The deportation operations are now in full swing! After months of preparation (and President Trump firing 3 top officials who weren’t working fast enough for him), ICE has ramped up their enforcement to over 3,700 deportations per day. There is now a very real possibility that every illegal alien could be removed from our country by the end of Trump’s term. That’s no exaggeration.
The libertarians at the Cato Institute are freaking out worse than usual about President Trump. (You have to excuse them. They’re libertarians. And retarded.)
Look at how the Cato Institute is hyperventilating:
“ICE is arresting enormous numbers of immigrants who have no criminal history.”
LOL! And there’s more:
“ICE is taking to the streets to make arrests like never before.”
It’s true! The comprehensive enforcement Americans have been waiting for is finally here. Recent operations have included arrests in various locations, including a gas station manager in Malibu.
ICE storms a gas station in Santa Monica, California. Goes in the back, gets cursed at by some lady, and arrests illegals for deportation.
America voted for this. And we’re glad we did.

The strategy has shifted from focusing solely on violent criminals and gang members to comprehensive enforcement of immigration law. That’s why the first few months of the mass deportations were so disappointing from a numbers perspective. This broader approach is yielding much higher numbers and sending a clear message about consistent law enforcement.
Current deportation rates at 3,700 per day add up to 1,350,500 per year, or 5,402,000 over four years. But here’s what makes this truly significant.
We’ve learned something important during this administration that previous presidents never demonstrated: when you enforce immigration law consistently and visibly, it creates powerful deterrent effects.
The illegal aliens are watching these ICE operations closely. When ICE arrests someone with “no criminal history” and deports them, it sends a clear message to every other illegal alien:
Immigration law will be enforced uniformly.
Reports indicate that illegal aliens are self-deporting at unprecedented rates. For every one that ICE removes, approximately 10 are choosing to self-deport.
That’s what has the Cato Institute libertarians freaking out. If the Trump administration deports 5.4 million illegal aliens in the next four years, there could be well over 50 million self-deportations. The math suggests we could see comprehensive resolution of the illegal immigration issue.
Here’s an interesting development that demonstrates the economic impact. The LA City Council just passed a new $30-an-hour minimum wage ordinance for hotel workers, effective July 1.
Hotels across the country typically have English-speaking Americans working the front desk, but many other positions have been filled by illegal workers. Now those workers aren’t showing up for their shifts.
The hotels are going to need to hire American workers for those $30-an-hour jobs! President Trump’s enforcement policies are already raising wages for American workers, and even liberal city councils are inadvertently helping.
Imagine how much stronger our country will be with 50 million fewer people here illegally, keeping wages artificially low. As of October 2024, there are over 100 million Americans who have left the workforce. This happened because tens of millions of jobs were taken by illegal aliens since 2000, while globalist policies shipped manufacturing overseas.
The jobs are coming back to Americans, and comprehensive immigration enforcement is a key part of that success.
Then there’s this dummy:
Your daily reminder that Trump still has 4,946 troops sitting around LA doing nothing.
Meanwhile, he has weakened our border safety operations — slashing the National Guard's fentanyl and drug interdiction force by 32 PERCENT.
He is actively endangering our communities by…

This might be the first time that Gavin Newsom has ever pretended to worry about fentanyl. There’s no need for National Guard drug interdictions at the southern border in California. There are 5,000 active-duty US Army soldiers and Marines on the border ensuring nothing illegal gets across.
The 4,946 troops “sitting around” in LA are supporting ICE operations, which is why deportations are approaching 4,000 per day.
The current enforcement approach represents the first time in decades that immigration law is being enforced as written. The results speak for themselves – record deportation numbers, voluntary departures, and American workers getting better opportunities.
This comprehensive approach to immigration enforcement is delivering on the promise to put America First.
