Trump Issues Dire Warning to Three Major
Trump Orders Largest-Ever Deportation Campaign
On June 15, Donald Trump declared the “single largest Mass Deportation Program in History,” targeting cities like Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago. “ICE Officers are herewith ordered… to do all in their power,” he posted on Truth Social. The plan mobilizes ICE, FBI, DEA, and ATF to ramp up arrests to 3,000 per day.
Protests and Federal Force in Cities
Nationwide protests erupted after ICE raids, with Los Angeles seeing violent clashes and a citywide curfew. Trump sent National Guard and Marines, marking a rare federal deployment not seen since 1965. Civil rights groups condemned the actions as overreach.
Legal and Political Pushback
Sanctuary cities sued, arguing Trump exceeded his authority and violated constitutional limits. Legal experts criticized the use of the Alien Enemies Act and the federalization of local forces. Barack Obama warned against turning immigrants into “national enemies.”
Economic and Human Costs
Deportations disrupted industries and spread fear among immigrant communities. Some U.S. citizens were mistakenly detained. “Constant fear” was reported in schools and Hispanic neighborhoods. International governments issued travel warnings for U.S. cities affected by protests.
