Mass Deportation: this is going to be expensive

WSJ: Trump Told Inner Circle Some Mass Deportation Policies Went Too Far
WASHINGTON—“President Trump is seeking to lower the profile of his mass deportation effort, and has directed his top advisers to adopt a new approach on one of his central campaign promises, according to people familiar with the matter.
In conversations with top advisers and his wife Melania, Trump has become convinced that some of his administration’s deportation policies have gone too far, and voters don’t like the term “mass deportation.” The president has told them he wants to see more attention on arresting “bad guys” and less chaos in American cities, according to people familiar with the matter.
The desire for an immigration reset is being driven in part by Trump’s White House chief of staff, Susie Wiles, who believes the president’s immigration team has turned one of his marquee issues into more of a challenging issue ahead of the midterms, the people said. As a result, the administration is attempting to change not only how it talks about the issue—but also what actual enforcement looks like on the ground.”

Actually about 170,000. Aside from the fact that, for example, thousands are Haitians who were NOT illegal but living under protected status until Trump revoked that. Same for Venezuelans falsely alleged to be TdA gang members.

Bill in the works to continue TPS for Haitians gets bipartisan support in the House

A new POLITICO poll finds half of Americans — including one quarter of Trump’s 2024 voters — said his mass deportations campaign is too aggressive.
