They’re promising mass deportations.
Top Trump administration officials this week reinforced their plans to execute mass deportations as a key strategy on immigration.
Speaking at the Border Security Expo in Phoenix, Ariz., White House border czar Tom Homan praised the work of Border Patrol agents and Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers over the last year and said the high number of arrests and deportations was expected to continue.
Immigration officers arrested more than half a million undocumented immigrants last year, according to officials speaking at the Expo, and are now making about 1,200 arrests a day; President Trump had campaigned on a promise of a million deportations a year.
I have to wonder…did Trump’s mother have permission to immigrate here? Did his paternal grandfather have such permission?
- Mother (Mary Anne MacLeod): Born in 1912 on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland, she immigrated to the United States in 1930 at age 18, worked as a maid in New York, and became a naturalized citizen in 1942.
- Father (Frederick Christ Trump): Born in 1905 in the Bronx, New York, he was the son of German immigrants (Friedrich Trump and Elizabeth Christ).
Trump’s ancestors didn’t hobnob with Jefferson and Adams; they weren’t here yet. They hadn’t immigrated to the US yet.
The rules have changed since then. Fair enough. But this venomous raging hatred of people who immigrate without permission is a tad rich in a guy whose own mother did the same thing.
