The 287(g) program to empower police into immigration enforcement agents has existed since 1996, yet went mostly unused for the past 30 years. The Obama administration tried to kill the program quietly before it became widespread. Now, the Trump administration has turned it into a ‘migrant arresting machine’.

“They have essentially set up a bounty hunter system and are incentivizing local/state law enforcement to detain anyone who appears to be undocumented” — Civil Rights advocates and DHS watchdogs warn that this program will leave migrants with nowhere to hide if more and more law enforcement agencies learn about it.

Patriot Rupert Lowe has launched his own party, Restore Britain, a challenge to Reform. This party calls for the Mass Deportations of illegal and legal migrants from Britain, by the millions, with detailed plans on how it can and will happen.

Remigration is a reality waiting for us to make it.

This didn't actually happen, this account made up the whole tweet and attached an unrelated video.

Vivek is not American and he is a scammer; Vivek should not be governor of Ohio. Unfortunately, his current Republican challenger Casey Putsch is stupid. President Trump is the leader, and it is only through him that anything useful has happened in the past decade, if not decades. This means any candidate that wants to be worth something needs to work with Trump. If you can't be serious and do that right, you are going to lose.

President Trump achieved record low migrants released into the US first term; his second term has an historic 9 months straight of zero releases into the US. Migrants are being deterred, detained and deported from America every month in a great volume, and it can still climb higher.

In early 2025, visas for legal migration declined by 16% for nonimmigrants and 20% for immigrants. This is from administrative denial and delay alone, before any of President Trump's travel bans, fees, visa freeze, asylum pause or other restrictions. That means the Trump administration is actively trying to cut legal migration regardless of the law.

As USCIS rolls out its first-time-ever armed agents and implements the vetting HQ, we should see a greater target on legal aliens.
Last year I said that the Trump Admin will turn USCIS into a weapon against legal migration and legal migrants, using bureaucratic procedures and strict vetting to turn away applicants, take away legal access and turn off the visa fraud pipeline.

Reports on the ground and in court say this is already happening—wait times and denials are up; mistakes made by a resident migrant, however small, recent or distant will face scrutiny. The agency is using lawyers and auditors to probe potential targets and pressure applicants.

Between 1990 to 2019 net migration to the U.S. was well over 1 million people per year, which President Trump was the first to cut last term. This term, net migration has fallen below 500k, that is overall 2025 numbers, and is predicted to drop by another half or more throughout 2026.

We are seeing significantly “slowed inflows of visa and green card recipients”, the “loss of Temporary Protected Status for immigrants”, elevated deportations and tighter legal entry options.

Utah House Bill 88 would cut off illegal migrants, unauthorized noncitizens from state-offered food benefits, housing aid, various medical services. Having decent Republican representation at a local and state level is necessary for us to pass useful laws to restrict and reverse replacement.

U.S. State Dept is now imposing visa sanctions on European politicians, lobbyists and other figures involved in censorship measures and other anti-speech pressure.
Reuters alleges that the U.S. state department plans to launch an internet access option for non-Americans to have free speech online, against the measures imposed by their govts. This would be a significant escalation in Trump's war on leftist censorship if true, and a boon for right wing movements developing in Europe.

These bills make state and local police officers, judges, teachers, social workers and others into an ‘auxiliary extension of the federal immigration system’; an alien who is ordered deported will be listed as a criminal in Tennessee, and all officials must report illegals to ICE
The Tennessee immigration enforcement plan is moving forward for state and local govt review. This package of bills adds penalties for teachers, employers, government officials, service workers and others who refuse or fail to turn in illegals to law enforcement, creating a deportation pipeline through schools, hospitals, jails, companies, etc.

Democrat Reps in the state are trying to stall and stop these reform measures from passing, hoping to prevent state cooperation with ICE. This is why we need to get rid of Dems wherever possible.

Under President Trump, even the Coast Guard and the fish cops are seeking out illegals to arrest. Surprise and repeat check-ins have been reported in Florida and Lousiana, leading to deportations. Aliens who are working and have 'no criminal record', according to their lawyers, are being swept up every day during unannounced raids.

A Honduran migrant tried to escape a U.S. Coast Guard migrant check by jumping into the water, but he could not swim and drowned there.

“Before [Trump] we would get boarded, but they never checked IDs for the other people working on my boat,” Anthony Tesvich, the captain of the boat from which the Honduran fled, explained.

Trump's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) is launching a nationwide campaign to identify and prosecute ‘naturalized citizens’ and noncitizen residents who may have participated in state or national elections unlawfully.

Registering to vote prior to naturalization is an unlawful act, and HSI is even ordered to pursue cases that were closed months or years before.
