A one-time operation to deport these immigrants would cost at least $315 billion, broken down as follows: \nThe government would have to spend $89.3 billion to conduct sufficient arrests. \nThe government would have to spend $167.8 billion to detain immigrants en masse. \nThe government would have to spend $34.1 billion on legal processing. \nThe government would have to spend $24.1 billion on removals

And America has Tom Homan...and true patriot that will end this illegal border crossing end. Of course we aren't going to deport every one...but start with the felons, criminals and gang bangers and anyone that commits a crime here.

She probably will turn her family in to immigration. A very despicable human being. She needs to understand and learn her history about the Mexican repatriation act of the 1930s. Thousands of Mexicans and US citizens were deported forcibly to Mexico without due process. One day she’ll be walking down the street and immigration will pick her up and send her right across the border because of her accent and skin color.

I’m Native American and I say deport her. Yes, I’m entitled to my opinion. I’m a citizen and my people have been here for thousands of years. And, my people have been fighting for this nation even before we were considered citizens ourselves. We were employed by the U.S. Military to serve as Scouts (fighting against our own people to help the U.S. conquer-hint hint). Our languages were used to help win WWII and we have the highest enlistments by ethnic group. Most undocumented people I know are cool and they pay their dues and don’t want any problems. These ones that act high and mighty drain the life out of this country. I want to see this lady’s face when she finds out she is the wrong color according to some of her peers. Lol

??This foolish lady doesn't realize she's one of the ones that will be deported. She's an illegal alien who came to this country. NOT SAD AT ALL... You are not better than anyone.

No matter what if they deport farm workers. Food is going to double or triple from the prices we see now. Guaranteed farmers won't be able to afford workers comp. And i am one whom is not pro robot aka AI. Bad if you send them all back and bad if you dont. America just cant maintain the way its going so just brace yourself. Dont go out spending like its all good. Its not.

Every one that is here in the United States that is illegally here you be deported right away and charged with a criminal offense for breaking the law

What affects one of us, effects all of us. Wait until the Trump supporters find out their benefits start being cut down or cut off,prices go up for everyday supplies and groceries bcz of the tariffs and deportation of migrant workers, generational farmers go bankrupt and companies start laying off or relocate overseas. Tick tock,Trump supporters voted for this but unfortunately we'll all be affected by their stupidity.

I'll make sure rato lady's loved ones get deported. She can stay tho. She looks like the cleaning lady from Family Guy

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.

She better hide because she might be ones of the ones getting deported

This dude is not smart, he blind, mandate is mandate?. No, stupid, all big scale action has balance disruption of the system.. Of course, deport criminal is priority, they are prejudice to economy and well being of society. Take immigrants that work in farmer for example, and other fields that supply necessity to population. How farmers will deliver products if they dont have workers? How the business will survive? How will people that need good have them? Farmers will get nuts, nobody to harvest their products, who will do the job? Oh! Get all those brainless senators for work in sectors of emergency. IT will affect the common people that need basic goods. The business people will lose income because their products will perish before consumers can have them. They need hire other people that will impose different price in services, for high demand, cant enforce to pay. In some point they have fill up for bankrupt. Population will be lack of basic. Anybody of common sense, analyze all that effect. No one those senators are able to answers the questions she put for them. ( They just said stupid words, We won majority , people voted in us) but morons, you will make a mess, in months all medeo/small business owners would stand up) Just imagine that.

That lady will be the first one to be deported. ??‍♂️

I talked to one guy who said he voted for Trump because Biden deported his friend. ???

He's deporting legal people. also, she's going to be one of the first, and she deserves it.

Yea she is not all there. I agree with immigrants coming here legally but for everyone that is already here and had kids and a life established, pay taxes, and the whole 9.... they should not get deported. Doesnt makes sence. Now if they want to apply that moving forward to any one that ogers over the boarder and even if they arrive pregnantnd give birth her. Kids shouldnt have citizenship in that case. \n\nAnd for us that did come here legally, well we shouldn't be touched either. doesnt mkae sence.

Not just businesses but farmers and individuals who employ and use these illegals should pay a fine and have their “help” kicked out. Fines for the use of these peopel by citizens will be one way to pay for the deportations. Close the southern border off for the first 6 months of 2025.

I am a U.S. born Mexican-American. This woman disgusts me. My father was a decorated WWII veteran. He, too, was a U.S. born citizen, as well as my mother. We never had much. One thing they both taught me was to help people who had less than we did. I look mexican, yet when I open my mouth, I don't have the accent my parents had. I have been targeted by random people just minding my business running errands. I have on occasion stuck up for my fellow Hispanic when I have seen them ignored and mistreated. What the f is wrong with this person. Was she not taught anything about empathy and compassion? Isn't she at risk of being deported? The green card can easily be taken away. Honey, they don't want us here. Yes, I include myself in that. This woman is as racist as any skin head. They will turn on her in a second. What a fool. Even Mexico doesn't deserve for this woman to be tossed back to them.

