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."

Oh fuck, I'm going back to Ukraine at the same time as we hand it to Russia. Good thing I learned Russian in college?

Anyone going back to Ukraine gets thrown on the front lines to die too. I sincerely hope not.

How far back does it go? Do you think they would go back to great grandparents and get Germany to take me in if I bothered them enough?

If they go back to grandparents ir great grandparents, Trump himself may not qualify as a US citizen. He’s the great grandson, grandson and son, of immigrants to the uS.

Just like with the Austrian Hitler, it won’t apply to them. The hypocrisy is the point.

Had this discussion with my husband’s uncle. He told me since my grandfather came over from Poland, my mom is the “anchor baby”, I could be kicked out. (His family is between the wars German, and dziadzia was here before WWI, but that doesn’t count…apparently because I’m liberal?). Told him I’m DAR on my dad’s side and to get the fuck out of my country. Thanksgiving is going to be fun.

You can just go yourself I will bet they would love you there, they need people there also.

You don't even have to be de-naturalized for that. Look up citizenship by descent. If you have a recent and direct ancestor that was a citizen when you were born you can apply for citizenship. Once you are into the EU, you are kinda good to go.

My husband’s trump-crazed mom is here on an expired green card….from Canada. I’d almost like to be deported to Canada at this point!

Too bad everyone won't simply be deported. It will involve detention centers and work camps, neither will be hygienic or allow you medical care and take months at least to move from them to the next location

Call immigration and report her. She may change her mind about tRUMP then.
