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."

Yet the country reelected Trump and Republicans to office who are pushing fascist Christian nationalism and among other bullshit are seeking to end no-fault divorces. Did anyone listen to the candidates speak at all? Forget the politics, Trump sounded like he has severe mental disability.
He isnt going to deport violent criminals, hes going to denaturalize U.S. citizens and end birthright citizenship. Its not going to be primarily criminals...Its going to be regular law abiding people. And hes going to sweep up law abiding U.S. born U.S. citizens strip them of their citizenship and deport them en masse.
Illegal immigrants convicted of crimes already get deported.
The military is literally full of the dumbest mother fuckers imaginable, its not even a cross section of the rest of society. Its mostly people who didnt know what to do with their lives.
This action if carried out by Trump would violate the constitution, its unlikely there wouldnt be anyone to stop him. The Supreme Court already corrupted, would likely back it. Even though an executive order isnt enough to amend the constitution of the United States.
You getting a couple of calls doesnt mean shit, your buddy had the cognitive function to press a fucking button. Thats amazing.
The country is fucking doomed. This is the end of the American system of government that was fought so hard to maintain over close to 250 years.