She doesn’t even understand how the policy works when someone is deported. The person has to apply and it could take 5-20 years with an attorney to try to come back to their families. It’s costly and not guaranteed. It’s tragic and dystopian that families are turning against one another. Welcome to Fahrenheit 451/Brave New World. She better start saving for her attorney because “legal status” is not part of the 2025 agenda.

In response to the judging of immigrants. Interesting how we rarely see immigrants on our street corners asking for a handout. Instead they're at work making just barely enough to eventually have their own business in a few years. Latinos are a workforce and stimulate the economy because its a lot of hard work to maintain and sustain this country. Who's gonna do all that hard work when they're deported. Maybe our spoiled and privileged teens? All industries will suffer a void in their workforce causing products and service prices to increase. Billionaires like Corporations, Trump and Musk are the reason you are not doing well, not immigrants. Trumpism is fear, hate, blame and shame politics. Immigration has been a thing since a million years ago, and it will always exist. People migrate. Americans use 1,000 times the resources more than immigrants need. Immigrants don't even qualify to for well-fare assistance. When immigrants are gone and the borders are secured, who will be blamed next for America's problems. Instead of focusing on the greater good and progress for all Americans, Republicans can't help themselves to use their power to address their xenophobia, blame, hate without concern of who and what suffers, families of the working class suffer, and our economy, not billionaires. Mass change and reckless actions based on negative emotions and Ego based intentions of one man, is bad for everyone. Negative energy + negative actions amounts and results to nothing but negative consequences and repercussions. Trumpism is no bueno for America. His approach to fixing immigration will hurt and break America.

I hope she knows when they are deporting she might be one of them.

Trump is not going to deport people to have their legal status here as permanent Green card holders, but what his policies can and will do is make the lives of both legal residents and illegal ones very troublesome, with people constantly having to prove their status.

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.

You were not born here so there's a chance that your citizenship can be revoked and you'll be one of the people being deported poor lady. She's in denial

hopefully, milania is the first one deported

deporting immigrants is going to increase food prices as they are the ones who pick the fruit and veg and everything else.

Mandate my ass i don't want extra increase on my food, deport the new ones that came recently which are lazy and secure borders and prevent more from coming that will be good

Get to Massacusetts. Governor Maura Healy will not deport illegals. She says illegals are safe here in Massacusetts. Come one come all. The Governor is opening her home to all illegals. Get to Arlington Massacusetts in a hurry before Trump picks you and your family up and deports you. It’s all free for you in Massacusetts. Food clothes shelter medical dental glasses and yes debt cards. It’s all on the Massacusetts tax payer says Governor Healey. Even tattooed face gang members rapist thieves child traffickers all welcome. Oh by the way Cambridge Massacusetts the home of Harvard University MIT and Senator Elizabeth Warren borders Arlington. Beautiful place be sure to visit or stay as long as you want. Enjoy Harvard square.?

Obama deported more ppl than Trump did in the first 4 yrs. Obama was nick-named deporter in chief. everything the Dems say is hypocrisy. Call us racists for wanting a secure border and Legal immigration. Call us Racist for supporting law enforcement. Call us Transphobic for wanting women's sports to not include bio men, which scientifically even on hormones are built stronger, Lea Thompson or Thomas is just one example. In the mens swim team he was 400 something. Yet in the women's swim team he smoked all the women...there's a solution that doesn't include ruining women's chances to win. The list goes on...Dems have found a way to exclude every demographic. From defund the police, the economy and border security, they have failed us. Then call us names and I saw this coming...instead of running thru the streets screaming, Republicans are quiet and decide to make our voices heard at the polls.

They won't be deported out right. They will have two options: 1. Be deported to their country of origin, or 2. Go to work as a “worker” on one of Kennedy’s Farms. Mark my words.?

Got their vote and vote help, thank you goodbye???he told them how he really felt no tact. Ised and abused. I feel certain ones will get to stay and others will be deported. Nobodys dumb

She said 14 million entered on Biden's watch and should be deported. That is stupid because there are less the 12 million undocumented immigrants in the United States now. Being stupid is probably one of the saddest things a person can be and today it is the norm.

They keep saying: we’re going to deport every single one. They have never said how. \n\nThey need to detain them, have them processed then deporte them. I wonder how much would that be for 13 million people?

Well I will say she is brave and honest. And she is a TRUE American. Regardless of what Trump wants, she’s standing on game! And I’m not going to mistreat every Hispanic I see because I know how it feels to be grouped in and stereotyped, trust me. Also no one’s getting deported..

If the Democrat can control congress, Donald Trump won't get one penny to deport anybody unless you use it from his own bank account

One simple question: deport them to where? And how?

Mass deportation is easy to say but hard to do.its very expensive to deport 11millions immigrants.to deport 1 immigrant trump needs 10thousand dollars coz of 3 reasons;\n1.the cost of finding them\n2.the cost to prove they are illegal immigrants\n3.the country of origin must accept them if not they will stay in usa.\nSo easy is that not.trump told a fairy tale stories and the people believe it.i swear,he will deport a few and most of the would be deported ones are the new commers who have returned tickets &who were invited by their families who voted for trump???

