Trump Confirms He’ll Do It – Biggest Deportations to Begin at Start of Term
The article discusses plans from the Trump administration regarding immigration and energy policies, as expressed by campaign aides shortly after Trump’s election victory. Karoline Leavitt, Trump’s national campaign press secretary, claimed that Trump’s victory gives him a mandate to implement the policies he advocated during his campaign. These include the commencement of mass deportations of illegal immigrants starting on Trump’s first day in office, which she termed the “largest mass deportation operation.” This operation aims to reverse the immigration policies enacted under Vice President Kamala Harris.
Additionally, the administration intends to reinstate previous border policies that were in place before Trump left office, emphasizing a strong stance on immigration enforcement while still welcoming legal immigration. There are plans to expedite energy production and bring Ukraine and Russia to negotiations regarding their conflict. Trump’s former ICE director, Tom Homan, noted that the deportation strategy will involve targeted arrests rather than mass sweeps or harsh detention facilities.
the article highlights Trump’s commitment to restoring his administration’s immigration and energy policies, framing them as priorities that align with the wishes of his voter base.
Deporting illegal immigrants will begin on Day One of the Trump administration, according to top Trump aides.
Karoline Leavitt, Trump’s national campaign press secretary, has said that President-elect Donald Trump’s blowout victory is an endorsement by voters of policies Trump championed on the campaign trail.
“The American people delivered a resounding victory for President Trump, and it gives him a mandate to govern as he campaigned, to deliver on the promises that he made,” Leavitt said, according to Newsweek.
“Which include, on Day One, launching the largest mass deportation operation of illegal immigrants that Kamala Harris has allowed into this country. It includes drill, baby drill, and expediting permits for nuclear, for fossil fuels, for an above-all energy approach that’s going to bring down the cost of living in this country,” she said.
Trump will begin operations to deport millions of undocumented immigrants when he starts his term, campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Wednesday morning.

“It includes, on Day One, bringing Ukraine and Russia to the negotiating table to end this war and returning to the very tough sanctions on the Iranian regime, so we can stop the chaos in the Middle East,” she said.
Trump adviser Jason Miller said Day One will be a return to the policies in effect when Trump left office, “such as put all of his strong border policies back in place.”
“The previous administration didn’t need any acts of Congress to go and break the border, and so all we have to do with regard to the border is put his policies back in place,” he said. “We can secure it and start making the country much more safe.
“Also we can get a lot of the energy exploration going, which of course that will help with bringing down the cost of things and stop the out-of-control inflation that we’ve seen,” Miller said.
Trump said controlling the border and ridding America of criminal illegal immigrants are among his major priorities.
“We obviously have to make the border strong and powerful and, and we have to — at the same time, we want people to come into our country,” he said in a Thursday interview, according to NBC.
“And you know, I’m not somebody that says, ‘No, you can’t come in.’ We want people to come in,” he said.
Trump said he will spend what is needed to carry out his deportation plans.
“It’s not a question of a price tag. It’s not — really, we have no choice. When people have killed and murdered, when drug lords have destroyed countries, and now they’re going to go back to those countries because they’re not staying here. There is no price tag,” he said.
Trump said, voters “want to have borders, and they like people coming in, but they have to come in with love for the country. They have to come in legally.”
Tom Homan, Trump’s former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, last month previewed what mass deportations could look like, according to CNN.
“It’s not gonna be — a mass sweep of neighborhoods. It’s not gonna be building concentration camps. I’ve read it all. It’s ridiculous,” Homan said.
“They’ll be targeted arrests. We’ll know who we’re going to arrest, where we’re most likely to find ‘em based on numerous, you know, investigative processes,” he said.
