Trump Eases Deportations on Farmers, Workers, Targets Criminals
The reality is all illegal immigration is inherently criminal—crossing the border unlawfully breaks U.S. law. Yet, the focus on violent offenders—drug traffickers, rapists, murderers—leaves many recent arrivals unchecked. Over the past four years, millions entered under weak border policies, and they must be prioritized for deportation. Most pressing are the hundreds of thousands of military-age Chinese men who slipped through undetected, a glaring security risk. If war looms, it could erupt on American soil, exploiting these gaps.
While deportations have spiked, the pace falls short of promises, with some immigrants self-deporting amid ICE’s shadow. Congress must demand ICE expand operations, especially in Democrat-led cities like Los Angeles and New York, where protests flare. National security hinges on removing recent entrants and potential threats, particularly those Chinese men, alongside hardened criminals.
