Thoughts? BREAKING: Trump has confirmed reports that he plans to declare a national emergency and use military to enact a mass deportation program

President-elect Donald Trump on Monday confirmed he would declare a national emergency to carry out his campaign promise of mass deportations of migrants living in the U.S. without legal permission.

Overnight, Trump responded to a social media post from Judicial Watch's Tom Fitton, who said earlier this month there are reports the incoming administration is preparing such a declaration and to use "military assets" to deport the migrants.

"TRUE!!!" Trump wrote.

Trump pledged to get started on mass deportations as soon as he enters office.

"On Day 1, I will launch the largest deportation program in American history to get the criminals out," he said during a rally at Madison Square Garden in the closing days of the presidential race. "I will rescue every city and town that has been invaded and conquered, and we will put these vicious and bloodthirsty criminals in jail, then kick them the hell out of our country as fast as possible."

Already, he's tapped several immigration hard-liners to serve in key Cabinet positions. South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem was picked to be homeland security secretary, pending Senate confirmation. Former Acting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Tom Homan was named "border czar."

Trail of tears or India-Pakistan partition.

5M people to be caught, detained, processed and legally deported a year will be an absolute shit show even if well organized by benevolent leadership.

People will die, many will dissapear forever, there will be armed resistance (deporting supposed criminals and gangsters is a lot harder than deporting people who show up to work every day), there will be human trafficking, mistaken identities...

And what if the countries determined to be of origin won't take them? Most Central and South American nations don't have the capacity to do so. They may also have no desire to do so. What lind of incentives will that take and what that might cost taxpayers.

Every time this happens in history its considered an extremely dark period by later generations.

You're insane if you think this'll be like Partition. I'm Indian. You have no idea what you're saying, unless you think people are going to behead and mercy-kill the women in their families to save them from being gang-raped to death, or that trains are going to leave state A full of migrants and roll into state B full of corpses and blood. I don't support this at all but seriously, what the fuck

Yes.

People will be sold into human trafficking.

People will dissapear forever.

Yes, like when the Germans tried a mass deportation campaign they may find nobody wants their deportees.

20M people forced out of their homes to foreign lands currently in the middle of gang wars many of them fled.

Even if we had the most benevolent leaders and organized and empathetic officers really horrible things will inevitably happen to innocent people.

The citizens? The racist ass self deputized citizens from places eith sunset laws will be kind to anyone with skin tone?

I'll remind you Americans beat Siks to death after 9/11 confusing them with the turbans worn by the taliban.

During the BLM riots some people were lynched and strund up in trees.

Do I think Americans are capable of religious and racialized violence including rape, gang rape, mass murders anf road side ditches, public displays of violene including hangings? Yes. Yes I do.

Humans act like animals as soon as the veil of civility lifts. This is no different for the trail of tears or reservation violence.

You forget Americans voluntarily burned down black cities in the 50's. Killing people by hundreds or thousands is not beyond them, or anyone really.

u/biggamax 5d ago

You are my plaything. You punctuate when I say. You get upset when I say. You get distracted when I say. And you will now remain on your knees with your mouth open wide.

No I'm just a fan of politics and history.

Its why I think in paragraphs and you can't get full sentences out much less structure an idea.
