As president, Donald Trump can move swiftly to gut President Obama’s signature immigration policies by ramping up deportations and ending a program that has given temporary work permits to immigrants brought to the country illegally as children.
Nearly a third of the 742,000 so-called Dreamers — those given protection under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program — live in California and are potentially at risk of losing legal status.
Using the same executive authority that Obama claimed to create DACA and other initiatives, Trump also can quickly fulfill his promises to severely restrict the number of refugees admitted each year and to effectively bar visitors from countries with large Muslim populations.
Trump said Thursday, after meeting with Obama at the White House and Congressional leaders on Capitol Hill, that immigration and border security would be among his top priorities when he takes office in January.
People will be really, really happy,” he said. Asked if he would work with Congress to ban Muslim immigrants, Trump walked away without answering.
Trump’s aides have begun drafting instructions that he can issue on his first day in office for the nation’s 5,000 deportation officers to begin rounding up more people for removals, according to two advisors to his transition team.
“There is vast potential to increase the level of deportations without adding personnel,” said Kris Kobach, the Kansas secretary of state and a member of Trump’s immigration policy transition team.
By giving more authority to Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, Trump easily could boost deportations by more than 75% in his first year in office, Kobach said.

Nothing but a good thing. The invasion of America has been underway for decades. Time to end it and send them back to whatever third-world hellhole out of which they crawled.
Right now, there are dire predictions of riots in the streets if Trump does not give into the pressure groups pushing for amnesty for the simple reason that President Obama has used massive protests as intimidation to force his agenda.
After the first few of the Obama Era style semi riot/mass protests by legal alien “activists” is met by ICE agents with a fleet of paddy wagons and deportation orders, this kind of in your face foolishness will come to an abrupt halt
Trump needs to convert La Raza’s revolutionary street intimidation into a deportation opportunity
Dreamer program, such a nice gentle ring to it
Trump doesn’t have to do anything but rescind Obama’s EO and enforce the laws.
Investigate in California, looking for vote fraud by illegals. Any illegal who voted in for US House, US Senate, or President, regardless of who they voted for, should be deported and permanently barred from reentry. Then, yes, revoke Dreamer and all other programs that reward criminal behavior.
Keep wailing about this LA/NY Slimes and Wa ComPost... half of them will self deport.
Yes. In conjunction with this:
1) Pass bullet proof Voter ID laws
2) Meticulously scrub voter registration roles, and keep scrubbing them continuously
3) Demolish any existence of felony voting
4) Create a bullet proof and simple method to ensure our military personnel are never disenfranchised of their right to vote.
This should ensure conservative majorities for generations
I am looking forward to the time when following the LAW comes back into fashion and breaking the LAW again has consequences. Thank you, Jesus!
Build the wall
Enforce laws that require citizenship proof for benefits, voting, school enrollment, any government involved activity and especially any job.
Any business or government hiring illegal people, large fines and criminal charges.
With no work possible, and no government benefits of any kind, self deportation happens quickly. No need to round anyone up.
Good news, good news, good news!
I am almost tired of winning - already. I am not used to it. It is a shock to my system. Like to much sugar all at once.
If they are illegal they go.......If you rob a banks you got to prison....oh! Unless you are a Clinton!, but maybe that will come too”.............
“Trump needs to convert La Raza’s revolutionary street intimidation into a deportation opportunity.”
Precisely.
Excellent !
You betcha. If they want to be educated in our colleges, they can ask Mexico to add the cost to the WALL. America has no more freebies until her own people are taken care of again.
Little reported was Trumps promise to cut off Federal funding to sanctuary cities. This will bring them to heel in short order, I can’t wait to see their stupid faces.
When the MSM ramps up their effort to undermine President Trump we need to use every tool at our disposal to let those who finance their efforts know we hold them accountable for that effort.
Obama’s legacy was based almost entirely on the extra-constitutional “authority” of his pen and phone, and can be erased just as easily LEGALLY by President Trump.
I am so Glad Kris Kobach is our Secretary of State!