This guy is in fantasyland. Notice how he says we’re going after the criminals 1st. That’s because the 15 million who have come through the caravans ARE NOT ILLEGAL. They have legally asked for asylum and they are awaiting their asylum hearings in immigration court. TRUMP can’t touch those. In Texas, many of these people have their 1st immigration court hearings in 2027 & 2028!! It usually takes at least 2 years to get to “trial,” then if you lose, you have 2 appeals and each appeal can take 2-3 years.\n\nEven the criminal aliens they pick up will be entitled to have their day in immigration court. This is nothing new. Bush and Obama deported millions of criminal aliens!! Criminal aliens have always been deported. This has never stopped, regardless of who’s the president. Look up ICE detention facilities. You have 2 big ones in California, Otay Mesa & Calexico; in Arizona it’s Florence & Eloy; in Texas it’s Harlingen. They’ve been operating before & during the Biden administration.\n\nAnd wait till businesses & employers start complaining. ?. Stephen Miller could’ve gone after the slaughterhouse meatpacking industry illegals during the pandemic. They were easy targets because they were the only ones working and ICE had the manpower to do it. Did he do it? Of course not!! America would’ve starved to death. \n\nMAGA nation has been played.

Only $10,900 to remove one vs give one $350 a week equaling at least $18,200 a year of our tax dollars. And continuing to increase our tax and property tax to support them. Deport them!

Famous last words from 2016 we will build the wall and Mexico will pay for it. There will be no massive deportation because no one will be willing to pay for it with increased taxes.What the people don't understand it's not logisticly possible.

And as each illegal is deported Americans should promise to overthrow the autocracies/dictatorships they are returning to and Americans are responsible for supporting in the first place. Iran/Contra support was one.

Mass deportation means there will not be anyone to harvest our produce, so we will have massive food shortages and dramatic increases in inflation. The Republican Party used the border security lie to scare people into voting for their racist ideology. They despise non-white people, even the ones our economy depends on. Everyone should prepare for a major recession and dramatic increases in inflation. These Republican policies are going to crash the US economy. This is what you get when you vote for a convicted felon who is a prolific liar and racist named Donald Trump.

As a Black woman, I’m going to sit back eat my popcorn and laugh as they start this mass deportation. Latinos asked for this. But I’m also going to sit back and laugh at White people when groceries and other things start going up. These people do jobs most Americans don’t want to do. I wish she had asked him do this mass deportation include White immigrants who over stayed their time or Black and Brown are the only ones they are going after.

I am sooo looking forward to watching the trump regime trying to deport ALL illegal immigrants. And then all the MAGA criminals will be filling the jobs that the immigrants now have vacated….NOT ???. The US economy will collapse because there will be no one filling those necessary and useful jobs. Watch a MAGA idiot desperately looking for strawberries at the grocery store …..or any other US grown veggies or fruits. The non US grown produce will be exorbitantly expensive due to trump tariffs, and American grown stuff will be rotting in the fields ????

When there are up to 15 million illegal ones. Why weren't they arrested and deported in the last few decades of Republican governments? The answer: Because American society thrives on the exploitation of these people and the people who benefit from it do not want deportation at all.

If anyone here is against deportation, right your name here so they can assign one illegal in your house to take care of so we dont have to give our taxes to them.

I voted against trump….but if they deport one they should deport all….it was the Hispanics that voted for trump that helped trump get elected, it was their self hatred that made them vote for trump now they should feel the results of what they did…in fact trump and his people should go also for the Hispanics that entered this country illegally and later became citizens through any kind of means such as marriage, or being sponsored by their own kids….that includes musk and melania according to reports they entered this country illegally…..and what about the Asians? there are more Asian illegals than Hispanics in this country they voted for trump now they should also be deported….Muslims are another group….trump should follow his son’s in law advice annex the Gaza Strip to Israel “ it is a good beach property”….now let’s speak about women, abortion and other rights like the right to vote….I don’t care if trump takes all of their rights away this is what they voted for…finally blacks they also voted for trump knowing that white supremacists would be free to do what they dreamed of doing…they should go for their wildest fantasies ….when blacks voted for trump they forgot about blm….I guess that is what they wanted….when blacks come out in the streets to protest the way they are treated we should leave them alone….same with Mexicans and Palestinian Americans, women….you all are on your own…

I hope you're all ready for even more expensive groceries at the supermarket since you’ll be deporting all those immigrants employed at farms everywhere. I expect the economy to take a nosedive as a huge chunk of workers are deported, illegal or otherwise. I’m sure you a$$holes will somehow find a way to blame the Dems/Libs. Unfortunately, you’ll have no one but yourselves to blame for this shitshow. I expect healthcare, and all “entitlements” to be gutted/destroyed. We warned you, and now we all have to suffer for your stupidity. I hope you’re happy patting yourselves on the back for destroying our country. Congratulations, you did it! You’ve destroyed our country.
