The Trump administration is wasting no time dismantling Joe Biden’s open border disaster.
President Trump promised voters he would secure the border and remove illegal aliens who don’t belong here.
And Donald Trump just got the weapon he needs to supercharge his deportation agenda.
White House throws weight behind REMOVE Act
The White House announced its backing for new legislation that would put deportations on the fast track.
The Rapid Expulsion of Migrant Offenders who Violate and Evade (REMOVE) Act was introduced by Republican Senators Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Ted Budd of North Carolina, and Ted Cruz of Texas.
This game-changing legislation would give the Department of Justice just 15 days to complete removal proceedings once the process has begun.
That’s a dramatic shift from the endless delays and legal gymnastics that allowed millions of illegal immigrants to stay in America under Biden’s failed policies.
"Under Joe Biden’s failed leadership, we saw the largest wave of illegal immigration in our nation’s history, forcing communities across Tennessee and America to bear the consequences," Senator Blackburn stated when the bill was introduced.
"With a record number of illegal aliens now living in the United States, President Trump must have every tool necessary to remove them quickly from our country," Blackburn continued.
The legislation would require illegal immigrants to begin removal proceedings within 15 days of receiving a Notice to Appear.
No more years-long waits while cases pile up in immigration courts.
No more opportunities for illegal immigrants to disappear into American communities while their cases drag on forever.
Stephen Miller reveals the administration’s ambitious deportation goals
White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller made it clear the administration isn’t playing games when it comes to immigration enforcement.
Miller revealed that the Trump administration is aiming for 3,000 arrests daily as part of its mass deportation operation.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement has already broken single-day arrest records this week with well over 2,000 arrests on both Tuesday and Wednesday.
"Under the Biden Administration, the American people witnessed a full-scale invasion of our country that directly threatened our national security and sovereignty," Miller stated.
"With untold millions of illegal aliens in the U.S. due to Democrats’ open-border policies, we must take strong, decisive measures to remove those who have been ordered to be removed from the United States," Miller added.
Miller praised the REMOVE Act as "critical legislation that will help us fulfill our mass deportation operation and get gang members, cartels, and violent criminals off the streets."
The White House advisor noted that passing this legislation, combined with what he called "the largest mass deportation investment in American history," would help permanently secure the border.
Trump administration targets the most dangerous criminals first
Federal authorities have made it clear they’re focusing their efforts on removing the most dangerous illegal immigrants first.
The administration is prioritizing those with criminal convictions and ties to violent gangs like MS-13 and Tren de Aragua.
Both of these criminal organizations have been designated as foreign terrorist organizations by the Trump administration.
These aren’t just immigration violations – these are serious threats to American communities that Biden allowed to flourish for four years.
The Trump administration has also offered a carrot alongside the stick approach.
Illegal aliens who choose to self-deport before facing arrest will receive help with their exit flight and a $1,000 payment after their departure from the United States is confirmed.
It’s a smart strategy that encourages voluntary compliance while making clear that enforcement is coming for those who refuse.
The numbers show Biden’s border disaster was historic
The statistics from the Biden years paint a devastating picture of what happens when America abandons border security.
Millions of people entered the country illegally during the Biden administration, primarily through the southern border that Biden refused to secure.
Communities across America were forced to deal with the consequences of Biden’s open border policies.
Schools became overcrowded, hospital emergency rooms were overwhelmed, and local resources were stretched to the breaking point.
American taxpayers footed the bill for housing, feeding, and providing services to millions of people who had no legal right to be in the country.
Meanwhile, dangerous criminals and gang members mixed in with the crowds, bringing violence and drugs to American neighborhoods.
Early results show Trump means business
The Trump administration isn’t just talking tough – they’re delivering results.
During Trump’s first 100 days in office, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has already removed over 65,000 illegal immigrants from the country.
That’s a dramatic acceleration from the Biden years when deportations slowed to a trickle.
Senator Budd emphasized the urgency of restoring order to America’s immigration system.
"Now, President Trump is stepping in to restore order," Budd stated. "I’m proud to stand with Senator Blackburn and my colleagues to fast-track the removal of those who have been ordered to be removed."
"It’s time we uphold the integrity of our immigration system to protect our nation," he added.
American people support deportation efforts
The Trump administration’s immigration enforcement has strong public support.
A Pew Research Center poll from March 2024 showed that the majority of American adults back deportations of illegal aliens to at least some extent.
The poll found that 32% of Americans support the removal of all illegal aliens, regardless of whether they committed additional crimes.
This broad public support gives the Trump administration a clear mandate to continue its aggressive enforcement efforts.
Americans are tired of watching their tax dollars support people who broke the law to enter the country while legal aliens wait years to come here the right way.
The REMOVE Act represents exactly the kind of swift action that voters demanded when they elected Donald Trump to clean up Biden’s border mess.
With Stephen Miller coordinating the effort and Republican senators providing the legislative tools, Trump is well-positioned to deliver on his promise to secure America’s borders once and for all.
