Trump will begin operations to deport millions of undocumented immigrants when he starts his term, campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt. The goal set by the Trump campaign is to detain and remove 13 to 25 million people, they plan to indefinitely detain them across various camps.
The operation is being called "the largest deportation in history" and it is estimated that it will cost around 88 billion tax dollars to complete. The current US prison population is only 1.8 million. It is estimated that they could remove 1 million people per year. Experts estimate families may be rounded up together, including individuals who are not illegal, including green card holders or citizens born to illegal migrants. Future Trump proposals also include backtracking on green cards that have already been granted and exploring legislation to remove the citizenship of those born to parents not born in the US.
Economist state that the mass deportation plan, if carried out as described by the Trump administration, will worsen the housing crisis and create an economic crisis in the long run.

It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.
While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change.
And they’re right.
This is one of the strangest things I’ve seen on Russian state TV
Correspondent Valentin Bogdanov finds a Trump supporter in Palm Beach at 3:30am local time who proceeds to give a rendition of the Soviet children’s song ‘May there always be sunshine’
He's got the senate, he's got the house, he's got the Supreme Court, and he's got the Presidency.
He can do what he wants now. There will be no checks and balances.
The dictatorship is here.
Some will applaud it, but even they will suffer under it too.
Rashida won in a state Kamala lost, in districts that flipped from Biden to Trump. These people didn’t suddenly turn right wing, they were actively lost by the Democrats who chose to ignore and patronize them.
Watching from outside the US, this is unbelievable...dumbfounded that this many Americans voted for the felon that already tried to overthrow your government.
WTF???
Regardless of how this finishes, the US has huge problems.
My fellow white women once again trading the rights and lives of others in exchange for a few crumbs and some tax cuts.
Try as you might, the men in your lives aren’t saving you a seat at the table. Your weakness doesn’t make you one of them, it makes you convenient.
Pathetic.
@MarkJacob16 @MuellerSheWrote This morning, before my wife and I were fully awake and out of bed, my five year old daughter came into our room and said, “Daddy, I want you to vote for the girl today.” I told her not to worry, that I was going to. She replied, “when I’m 18 I’m going to vote for the girl too.”
@RobertJMolnar Bro. Just take a bow and sit down for a minute. I’ve been watching you for a few weeks. I had hoped you would be right. But my man, you’re literally burying yourself, the hole is so deep. Just take a breath.
(🧵) ELECTION THREAD: I’ve been waiting all night to say anything substantive about what’s happened, as I felt—I still do—that I might say something I’d regret.
I hope you’ll consider following along as I try to process this with you all, and try to do it responsibly. Please RT.
