In the president’s own words:
Next week ICE will begin the process of removing the millions of illegal aliens who have illicitly found their way into the United States. They will be removed as fast as they come in. Mexico, using their strong immigration laws, is doing a very good job of stopping people…….

….long before they get to our Southern Border. Guatemala is getting ready to sign a Safe-Third Agreement. The only ones who won’t do anything are the Democrats in Congress. They must vote to get rid of the loopholes, and fix asylum! If so, Border Crisis will end quickly!

Similarly to Ocasio-Cortez’s claims about concentration camps, the president’s announcement about forthcoming immigration measures is already making headlines. Thus far, Americans have not received briefings on exactly how “millions” of illegal immigrants will face deportation.
Likewise, ICE has yet to release an official statement.
