deportation on his first day in office. Karoline Leavitt, a spokesperson for Trump's transition team, revealed that the incoming president's advisors are crafting a slew of executive orders for him to enact immediately following his January 20 inauguration. Trump, who promised the American people he would remove 20 million undocumented immigrants from the U.
S. during his campaign, has his team affirming his commitment to begin this process upon assuming the presidency. "On day one he's going to open the largest deportation of illegal immigrants in American history," Leavitt declared on Fox News.
Trump has referenced the 1954 Eisenhower-era operation that deported a million Mexican nationals in a large-scale roundup by border and local law enforcement. In related news, Trump's election win has triggered a surge of Americans considering relocation to Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris has come under scrutiny for allegedly spending a significant sum on a set for her 'Call Her Daddy' interview.
The 'Saturday Night Live' cast made a direct appeal to Trump in a candid post-election episode opener, reports the Mirror US . The president-elect expressed that he would have "no problem" using the military to detain undocumented migrants, beginning with the National Guard, CNN reported. He clarified, "when we talk military, generally speaking, I talk National Guard.
" Trump has also previously mentioned that he doesn't believe laws designed to prevent the military from acting against U. S. civilians would interfere with these detentions, stating, "These aren't civilians," regarding the migrants.
"These are people that aren't legally in our country. This is an invasion of our country." He aims to re-establish the Remain in Mexico policy, which mandates that migrants wait in Mexico while their asylum bids are under evaluation before attending their U.
S. court appointments for outcomes. Anticipated actions on Trump's inaugural day include executive orders to hasten fracking and drilling, alongside overturning directives implemented by President Biden, per Leavitts comments.
"This man is already working around the clock," Leavitt noted concerning Trump. Meanwhile, with Trump's electoral triumph, the fate of U.S.
backing for Ukraine hangs in balance, as Whitehall officials recognize they are "considering and planning lots of different scenarios" for Ukraine , a Cabinet minister acknowledged. When asked about the UK's strategy if the US withdraws under Mr. Trump, Chief Secretary to the Treasury Darren Jones informed Sky News: "Officials will be considering and planning lots of different scenarios - as they would do under any administration - to make sure that the UK is in the strongest possible position.
