once they deport millions of illegal immigrants, I hope that she, Donald Trump and all of his followers are willing to do all of the undesirable jobs that pay next to nothing that they leave behind. I wonder how good are her apple picking skills in scorching heat. Or maybe working in a sweatshop 16 hours a day with no air conditioning would be more to her liking. those geniuses don't have a clue about what they voted for.

under the Biden-Harris administration, business has been very good for the cartels. Wide open borders and catch-and-release policies have convinced migrants that there is a strong probability that coming to the United States illegally will pay off. As a result, record numbers of migrants have decided to take the trek, and if need be, pay money to the cartels. By the Department of Homeland Security’s own reckoning, upwards of 80 percent of them engage smugglers to get them into the U.S. because the journey itself is inherently dangerous, and because these criminal syndicates do not deal kindly with migrants who don’t pay for their services. \n \nAccording to the Washington Post, “With revenue estimated at $4 billion to $12 billion a year, the smuggling of migrants has joined drugs and extortion as a top income stream for groups like Mexico’s Sinaloa and Jalisco cartels, increasing their economic clout throughout the hemisphere.” In other words, the cartels have a vested interest in maintaining that sort of revenue flow. If keeping a lid on things in the months leading up to an election that will determine the sort of border and immigration policies the United States has for the next four years, they may see slowing the flow as a prudent business decision. From the perspective of the cartels, a U.S. administration that releases or paroles in the majority of migrants encountered at our borders, and issues them work authorization documents, is likely to provide them with a steady stream of customers for their services.\n\nSOURCE, FAIR US org

ICE Acknowledges that 647,000 Aliens with Criminal Charges or Convictions are Roaming Freely in the U.S. \n \nFAIR Take | September 2024 \n \nIn a letter released Friday, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) acknowledged that 425,000 aliens released into the U.S. have criminal convictions and another 222,000 aliens have criminal charges pending. The letter, written by acting ICE Director Patrick Lechleitner, was released by Texas Congressman Tony Gonzales, who received it in response to requests for information he sent the agency six months ago. \n \nThe criminal aliens that Director Lechleitner referred to in his letter – the vast majority of whom are in the country illegally – are on ICE’s non-detained docket. That simply means even though the aliens are deportable, they were released into the U.S. (either by Customs and Border Protection or ICE) while their cases are pending. Their cases may be resolved in several ways, such as being approved for asylum or receiving a final order of removal by an immigration judge. However, until their cases are resolved, ICE tracks these non-detained aliens. The number of aliens on ICE’s non-detained docket has tripled since Fiscal Year (FY) 2018, growing from 2.6 million to 7.4 million in FY 2024. \n \nIn the letter sent to Rep. Gonzales, ICE made several shocking admissions about aliens released into the U.S. as part of the non-detained docket. Over 13,000 aliens have convictions for murder. Another 15,000 have convictions for sexual assault. If that weren’t bad enough, ICE’s letter contained even more detail: 56,000 aliens on the non-detained docket have convictions related to dangerous drugs, 62,000 have convictions for assault; 18,000 have convictions for larceny (theft); 14,000 have convictions for burglary; 13,000 have convictions for weapons offenses, and 2,500 have convictions for kidnapping.\nSOURCE, FAIR US org

Undocumented immigrant? No, illegal alien.

Yes, illigal immigrants should be deported. Not only because of criminal activities, but they siphon US resources intended to help US citizens. They came illegally, yet they are rewarded for their illigal activity.

If they genuinely want to stop illegal immigration, why not make life difficult for them, instead going nuts on arresting and deportation that cost a lot, maybe stop illegals to get a job, renting a room, buying a car, getting mortgage, having driving licenses would be more effective and would cost way less.

If Kmart Harris was president she would allow more illegal immigrants in this country to get in like it's Disney World for the next four years. People need to WAKE UP!!! Stop voting based off of IDENTITY!!!

You a holes here in the comments section don’t understand that they are ALL FOR LEGAL IMMIGRANTS like themselves not illegals who you all are paying for. Idiots.

Something trump supporters and everyone needs to understand is that there is NO application to just apply and come here legally! That’s why her family has been here for 20 something years. Only people that can “apply” are asylum seekers. Anyone from any other country there is no such application. There would only be an “application” is there was an immigration reform that would allow people that want to come or have been here to apply. There has not been immigration reform/amnesty in decades. \n\nI urge everyone to YouTube or go on the uscis website and find this so called application. The only way is either 1. You were born somewhere else and your parents are citizens 2. Enlist in US military 4. Marriage with a us citizen. So it’s not as easy as just applying, if it was there wouldn’t be so much illegal immigration. \n\nNo excusing or saying it’s okay to come illegally, just saying the reason people do it that way is because there hasn’t been and there currently is no process to do it legally.

Clearly the this comment section is full of the dumbest people.\n\nAll virtue-signaling and talking about how this woman is an evil person because she's standing for what it RIGHT, at the expense of her own personal interests.\n\nAs though that's not of far greater virtue than being in favour of the illegal immigration crisis that has caused ACTUAL, tremendous harm to the country.\n\nThankfully most Americans are much smarter than you clueless folks, so there's some hope.

