How We Achieve Mass deportations without ICE enforcement
American Thinker ^ | 04/26/25 | Chris Boland

Posted on 04/26/2025 8:18:01 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

While it is encouraging to see the Trump administration shut down the southern border and deport a few plane loads of violent, gang-affiliated illegal aliens, it is a drop in the proverbial bucket.

There are, by most conservative estimates, between 20 and 30 million illegal immigrants currently residing in the U.S. If the Trump administration were to deport 10,000 per week, it would take over thirty-eight years to deport them.

Judging by the federal judiciary’s activism since Trump assumed office, we can expect legal challenges to each and every deportation order. With this in mind, we could double the time expected to deport the illegal immigrants and project a finish line in about 76 years. Since this time period exceeds the life expectancy of nearly every person alive in the country today, perhaps it would be most prudent to wait for the illegal aliens to die.

But there is a better way: enforce existing law, and it has the future of making sure the illegal immigrants will deport themselves.

One problem:

Employers in many industries, such as construction, hospitality, landscaping, retail, and maintenance, know it is against the law to employ illegal immigrants, but they also know that there is no enforcement. More importantly, there is NO WILL to enforce.

if businesses were fined $1000/day for each illegal hired, the fines would bankrupt any company over time. Just enforce what is already on the books and they would have no mo et if you cut off their many, many welfare and child handouts. They are allowed to walk over and we pay them to breed. That could be ended in one day. I wish someone, anyone would do this. Trump commands an actual army. Do it. roll over the marxist judges that are paid for

RE: 150,000 criminal illegals already deported!

OK 150,000 in 3 months. How long will it take to deport at least 10 million ( perhaps 20 million )?

Under appropriately (sufficiently) inhospitable conditions, yes! They will self-deport.

Oh sure, I’m all for exponential growth. Seriously, this is the only thing that could work. I hope Trump is considering this.

Hire Bounty Hunters to find and get the illegals - Dead or alive they still get paid.

My estimate would put it around 40 million. It will take multiple administrations to make much of a dent in the number. Many (most?) will never be deported. That doesn't mean we shouldn't try.

President Trump is working to starve the money machine that the Democrats have built to funnel taxpayer money to illegal aliens.

He has also done a good job paving the way for deportations. A good example it the requirement that all aliens in the US register with the US government in accordance with long standing INS laws.

Any alien, legal or illegal who did not register by the deadline is subject to criminal and civil penalties and deportation regardless of their "status"

If you look around and begin to realize that you can’t earn a living where you’re at, to continue living, you’ll definitely pull a “Sam Kinison”.

40 MM sounds about right.

Sorry Chris Boland, but E-Verify didn't work, and there are many who are willing to ignore E-Verify even if it were mandated. E-Verify became mandatory, for who? Those known to be citizens of this nation.

More stupidity offered up that does not solve the issue of illegal entry into this nation.

I’m hoping. This is literally the only thing that can work. Cut off their money/food. No food stamps, no hand outs. With them gone, we could actually have a revival. A golden age. That’s no MAGa cheerleading, we could actually have a golden age without millions of violent retards to babysit, hanging around our necks

Getting rid of birthright citizenship will be a big help. No welfare, no schooling of their kids needs to be looked at again by the SCOTUS. That and the threat of getting picked up on the street will force many to leave. But if they can’t get work or housing they will leave in droves.

“...hanging around our necks...”

...and moronically fornicating up while “driving” taxis, Ubers/Lyfts, passenger cars, box trucks, etc., creating utter havoc and chaos on the public roadways.

The municipal courts are OVERRUN with ticketed “parties” requiring expensive translation services. Another racket.

It is a federal crime to employ illegal aliens. Imagine how much MORE effect the arrests of 15000 business owners would have.
