President-elect Donald Trump confirmed on Monday that he is prepared to declare a national emergency and potentially use military assets as part of a mass deportation effort that his administration is preparing to launch on day one.

Trump responded to a Truth Social post by Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton, who said that Trump is reportedly "prepared to declare a national emergency and will use military assets to reverse the Biden invasion through a mass deportation program."

"TRUE!!" Trump posted.


Trump declared a national emergency at the southern border in 2019 in order to allocate more money to the construction of a border wall amid congressional inaction on the subject. Military assets have been used in a number of ways in regard to border security, including in Texas. However, it is not clear how they would be used related to deportations.

Trump made a historic mass deportation campaign a cornerstone of his 2024 campaign, and his top officials have repeated that promise since he was elected this month.

"Following the Eisenhower Model, we will carry out the largest domestic deportation operation in American history," Trump said in September.

He has also promised to invoke the Alien Enemies Act to remove gang members, drug dealers and cartel members from the U.S., with the help of multiple government agencies.

Additionally, he previously said he is prepared to move troops to the southern border and use the Navy to impose a "fentanyl blockade" on U.S. waters.

Fox News Digital reported last week that the Trump administration is already discussing where it can expand detention centers in anticipation of the operation and has spoken to private prison companies about potential expansion.

Karoline Leavitt, a spokesperson for the transition team told Fox News Digital, "The American people re-elected President Trump by a resounding margin, giving him a mandate to implement the promises he made on the campaign trail. He will deliver."

Trump announced three major immigration-related staffing moves last week. He announced that former acting ICE Director Tom Homan will be the "border czar" and will be in charge of border security and overseeing the deportation operation. On Tuesday, Trump announced that Kristi Noem was his pick to lead the department of Homeland Security.

Trump is likely to face significant resistance from blue states for his deportation operation. Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey said she is prepared to use "every tool in the tool box" to protect its citizens and residents and vowed that state police would "absolutely not" assist Trump in the operation.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker said last week that he is "going to do everything that I can to protect our undocumented immigrants."

However, he conceded there were some circumstances where his state would work with the federal government to deport illegal immigrants.

"We cannot prohibit them, federal law enforcement, from coming into our state to, you know, conduct raids or do anything else like that," Pritzker said. "Meanwhile, I think it would be very difficult for them to just spread out across the country. They don’t have enough manpower within the Department of Homeland Security in order to carry that out."

I believe this will apply to the millions that came in the last couple of years under the Biden regime.

He and Homan should say what they are planning to do with DACA so we can have an idea what will happen to us.

I know it sounds scary but don't worry. The goal is squarely in the infeasible politically and economically category. It might even collapse the country. It's unprecedented.

Stepping firmly into the unintended consequences category. Maximum they did was 1.1 million during the final year of the Truman administration with basically everything going for them. Funny that they keep quoting this epic failure as the model to copy.

Most of the ones kicked out 60% were citizens. So they'll just walk back in.

Nobody can predict what's gonna happen, we need to wait. In the meantime, stay out of trouble and don't hang out in the ghetto.

Isn't it obvious..? We're a bargaining chip to get their agenda passed in congress. We can expect uncertainty at its best, threats and the like to make Democrats comply with Trump's demands.

We shall see how much we mean to the political left and what the next President's real intentions are.

We are the ones for whom the right wing has the slightest atomic bit of sympathy for, terminating the program to persecute us will only be seen as evil, something they might want to prevent given that the perception of their massive deportation plan is evil by nature as seen by many.

We can only ask for his mercy, I'm willing to call him best President ever if this touches his heart and keeps the program around, but if he subdues the left in our favor for a path to Citizenship, I will call him a hero for life just to satisfy his ego, something he loves. Yet, some of these people are soulless, anyone said Miller..? People like him are our biggest hurdle.

Bottom line, prepare for the worst hope for the best.

After what happened at the border and the role it played in the election; Democrats realized they needed to change their stance and public image regarding immigration and border security. Their first attempt at that was their 2023 border security enforcement bill. That was killed by trump

I think we will see Dems more willing to negotiate on border security in this Congress, in an attempt to win back the voters they lost in NY, NJ, AZ, NV. and CA. A change needs to happen in the Party and Dem leadership knows it.

This reminds me of that time when there was a government shutdown because of DACA and once the polls started coming out that the people were not in support of the govt shutdown over DACA... the Democrats quickly turned on us and started saying that "we can't take the center stage".
They threw us under the bus and ignored us all these years wasting time and trying to pass impassable bills.
Democrats are fake allies , if you ask me.
They use our continuous plight for political gain and they are not willing to sacrifice anything for us.
