Donald Trump will use the US Army to round up and deport ‘the worst of the worst’ illegal migrants in an unparalleled crackdown, his former enforcement chief has said.
Tom Homan, who is likely to lead a mass deportation programme in the Trump administration, has said all of the estimated 20 million people residing in the US illegally would be targeted by the unprecedented campaign.
He said: ‘Bottom line: if you come to the country illegally, you’re not off the table.
Mr Homan, who was head of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) during Trump’s first stint in the White House, said he would revive the president elect’s ‘remain in Mexico‘ programme, in which Mexicans would have their asylum applications processed on their side of the border.
He also promised to close the southern border and build a wall – another flagship Trump pledge.
All military police reservists should make plans for extended domestic deployment in 2025.
This is when the National Guard actually guards the nation.
