'Trump Announces Plan to Declare National Emergency, Use Military Assets for Mass Deportation'

Washington D.C., December 10 - US President-elect Donald Trump has confirmed that his administration plans to declare a national emergency and use military assets to implement a mass deportation program aimed at targeting about 8-10 million undocumented immigrants in the country.

The announcement comes ahead of Trump's inauguration on January 20, as he continues to push for a major overhaul of the US immigration system. In an interview with a right-wing commentator, Homan warned Democratic-governed states that have expressed resistance to the deportation program to "get out of our way" and promised that public safety and national security will be prioritized.

However, critics warn that mass deportations could lead to significant economic disruption, particularly in industries such as construction, agriculture, and hospitality. The American Immigration Council has estimated that nearly 14 percent of people employed in the construction industry are undocumented, which would disrupt all forms of construction across the nation.

Moreover, experts estimate that the cost of implementing a mass deportation plan could be as high as $300 billion to $1 trillion. While some argue that this measure is necessary to address concerns about national security and border control, opponents claim that it would lead to significant human suffering, particularly for families with undocumented members.

In another warning, liberal activists have pointed out that mass deportations could cause a spike in grocery prices due to the shortage of workers in essential industries. The American Immigration Council has also noted that nearly 5 million US citizen children live with an undocumented family member, which would lead to significant emotional and economic hardship upon separation.

The Trump administration's plan to prioritize public safety and national security has been met with skepticism from many experts, who argue that the human cost of mass deportation far outweighs any perceived benefits to border control.