Cubans need to stfu about immigration. They all get an automatic asylum. Only country in the world we do that with. There are zero illegal Cuban immigrants in the US. They are completely disconnected from what a real immigration process looks like

Instead of paying for illegal immigrants who commit crimes , we will pay to have them removed. Still better that before ….\nMay not be cheaper, but it will be safer !

What she did is NO LONGER POSSIBLE. At that time Visas were offered to many countries No one does that any more, is impossible to do, this lady knows that well too.\n\nthe broken immigration policies of the USA ?? are so bad is almost impossible to enter legal UNLESS you have $500 and invest in apt or a business , that’s how the wealthy like Arabs , Russians and Chinese do it. Every day I see illegals from Russia, Ukraine , China , Israel \nPolish. But no one bothers them

It is quite possible that the Trudeau government will open Canada's doors to a significant number of migrants and illegal immigrants, a move to get more votes for the next election.

What other countries on this planet welcome illegal immigrants? Doing things illegally should NEVER be embraced.

Will “illegal immigrants” who VOLUNTARILY LEAVE, be placed on a list to enter “legally”?

They don't talk to her because she a horrible person. How many white people make money from illegal immigrants working in their fields and stores. More jobs will be lost with Trump and his bf Elon. Ironic how they voted for the person who gets them laid off. So shall ye reap!

Many people came to the US illegally. They got themselves sorted and now they hate immigrants. I'm an American they say. As they should. Though many can't even speak the queen's English properly like flotus-elect but their status is legal. Some of them will get the boot even with their legal status. Having voted for Trump won't save them. Sorry. One tar brush and a bucket of tar.

This woman is twisted. She'd rather support a man who doesn't give a damn about her and send her family to the wolves, back to a country where they may have no place to live, and no opportunities. The reason people are coming illegally is because our immigration system is broken. There is no reasonable way to come to the United States legally in an expeditious manner. Some people can't wait ten years for their name to come up; they need to survive. Shame on her. I hope those same family members turn their back on her.

This politician is such a simpleton.\n\nIf by miracle the Republicans remove all so-called illegal immigrants, Republicans better get ready for severe push back from growers who have no one harvesting their crops, hotel owners who have no one to clean their hotel rooms and cater to guests etcétera.\n\nThe list is endless of the trickle down effect of mass deportation is going to play on the economy and in turn, the cost of goods and services.\n\nWay to address the concerns (the economy) of your constituents (voters) Republicans.\n\nIt's ok since in two years the House will be back to a majority blue and ready to impede Trumps' right-wing agenda.

Democrats in the 1800s: we need slaves for the economy you can't free them or everything will collapse\n\nDemocrats in 2024: you can't deport illegal immigrants or the economy will collapse.\n\nYou know illegals and the people who employ them don't pay taxes right? They are just basically used as cheap and next to free labor.

Imagine the deportation of illegal immigrants who have entered a country illegally being given refuge in the sanctuary city, where they have been provided with free housing and credit cards , whilst American soldiers are homeless on the street, being a controversial thing?????\n\nThis is only controversial if you’re a vile left, leftist democrat, who despises their country

Wait, she stood in line for days to get asylum? It takes years to immigrate to the US, not days. \nYou claimed asylum lady. \nYou and your Trumper ‘friends’ consider you an illegal then.

I think to secure boarder each illegal immigrants paid 10 to 20 thousand dollars give them id card or work permit for this to hopping billion dollars with be spending

No more of the softly, softly approach of the left on these illegal immigrants. Round them up and send them back thats what the people of America voted for and thats what should happen.

I think it’s interesting that Obama deported 3.2 million illegal immigrants. Did the media have a problem with him?? The liberal media have such a double standard.

If I find out any immigrant who voted for Trump is harboring any illegal relatives im turning them in.

New jobs created for Americans, to find illegal immigrants and deport them.TYSON FIRED AMERICANS TO HIRE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. SO NO THEY'RE NOT DOING THE JOBS AMERICANS DON'T WANT.

Why would America worry if illegals are, lawfully, removed? Cotton didnt stop getting made in the South after the slaves were set free. Tough example, and complicated discussions, but we got to reset the immigration process or look at how states ignored the homeless/drug issues? They just got to be out of control. We following the law or not here??

The Democrats created this mess letting illegal immigrants come in and getting everything free.

Who pro illegal immigrants they should be mandatory open up their houses and take in 5 illegal immigrants. Everything under their expenses. Let's see anyone willing to do it.

If illegal immigrants want to work in America, then apply for a work visa.

Only the illegals that are receiving freebies and criminals will have to go. Other illegal immigrants who have jobs and work towards getting citizenship will not get deported.

This illegal immigrant knows she's damn well lying. So she claims she received her green card after waiting just a couple of hours and days, for the USCIS to begin the process with such an expedient turn around time. After her application was submitted, researched, investigated, approved and they also issued her a Green Card so effeciently. Get real, it's a government process in no way has any business being done with our government has ever ran that efficiently and swiftly.\nHer dumb ass will be round up with the rest of her own damn family.\n\n?She called herself a Mexican-American!?

