Illegal Immigrants With Terror Ties Pouring Across Northern Border – RedState– redstate.com Source Link Excerpt:
The United States/Canada border is remarkable in many ways. Over 5,000 miles long, it’s the longest land border in the world. For over 200 years, it’s not only been the longest land international border but the most peaceful one, essentially demilitarized, with no serious territorial disputes since the War of 1812. But it’s also a difficult border to secure, with not only length but remoteness making things complicated — and factor into the situation that the bulk of American border security efforts are directed south. But that leads to a possible security risk.
Is it possible that bad actors, including possible terrorists, are trying to get into the United States before Donald Trump takes office? There is some evidence that this is the case; reports indicate a spike in illegal border crossings on our northern border.
Federal agents are arresting a record number of individuals on the terrorist watchlist at the northern U.S. border, including a Jordanian national with ties to terrorism who recently was removed from the country after illegally entering from Canada.
Border Patrol agents in the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Blaine Sector apprehended Jordanian national Mohammad Hasan Abdellatif Albana, 41, near Lynden, Washington, a few miles from the Canadian border.
A new caravan of at least 1,500 migrants formed in southern Mexico on Wednesday — with some openly admitting they were desperate to cross into the US before President-elect Donald Trump takes office.
The migrants — mainly from Central and South America and including large numbers of young children — began marching from the city of Tapachula near the Guatemalan border, where thousands of migrants have been stranded after being stopped by Mexican authorities from going farther.
“It is going to be more difficult, that’s why we are going in hopes of getting an appointment quicker so we are able to cross before he (Trump) takes office,” said Yotzeli Peña, 23, one of many migrants from Venezuela in the caravan. “That would be easier.”
A new poll from Napolitan News Service shows a majority of Americans support deportation, with 31 percent strongly supporting it.
Poll: Majority of Americans Support Trump’s Plan to Declare Border Emergency– lidblog.com Source Link Excerpt:
A new poll finds that a majority of Americans support Donald Trump’s plan to declare a border emergency and to begin deporting millions of illegal aliens.
This is exactly what the 2024 election proved when Trump won in a landslide with border issues being his top concern.
The Napolitan News Service survey of 1,000 registered voters was conducted online by pollster Scott Rasmussen Nov. 18-19. It asked: “President Trump has said that he will declare a national emergency because of the illegal immigration problem. This would let the Trump Administration use military force to help with a mass deportation of illegal immigrants. Do you favor or oppose declaring a national emergency to address the problem of illegal immigration?”
In response, 31% of those polled said they strongly favor declaring a national emergency, and 24% said they somewhat favor it. Combined, 55% of Americans support Trump’s plan. Those in favor include 62% of Hispanic voters, 57% of white voters, and 50% of Black voters.
About 1,500 migrants form a new caravan in Mexico. Here’s what it means– abcnews.go.com Source Link Excerpt:
TAPACHULA, Mexico — About 1,500 migrants formed a new caravan Wednesday in southern Mexico, hoping to walk or catch rides to the U.S. border. The migrants are mainly from Central and South America. Some say they are hoping to reach the United States before Donald Trump’s inauguration in January, saying they think it might be more difficult after that. They started out walking from the city of Tapachula, near the border with Guatemala, where thousands of migrants are stranded because they do not have permission to cross further into Mexico.
Migrant caravans began forming in 2018, and they became a final, desperate hope for poorer migrants who do not have the money to pay smugglers. If migrants try to cross Mexico alone or in small groups, they are often either detained by authorities and sent back to southern Mexico, or worse, deported back to their home countries. In that sense, there is safety in numbers: it is hard or impossible for immigration agents to detain groups of hundreds of migrants. So police and immigration agents often try to pick off smaller groups, and wait for the main body of the caravan to tire itself out. Usually the caravans stop or fall apart within 150 miles (250 kilometers).
There is no safety in numbers, however, against threats, extortion or abduction by drug cartels in Mexico, which have become heavily involved in migrant trafficking. The cartels charge migrants or their smugglers for permission to cross their territories along the border. In addition, the gangs often kidnap migrants, hold them in terrible conditions or torture them until they call relatives to send money for their release. The biggest obstacle, though, is the searing heat, dehydration and distance: it is over 1,100 miles (1,780 kilometers) from Tapachula to the nearest border crossing at Matamoros, across from Brownsville, Texas. And that is the shortest, but also one of the most dangerous routes. It would mean 16 days of straight walking even for an adult with no rest stops; many of the migrants come with their children.
Denver Mayor Declares War on Federal Law: Vows to Use Police and Citizens to Block Deportation of Illegal Migrants, Including Gang Members | The Gateway Pundit– www.thegatewaypundit.com Source Link Excerpt:
Democrat Mayor Mike Johnston of Denver, Colorado has declared war on President Trump’s efforts to enforce immigration policies.
Mayor Johnston has made it clear that he will go as far as using city police and local volunteers to physically prevent the deportation of illegal immigrants, including those with potential gang affiliations.
In a recent interview with Denverite, Johnston unapologetically declared his intention to turn Denver into a fortress of resistance against immigration enforcement, framing his actions as a moral crusade.
“We won’t change that, because those are one of our core values,” Johnston said, adding, “We’re not going to sell out those values to anyone. We’re not going to be bullied into changing them.”
“I think we are gonna continue to be a welcoming, open, big-hearted city that’s gonna stand by our values,” Johnston added.
The State of Texas is ready to help President-Elect Trump’s campaign to send the recent flood of illegal immigrants back where they came from, starting with criminals first. Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham has offered the incoming Trump administration 1400 acres of land on the border with Mexico to use as a staging area for operations.
