Donald Trump Jr. demanded “mass deportations” of illegal immigrants just as reports indicate that there have been over 1,000 “gotaways” escaping into the country per day since the beginning of October.
The former President’s son posted his declaration on the X social media platform, formerly known as Twitter, joining other conservative commentators who made the same statement.
“We need mass deportations,” he wrote, echoing a post from the Libs of TikTok creator, Chaya Raichik.
Trump Jr. also urged Americans to arm themselves so as to defend their families should, God forbid, something like what happened in Israel happen over here.
“You can never depend on the government to save you in a time of need. when seconds count. Cops are just minutes away. You need to be armed,” he told listeners to his “Triggered” podcast. “You can only trust yourself and keep your family safe.”

Trump Jr. Calls For Mass Deportations As Border Crisis Rages
Trump Jr.’s call for mass deportations comes as the latest numbers show the total count of illegal immigrants entering the country since Joe Biden entered the White House has hit roughly 8.6 million people.
That includes over 1.6 million known “gotaways” – people who have illegally crossed the border and escaped into the country. That “gotaway” number represents a figure greater than the population of Philadelphia.
And it’s getting worse.
Fox News reporter Bill Melugin cited the United States Border Patrol Chief in revealing that over 1,000 “gotaways” are invading the country on average per day in October.
Currently averaging over 1,000 known gotaways per day since October began, per US Border Patrol Chief. These are people purposely evading apprehension despite mass catch and release taking place. https://t.co/M8B55rSScV

Meanwhile, known terror suspects are attempting to cross the border at alarming rates – 659 appearing on the terror watchlist have been arrested in fiscal year 2023.
With over 1.6 million “gotaways” it is highly, highly likely that some on the terror watchlist managed to slip through the cracks.
“We have nation-state threats, we have terrorist threats … to think that there’s not just as bad or worse people in those getting away would be naïve,” former Border Patrol chief Rodney Scott warned.

Sobering Facts As The Former President Lays Out Plan To Deport ‘Anti-American Foreigners’
As reported by The Political Insider earlier this month, the number of illegal immigrants from “special interest countries” – countries with environments that potentially pose a national security threat – has skyrocketed.
Many of those countries include those involved in chaos in the Middle East.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) defines “special interest aliens” as “a non-U.S. person who … potentially poses a national security risk to the United States or its interests” and who has been “evaluated to possibly have a nexus to terrorism.”
NEW: Internal CBP data provided & confirmed by CBP sources reveals thousands of “special interest aliens” from mostly Middle Eastern countries have been apprehended by Border Patrol while crossing into U.S. illegally over last 2 years.
Syria: 538
Yemen: 139
Iran: 659
Iraq: 123…— Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) October 10, 2023
Border Patrol warns that the concern for these illegal immigrants coming from the Middle East is amplified because they “have little to no ways to vet them.”
Additionally, drug cartels have operational control over much of the border.
“Does DHS have operational control of our entire border?”

According to Border Patrol Chief Jason Owens, cartels are exploiting the crisis to smuggle people and deadly drugs into the United States.

We know mass releases of illegal immigrants are occurring in cities around the country. President Joe Biden’s border crisis undermines our national security in a myriad of ways.
Trump Jr.’s father, the leading GOP candidate for President, this week released an extensive platform designed to keep “anti-American and anti-Semitic foreigners” from continuing to infiltrate this country.
Donald Trump’s plan will seek to “reimplement a full suspension” of the State Department refugee resettlement program, while simultaneously vowing to “aggressively deport resident aliens with jihadist sympathies.”

“If you’re coming from somewhere full of people who want to kill Americans, we will not let you in,” he said during a campaign speech in Clive, Iowa.
The former President’s campaign announced a second term would lead to ICE being sent into “pro-Jihadist demonstrations” where they will “enforce our immigration laws” and “remove the violators from our country.”
