President Donald Trump is planning on using the Insurrection Act to remove illegal immigrants from the United States, The Daily Caller has learned.
According to multiple senior administration officials, the president intends to invoke the tremendous powers of the act to remove illegal immigrants from the country.
Were doing the Insurrection Act, one official said.
Under the Insurrection Act of 1807, the president has the authority to use the National Guard and military in order to combat unlawful obstruction or rebellion within U.S. borders. The act was last invoked in 1992 by George H.W. Bush to quell the Los Angeles riots, and was also used by Eisenhower in 1957 to enforce school desegregation in the south.
An official expressed concerns that Trumps use of the acts powers would face legal challenges, pointing to the lawsuits against the presidents travel ban from majority-Muslim countries. However, as the official noted, the travel ban ultimately prevailed in the Supreme Court.
In addition to the Insurrection Act, the president is also considering declaring the country full and insisting that the U.S. can no longer handle the massive influx of illegal immigrants. 2019 is currently on pace to reach the highest levels of illegal immigration in a decade.
If you take a ship and it holds 1,000 people maximum one more person and the ship is going to collapse, the official explained. The country is full.
Our hospitals are full, our detention centers are full, they added.

Rouge judges???
Not bad! I would suggest Puerto Rico as an alternative. That way, when the resettlement is completed, grant them independence and be done with it.
You read a lot of things, few of which seem to be true. Maybe you need to focus on facts and not Confederate revisionist websites?
You just don't like it when the things I tell you turn out to be true.
There is that nitpicking from you that we all know and love so very well! :)
I'm glad your memory is perfect, but i'm fallible. I'm lucky I correctly remembered the number.
So what is the real number then? How many political prisoners did Lincoln arrest and imprison?
LOL!
Jail time for Judges is not necessary or desireable because it just creates martyrs.
Remove them from the bench and stop their attempts to destroy our country.
Yawn....
Whenever the shooting begins let me know. Not advocating violence, but at this point it’s all talk and we’re at war.
A judge acting outside of lawful authority is the very definition of High Crime. High Crime against USConstitution and against We-The-Peoples right to lawful government, i.e., lawful courts, lawful separation of Judicial branch power/authority from other branch authority.
Assuming that's true, you weren't listening to the Senate Republicans who very clearly said they weren't going to be confirming any replacement AG's. The pox lay with such senators. We still have some of those hanging around, as personified by Sen. Richard Burr.
Sanctuary cities are in violation of federal law. I’m all for this.
Well, what are you waiting for Mr President.
Start using!!!!
Absolutely no way to boot the illegals out. Too damn many and they have disbursed thought out the Country. We don’t have the force to do the job and with what we have would take many years. Damage is done.
We demand the Insurrection Act be directed to those thieving Somalis in Minnesota.
The thieves ripped off taxpayers for $300 million daycare fraud.
$100 million went back to ****hole Somalia, to terrorist strongholds.
And dont forget the insurrection by the declitorized Somali Muslim in Congress.
A US Congessman involved in the politics of a foreign counry must be removed from office.
This one committed other crimes and can be charged wih several felonies for immigration fraud.