Buckingham said, “My office is fully prepared to enter into an agreement with the Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or the United States Border Patrol to allow a facility to be built for the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history.”
Texas Land Commissioner Offers 1,400 Acres for Use in Deportation Operations › American Greatness– amgreatness.com Source Link Excerpt:
On Tuesday, Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham formally offered the incoming Trump Administration the chance to make use of just over 1,400 acres of Texas land in the planned mass deportations of illegal aliens.
As ABC News reports, Buckingham sent a letter to President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday, saying that 1,402 acres of land, located along the southern border and purchased by the state of Texas, can be put to use in the construction of “deportation facilities.” The land had been purchased from a farmer by the Texas General Land Office, with the original purpose of constructing a state-funded wall along the border.
“My office is fully prepared to enter into an agreement with the Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or the United States Border Patrol to allow a facility to be built for the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history,” said Buckingham’s letter.
In an interview on Fox News, Buckingham reaffirmed that she is “100% on board” with the planned deportation operation. She explained that the 1,400-acre area in question is “essentially farmland, so it’s flat, it’s easy to build on.”
“We can very easily put a detention center on there, a holding place as we get these criminals out of our country,” she continued.
The offer from Texas comes as Democratic governors and mayors have vowed to resist the planned deportation operations, choosing to double down on their so-called “sanctuary” status as they intend to harbor illegal aliens and refuse to cooperate with federal authorities.
On Monday, President-elect Trump confirmed that he was strongly considering the use of a national emergency declaration to carry out the deportations, which would grant him broader executive powers including the use of the military in doing so. He has vowed to begin “the largest deportation operation in American history” on his first day in office.
“Local and state officials on the frontlines of the Harris-Biden border invasion have been suffering for four years and are eager for President Trump to return to the Oval Office,” said Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt, who was recently announced as the president-elect’s pick for White House Press Secretary. “On day one, President Trump will marshal every lever of power to secure the border, protect their communities, and launch the largest mass deportation operation of illegal immigrant criminals in history.”
The notorious Venezuelan Gang “Tren de Aragua” has reportedly established satellites in 16 U.S. states thanks to the planvasion by the Biden administration. The memo comes from the Department of Homeland Security. The memo concluded “As the population of Venezuelan nationals continues to increase, the potential for violent TdA migrants is highly probable.”
Tren de Aragua has already set up shop in these 16 states, Homeland Security warns – nypost Source Link Excerpt:
The vicious Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua has expanded its territory to at least 16 US states — an area that includes half of America’s population, The Post has learned.
Homeland Security officials last week were warned in an internal department intelligence memo about TdA’s growing presence across the country, most recently in Washington, DC, Virginia, Montana and Wyoming.
The gang already has footholds in California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin, according to the memo and previous reporting by The Post.
An internal Homeland Security memo obtained by The Post warns of TdA’s expanding footprint across the US.
The gang has only increased its “violent tendencies” as it spreads, the memo added.
Tren de Aragua’s arrival in the nation’s capital and nearby Virginia coincided with “increases in migrant populations” there, the memo stated.
“As the population of Venezuelan nationals continues to increase, the potential for violent TdA migrants is highly probable,” the memo warned.
In one run-in with the cutthroat gang in Virginia, cops in Fairfax County arrested three suspected members in August 2023 for shoplifting.
One of the suspects had a fake Venezuelan ID, and all three bore the gang’s signature tattoos.

Homan Says Trump Will “Designate The Cartels As A Terrorist Organization”– www.louderwithcrowder.com Source Link Excerpt:
There is probably no group that has caused more terror for Americans than the cartels. This is why it is odd that our government has yet to label them as a terrorist organization and implement policies that benefit them in some of the most evil ways.
The cartels would not be able to run their criminal organizations in America if the government did their job. That is why Homan claims the new administration will treat these people like the scum they are, as “criminal cartels in Mexico have killed more Americans than every terrorist organization in the world combined.” This means you should “Take 911 and times it by a hundred.”
The Mexican cartels commit the most evil crimes known to humanity and it’s unfathomable how they are still operating. It’s also unsettling that they can make a profit in America because the government had the power to shut them down yesterday.
President-Elect Donald Trump confirmed the “rumor” that he will be declaring a national emergency on day one, and he will use the military to deport the most dangerous illegal aliens while also using the military to combat the drug cartels on the border.
The main argument against deporting illegals comes from the MSM, who makes the argument that without illegal aliens “who will pick the crops?” The apologetic is not unsimilar to the argument made in favor of keeping slavery in America before the Civil War. Former Senior Trump Official Ken Cuccinelli thinks “using the military” will drive illegal migrant numbers “into the dirt.”
If Trump Deports Illegals, Who Will ‘Pick the Crops’?– www.newsbusters.org Source Link Excerpt:
Once again, leftists in the media are wondering how the country will go on if deportations of illegal immigrants take place and they lose what they see as their imported servant class.
CNN Business Reporter Matt Egan incredibly warned viewers that if President-elect Donald Trump successfully deports illegal aliens, someone else will have to labor in the fields. During the Nov. 18 edition of Inside Politics with Dana Bash, Egan claimed that 41% of farm workers are “unauthorized” and 1.7 million people in the “food supply chain” are “undocumented.” Rather than show any concern for unemployed Americans, let alone the out-of-control humanitarian crisis, Egan chose to focus on whether deporting them would cause higher food prices. “One farmer in Michigan told me that mass deportations would be, quote, devastating to the AG economy because there just would not be enough people to pick the crops,” Egan said.
