Donald Trump and his border czar, Tom Homan, are reportedly unhappy with the current number of deportations.
Mass deportation of illegal immigrants was a central plank of Trump’s presidential campaign, and his voters are eagerly anticipating the removal of millions of aliens who have broken U.S. immigration law.
However, NBC reports that Trump and Homan are disappointed with the numbers so far and are demanding that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) ramp up their operations.
The report states:
A source familiar with Trump’s thinking said the president is getting “angry” that more people are not being deported and that the message is being passed along to “border czar” Tom Homan, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and acting ICE Director Caleb Vitello.
“It’s driving him nuts they’re not deporting more people,” said the person familiar with Trump’s thinking.
…
A source familiar with internal conversations at ICE said Homan has a daily conference call with ICE agents in which he has been known to express his frustration with ICE numbers.
Another source said Homan is “unhappy” and has “made his unhappiness known” about the relatively low numbers of arrests and deportations.
Approximately 8,000 people have been detained since Trump took office last month, although some of them have been released, and many are still awaiting deportation.
While this is still an improvement on the Biden administration’s efforts, it is still well below the numbers required to fulfill Trump’s promise of deporting millions of people.
In order to deport just one million migrants a year, which would still only represent a fraction of the total number of illegal aliens residing in the United States, ICE will need to increase their numbers to 2,700 arrests a day.
The deportations aren’t going quickly enough. I filmed 50k illegals cross in Lukeville in 7 weeks. Hundreds of thousands crossed in that one area alone in 7 months. Gotta speed stuff up. MAGA pic.twitter.com/iMGW2078zr

A Trump spokesperson White House spokesperson defended the administration’s record so far in deporting criminal illegal aliens.
“After four years of the Biden administration’s outright incompetence and negligence, the Trump administration has re-established a no-nonsense enforcement of and respect for the immigration laws of the United States,” they said in a statement.
“Hundreds of violent, predatory, and gang-affiliated criminal illegal aliens have already been rounded up and deported by ICE since President Trump took office — and the Trump administration is aligned on securing our borders and ensuring that mass deportations are conducted quickly and effectively to put Americans and America First.”
Start throwing some fag governors in prison where they belong. The mayors will come around if you do. Don’t let those ahos intimidate you. The boyz in the big house like those tiny Mayor “booties”.
sounds like we need to greatly expand the number of ICE agents.
Start shooting some of those 400 lb. caravan “hikers”.
They need to root out the moles.
Someone warned Aurora, CO.
Run ICE like a war.
No one gets told where they’re going to bust migrants until their feet touch the ground in said area.
Those tubby street talkos leak too much anyway. No wonder their husbands all run away to America looking for a gringo wife.
Since when do states control the borders?
Not sure how much I believe about this. So much of it seems like a Leftist tactic of driving a wedge between Trump and his supporters.
It hasn’t even been a month. I think President Trump and Mr. Homan are owed a grace period.

Plenty of anonymous sources, but lots of specific names of people in the administration. Smells like lots of BS.
“I think President Trump and Mr. Homan are owed a grace period.”

Nothing starts out at full speed.
Except for the media’s BS which has no throttle.
A source familiar........................
Again
I think this is a great idea.
Since the Federal Gov't declined to do so. Just ask governor Abbott of Texas.
The problem is that someone keeps on leaking locations where the raids are taking place, STOP LEAKING, JUST DO IT and thats it
It appears that there are leakers embedded in Homan’s group alerting people scheduled to be grabbed. Just saw a news story where the targets in CO magically are gone when officers show up.
I say go for volume, even if it is workplace and shelter raids.
“Just saw a news story where the targets in CO magically are gone when officers show up.”

Sounds like a breakdown in pre-raid surveillance.
They need to stridently increase the pressure to self deport.
1. Cut them off from all government services.
2. Strident workplace enforcement including criminal charges against employers.
3. $5,000 payment to each person that deports themselves (any age) as long as they agree to an ID chip. Along with free transportation.
4. Those who self deport are eligible to apply for any current and future immigration program offered by the US.
5. Those who must be forcibly deported will be forever banned from any current and future immigration program, and will be chipped against the will upon deportation.
The kid gloves have got to come off. Their November 5th asskicking wasn’t enough. They want more. Sick bass turds.
