State Senator Michael Williams might be just one of five Republican candidates running in Georgia’s gubernatorial race, but he’s the only candidate who has a “Deportation Bus.”
Williams announced the “Michael Williams Deportation Bus Tour” on Tuesday, and the campaign is certainly turning a lot of heads. The so-called “Deportation Bus” is a converted school bus that’s been painted in an intimidating palette of black, white, and gray, and features slogans such as “Follow Me to Mexico” and “Danger! Murderers, Rapists, Kidnappers, Child Molesters, and Other Criminals on Board.”

Williams plans to drive the bus through Georgia’s three sanctuary cities, Clarkston, Decatur, and Athens. Breitbart reports that Republican strategist Roger Stone and “other potential high-profile Republicans” will join Williams on the tour.
In his campaign ad announcing the tour, Williams explains that he wants to use the bus to draw attention to little known federal program 287(g), which allows sheriff’s deputies to become deputized as acting ICE agents. The ad was removed by YouTube for “violating” the website’s policy on “hate speech,” but it’s still viewable on Twitter. Watch below.
When I’m Governor, we’re going to deport criminal illegals in GA by making the 287(g) illegal deportation program STATEWIDE

Williams said last month that, if implemented in Georgia, 287(g) would send a strong message: “don’t come to Georgia is you’re not [here] legally.”
“We have 159 counties in Georgia. Imagine if all these counties had their own acting ICE agents,” Williams said. “So as soon as we identify who these illegal immigrants are, primarily because they have broken yet another [criminal law], we can begin the deportation program or process to get them out of our state and out of our country immediately. We don’t have to wait for anything.”
Expectedly, Williams’s “Deportation Bus” is drawing a fair amount of criticism – even among conservatives. But if we’ve learned anything from Donald Trump’s campaign and his presidency, it’s that a hardline approach is what gets results; and America can’t afford to be anything but hard and firm on illegal immigration.
Anything to the contrary only incentivizes illegals to push the envelope in getting away with more and more and more. The “Deportation Bus” might be brash, but that’s exactly the approach we need to take on illegal immigration.
Share this if you support the “Deportation Bus!”
UPDATE – YouTube has banned the ad for “hate speech” according to Williams.
I announced the Michael Williams Deportation Bus Tour yesterday and the liberal media is losing their minds over my tour! CBS compared it to Hitler while AJC reporter Greg Bluestein called it a “stunt.”
While I was writing this email, YouTube BANNED my Deportation Bus ad for “Hate Speech”! They will do anything to keep our message from voters like you! This is the same video that aired on FoxNews Channel multiple times today.
No attention grabbing joke is safe while YouTube is watching.
He was scheduled to make an appearance in Gainesville, Ga. about 50 miles NE of Atlanta, but according to the local newspaper he was forced to cancel because law abiding Liberals were planning to vandalize the bus, spraying it with paint at the minimum.
Not surprised.
We put a MAGA magnetic sticker on one of our cars which my wife then drove to the local ALDI to pick up a couple items, leaving her car in the open air parking lot in broad daylight. When she returned in about 10 minutes she discovered that our car had been “Keyed”.
Here in Hall County, the majority of the students in the schools are Spanish Speaking – but the school board is not even allowed to ask their status because that would be a violation of FEDERAL law.
Spanish is the main language spoken in the Walmart in Gainesville, and it is very difficult or impossible to find an english speaker.
In Oakwood, a small town about 5 miles from Gainesville (the town where my wife’s car was keyed), it is not quite that anti-American The Walmart alternates the “Muac” — or whatever you call the music playing over the PA system. One english, one spanish.
Also, I received a letter from the Georgia Gun Owners organization with the results of series of Second Amendment questions they sent to each candidate. Michael Williams was the only one who returned pledged to support the 2nd Amendment 100% . The rest, including the RINO front runner, darling of the RNC, were either in favor of stricter gun controls or simply refused to respond.
If I lived in his district, he’d have my vote. I wish him the best of luck and I hope he wins. (And wins big)!
I think it is a good first step! For all you liberals, the law is not hate speech! If you don’t like the law then change it if you can but until then, shut the F*** up you commie A**hole. Just leave this country!
Should show a deportation boat sitting in the bay with a hole in the bottom!
Hahahaha, far better ad than the “F..k NRA” Pat Davis did. Hope this guy wins!