Please correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't the fact that they were deported for illegal immigration disqualify them from being allowed back into the country?

Her logic is flawed. What makes any of the people of color think Trump will stop at deporting only non white illegal immigrants?

If they deport all the illegal immigrants. Who's gonna work at Mar-a-Lago? ?

100%agree every ILLEGAL immigrant has to go. I would add 5 year time before they can apply to come back legally. Law and order

I'm a latino straight from South America and I'm very happy. I REALLY don't get what you american liberals think of us. The only reason we are willing to leave our countries to live in the US is because you have a country where we can thrive. In order to go to the US, we go through the process and apply for visas and the green card. That's being honest. We don't want the country filled with illegal immigrants who jump the border. We left our countries in an honest way and we want the borders strong, so we can still have a country where we can thrive. Is it really hard for you to understand that? We voted for Trump and we're proud of it, so we don't need your false pitty. You guys don't know reality, you're born in fantasy land and you aren't able to see the basic truth even if it's in front of you.

The argument is that we will not be able to return illegal immigrants to Cuba or Venezuela if these countries will not take them back. It doesn't hold water. If they came through Mexico, return them to Mexico.

The economy and illegal immigration are top priority for me.

This is Insane!!! What The Hell People?!?!?! I hope that the people on Social Security/Disability & Medicare are prepared for your benefits to be slashed or nonexistent, because MILLIONS of those illegal immigrants are what's allowing you to receive your benefits. Illegals pay in around $96 Billion Dollars into Social Security and Medicare yearly... even though they cannot receive any of those benefits. I know if my benefits change, I'm going to be PISSED!!! It's hard enough to live as it is. We are in for some really dark times people!!!

The sad thing is that most people in the US do not even understand how immigration law works. If they knew what people are illegal and what people became citizens they would be outraged

So he must go to deport all of the illegal immigrants that work at his golf course in Florida?? because that’s 90% of his staff that works for him there

Unbelievable! People are just so ignorant. Trump's new Border czar, Tom Homan said on CBS 60 Minutes, 2 days before the election, that he'd deport illegal immigrants AND legal immigrants AND those born in America who have illegal parents or grandparents. That means mixed-status families would all get deported AND today said the administration would conduct workplace raids!!!! Nothing else to say.

I am a double hater cant stand Trump and I am a farmer, i dont use immigrants because i just grow crops that can be mechanically harvested and I have a small farm, But in the past I used to manage large farms where we had a lot of immigrants most were illegal and people don't understand why they're illegal It's because there is an arbitrary cap on how many migrants can come from Guatemala and Mexico if they wanted to come legally just a normal worker They have a 60-year waiting list so it's just impossible to come here legally. Most of these people are very hardworking good people that come here to work for 5 to 7 years save up money and then go back to Mexico or Guatemala build a house and start a business in their own country. \n\nThis year i begrudgingly voted for trump because for me the biggest issue is with the federal and state regulations that make farming much harder than it needs to be especially regulations on diesel engine emissions that cost me tens of thousands of dollars a year and many months of not being able to use my equipment that I spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on. And Kamala was the one who enforced the CARB emmisions standards that diesel engine manufactures have to comply with to sell into California which is the biggest consumer of these engines. \n\nLike right now I have my pickup truck that's been down for 6 months because of emissions problems and so many of the vehicles have emissions problems that the parts to fix it don't even have an ETA because they need to fix so many trucks and I have two other tractors broke down that I can't use all my friends that are farmers have a lot more and dems want to significantly increase emmisions standards in 2026. \n\nYou simply can't grow food at scale without reliable diesel engines There is no alternative The vast majority of food is planted and harvested mechanically in the US The bigger issue with food is not well illegals get deported It is will the diesel engines run to harvest 90% of the calories in plant them. \n\nWe have robots that can milk the cows most of the things that migrants harvest can be harvested mechanically and they are in other parts of the world It's just cheaper to do it with labor once that's not the case it will be mechanized. I would prefer to keep migrants here but give them legal working status if they have productive jobs and they pay tax.

Ignorance Personified...Why are MAGATS not talking about European immigrants who come into country illegally??? Ask them specifically who they are referring to...

Donald Trump although I didn’t vote for you and I honestly do not agree with everything you say and stand for, I strongly stand and support what you have planned to do for Illegal Immigration. This massive deportation plan you have set out is a great goal you have because all these illegal immigrants who are coming from all over the world and are bringing their problems to the USA ?? and are committing crimes here and are having their kids here which is a big safety threat for our fellow Americans, this massive deportation plan is exactly what we need for our country and I support you 100% on this!

Did you noticed she said as a Mexican-American? She said she came here and got her papers by waiting for a long time but that means she was an illegal alien. My goodness there are so many like her that try too hard to denounce their heritage to the point to have her family members deported? You can not make this sh— up!! She better run when they send immigration officers cause she does look Mexican ? pinche coconut (white inside-brown outside)

I'll be surprised if Trump builds a wall. Let's see what he does with the illegal immigrants.
