The Trump administration has deported more than 100,000 criminal illegals since he has taken office in January, according to reports.
Customs and Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement have reported taking more than 113,000 illegals into custody since January and have deported around 100,000 of them.
“He’s doing what he was voted in to do. Point blank,” an administration official told the New York Post.
Per the Post:
Trump has also taken aggressive measures to quell transnational criminal organizations, such as invoking the 18th-century Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan gang members to a notorious El Salvadoran “hellhole” mega prison without a trial.
Seventeen alleged Tren de Aragua and MS-13 gangbangers were handed over to El Salvador in shackles Sunday night — despite the usage of that rarely used wartime act being blocked by a federal judge earlier this month.
Illegal crossings at the US-Mexico border have also fallen to levels not seen in decades — hitting a stunning new low in March — with DHS sources calling it “the Trump effect.”
“Illegal entries into the United States are no longer a backdoor way to getting status,” a source said.
This is what we voted Trump into office to do.
We need a lot more done, too. Congress needs to appropriate more funds to get this done.
