Trump is “struggling to increase deportations to fulfill” his campaign promise of a million expulsions in his first year, The Wall Street Journal said. Despite aggressive tactics and high deportation quotas, his administration has averaged “about 660 a day, compared with 742 a day in 2024.”
The Department of Homeland Security said Monday it would give $1,000 and a plane ticket home to any undocumented immigrants who opted to “self-deport,” calling the “historic” offer a “dignified way to leave the U.S.” Migrants who register for “voluntary self-deportation” through the Customs and Border Protection app will be “deprioritized for detention and removal,” DHS said, so long as “they are making meaningful strides” toward their departure.
You’re not getting shit except deportation
It’s a trap
Why does this seem like “You won a free boat! Just come to the police station to claim your prize.”
about 660 a day, compared with 742 a day in 2024
deportations are down with Trump again, I believe we had the most during Obama, because it was low key, with due process and local authorities were on it, now there is resistance, causing the opposite effect
Seems obvious to me that if you deport a lit of people, there are less people to deport. That’ll be a reason why so many justifications for deporting additional citizens.
Perhaps it’s likely that less people are entering the country now than were a year ago, what with the conditions there and all.
Interesting. Didn’t know they could allocate funds without Congress.
How would one apply for asylum in Canada for purposes of escaping persecution and violence of the United States government? asking for a friend. 🤔
the last time I looked they weren’t accepting refugees from America at this point
But if they have a baby they can get $5000!
Do they get $6000 clean if they have a baby and give it to adoption outside the US?
Melania and Elon, this is your chance.
Be a shame if everyone filled the little fascist application with bogus nonsense
Or pretend to be immigrants going home, get a thousand bucks, go on vacay, and come home since you’re a white American with several generations and definitely live there
Although if they fingerprint or smth idk that might be a bit inconvenient. But if they don’t and you as a full fledged American have a similar looking illegal friend, take his papers, go abroad, he seeems to no longer be in the US, then return with your 1k.
None of that will obviously work disregard everything don’t try fucking around the borders you’ll get send to the SA Gulags
Oh totally agreed, don’t mess with the border peeps cause you won’t have due process or any help
Move to Canada, walk across the border get $1000 go back to Canada. Repeat
Turns out, they are all out of thousand dollar bills, but they’ll give you a free vacation to El Salvador for the rest of your life.
No thanks I don’t like abstract paintings of clocks
