Trump launches mass deportation plan for 11 million migrants
President Trump is sending a strong and clear message to everyone: “If you enter the United States illegally, you will suffer the consequences,” warned White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt.
The spokeswoman announced the initial figures for the “largest” deportation operation in the history of the country, where nearly 11 million undocumented immigrants are believed to live.
Trump calls it an “invasion”. Immigration is one of his obsessions. He demonstrated this during his US election tour by calling border residents “savages, animals and criminals”.
The mass deportation plan is already underway: over half a thousand “illegals” have been arrested and several hundred deported from the country in military aircraft in just four days.
“Promises made. Promises kept,” boasted Karolina Leavitt, who on Friday shared images of the detainees, chains around their feet and waists, lined up to board one of the flights chartered for removals from the United States.
