Report: Trump plans raids on immigrants after inauguration
US President-elect Donald Trump plans to launch anti-immigration raids soon after his inauguration next week, US media have reported, citing government sources.
Trump’s incoming team plans to intensify immigration enforcement nationwide soon after he takes office on Monday, they said.
“We’re going to be doing operations all across the country,” one unnamed source was quoted as saying.
The incoming administration is reportedly finalizing a list of tough anti-immigration executive orders that are expected to be launched just hours after he is sworn in for four more years.
Tough anti-immigration measures were at the center of Trump’s election campaign in the lead-up to the 2024 US presidential election.
“Within moments of my inauguration, we will begin the largest domestic deportation operation in American history,” Trump promised in January 2024.
The new policy will affect immigrants already residing in the United States as well as the asylum seekers waiting to be processed at the US-Mexican border.
Trump is expected to order the mobilization of law enforcement agencies across the US government to help him deport record numbers of immigrants.
The Trump team plans to do away with a humanitarian parole program designed to provide a legal pathway to the US for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans.
This will potentially place hundreds of thousands of recent migrant arrivals who are currently able to temporarily work and live in the US in limbo.
