Blackwater CEO Erik Prince has presented President Trump with a plan to start deporting 500,000 illegal aliens per month. We’ve made no secret of the fact that the federal government’s deportation efforts have been a weak and flaccid disappointment thus far.
ICE and the Department of Homeland Security are barely catching 1,000 illegal aliens a day after the Biden regime allowed as many as 20,000 per day to sneak into the country for four straight years. If he really wants to achieve his goal, Trump should seriously consider this plan from Prince.
Prince’s plan is a 26-page blueprint that’s been given to President Trump’s advisors. The plan calls for setting up processing centers on military bases. A private fleet of 100 planes and a “small army” of deputized private citizens would carry out the plan. The blueprint recommends aggressive tactics to round up 12 million illegal aliens and deport them before the 2026 midterm elections.
This would be wildly popular with the American people. It would also ensure that the Democrats don’t have 12 million extra voters to steal control of the House or Senate in 2026.
The plan would cost the taxpayers an estimated $25 billion to carry out. Given that every illegal alien represents a net drain of $68,000 in food stamps and other public assistance over their lifetime, 12 million deportations would mean $816 billion in savings. That seems like a good investment.
Despite President Trump’s ambitious goal to conduct the largest deportation effort in history, the government doesn’t seem capable of doing it. Things are going far too slowly. Pakistan deports an average of 400,000 illegals every month when it decides to ramp up enforcement. The Eisenhower administration deported 3 million illegals in six months back in the 1950s. That was more than 16,000 deportations a day, without taking weekends off.
ICE and DHS have only been arresting between 700 and 1,100 illegals per day. Keep in mind that arrests don’t always lead to deportations. President Trump, Border Czar Tom Homan, and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem have all expressed frustration at how pitifully slow things are going. Two top officials at ICE were replaced because they couldn’t get their act together. Kristi Noem has deputized another 600 employees from the State Department to have them help with deportations.
To get rid of 12 million illegals in the next two years, the government would have to ramp up its current efforts by about 2,200%.
“It is unlikely that the government could swell its internal ranks to keep pace with this demand …in order to process this enormous number of deportations, the government should enlist outside assistance,” notes the Blackwater blueprint.
Unfortunately, there’s no indication that Trump’s underlings have shown him this plan. Maybe he’ll read about it here.
On the brighter side, Tom Homan has begun arresting employers who harbor illegal aliens under Section 8 USC § 1324. ICE raided a bakery in Los Fresnos, TX, last week and arrested eight employees. The employers were charged with felonies under existing federal law.
Section 8 USC § 1324 makes it illegal for anyone to harbor or shelter a known illegal alien in any building or vehicle. Unfortunately, it’s rarely enforced. Unscrupulous employers in the US know that historically, there’s almost zero chance of getting in trouble for hiring illegal aliens. The owners of the bakery in Los Fresno now face between 5 and 20 years in federal prison.
If Homan arrests a couple dozen additional employers—including high-profile ones who run Big Ag corporations—it would send a clear message. If the illegals can’t get jobs here because employers are afraid to hire them (as they should be), it would be a huge incentive for illegals to go back home on their own.
Prince’s plan calls for deputizing 10,000 citizens, with priority given to military veterans, former police officers, and retired ICE and Border Patrol members. They could receive expedited training and get to work right away. Holding camps could be set up on US Army bases within a week.
This deportation effort was President Trump’s central campaign promise and it was one of the main reason why he was reelected. We want him to succeed for the sake of our children and grandchildren. He should seriously consider Blackwater’s plan to assist in this operation.
