President Donald Trump announced plans to ramp up ICE raids rounding up illegal immigrants as part of the ‘largest deportation in history’ putting Democrat-run cities on notice.
‘Our Nation’s ICE Officers have shown incredible strength, determination, and courage as they facilitate a very important mission, the largest Mass Deportation Operation of Illegal Aliens in History,’ he wrote on social media.
The president ordered ICE Agents to some of America’s major Cities, naming Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York.
‘These, and other such Cities, are the core of the Democrat Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base, cheat in Elections, and grow the Welfare State, robbing good paying Jobs and Benefits from Hardworking American Citizens,’ Trump wrote.
The president revealed his plans after a week of immigration enforcement efforts in Los Angeles, California, where protests escalated into violence, prompting him to respond by sending in the National Guard and the United States Marines.
Trump’s actions triggered protest from California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass who claimed Trump was needlessly inflaming the protesters by sending in the military.
The president defied Democratic governors who had criticized his deportation efforts, blaming them for allowing their cities to become sanctuaries to illegal immigrants.
‘These Radical Left Democrats are sick of mind, hate our Country, and actually want to destroy our Inner Cities — And they are doing a good job of it!’ Trump wrote. ‘There is something wrong with them.’

He blamed Democratic governors for allowing their cities, which he described as ‘once Idyllic Towns’ to ‘scenes of Third World Dystopia.’
The president ordered ICE agents ‘to do all in their power to achieve the very important goal of delivering the single largest Mass Deportation Program in History.’
He described his efforts as ‘REMIGRATION’ in order to keep ‘preventing the admission of ANYONE who undermines the domestic tranquility of the United States.’
‘To ICE, FBI, DEA, ATF, the Patriots at Pentagon and the State Department, you have my unwavering support. Now go, GET THE JOB DONE!’ he concluded.

California Governor Gavin Newsom speaks during a press conference
California Governor Gavin Newsom continued his all out-messaging war against Donald Trump after he decided to send federal troops to California to help quell the riots in Los Angeles.
Newsom painted himself and his family as a victim of Trump’s aggressive posture toward California, revealing that the president made his teenage daughter cry.
‘I have a 15-year-old who quite literally came home from school crying because she was told on her last day of school — God as my witness — because she was told her daddy was getting arrested,’ Newsom revealed on The Daily podcast hosted by the New York Times.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson described Trump’s deportation efforts as ‘terrorism’ and said compared the standoff between America’s mayors and the Trump administration to the Civl War era of American history.
‘There should be no question to what our country would look like had the Confederacy won – we’re seeing it on full display,’ he said last week.
At a different press conference he called for Chicago residents to ‘rise up’ against ICE and federal law enforcement efforts.
‘It’s a war on our culture. It’s a war on our democracy. It’s a war on our humanity. I am counting on all of Chicago to resist in this moment because, whatever particular vulnerable group is being targeted today, another group will be next,’ he said. ‘None of us are immune from this disease.’
