We need millions deported': Trump's mass deportation pivot ruffles hardliner feathers
WND ^ | March 16, 2026 | Jason Hopkins, Daily Caller News Foundation

As the Trump administration appears to shift its sweeping mass deportation agenda, rattled immigration hardliners warn the move could become a midterm liability.

Major conservative groups are pushing President Donald Trump to make 2026 the year he shifts his mass deportation agenda into overdrive. However, the calls come at a time when the administration — reeling from two deadly shootings in Minneapolis and tanking public support for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) — is seemingly backing down from a wider deportation policy that targets all illegal immigrants, not just criminals.

With a razor-thin 217-214 GOP majority in the House of Representatives, the stakes for the president's agenda are high as midterm elections loom. Just a few House elections will decide whether Democrats can regain control of key committees, block major bills and become a general obstacle to the president's legislative priorities.

article: "seemingly backing down from a wider deportation policy that targets all illegal immigrants, not just criminals."

Nota bene: Illegal immigrants ARE CRIMINALS by definition.

We’re always just one election away from actually getting what we want.

The Dems get what they want every single time they elect their guys. We always need to wait “just one more election”.

It’s not called the stupid party for nothing.

The problem is that most illegals can fight their deportation in court - and left-wing groups are happy to fund their legal bills. Biden let in over 11 million illegals - if even half of them take it to court it could take decades to get them deported.

The 2030 census is looming.

The Supreme Court needs to determine that residency does not equal citizenship.

It’s not hardliners… it’s anyone who can do math. This is our last chance to get our country back. These illegals are already affecting house seat apportionment even if they don’t vote. If we don’t remove them now when the dems win or steal in 28 it’s all over. Trump knows this.

This is de facto amnesty.

How many US Citizens have been killed by illegal immigrants while the Minneapolis incidents were going on? What about murders, killings through car accidents, killings by illegal drugs brought into the US by illegal immigrants, etc.

Just use the damn military and get them all out. If you kick out the illegals you will no longer even have blue states!
