President Donald Trump ordered a new blitz on Democrat cities which which will see huge numbers of illegal immigrants rounded up for the ‘largest mass deportation in history.’
In the president’s new surge even more ICE agents will flood some of America’s biggest population centers, including Los Angeles, Chicago and New York.
It represents a massive escalation and comes after days of violent anti-ICE protests nationwide against Trump’s tough immigration policies.
‘Our Nation’s ICE officers have shown incredible strength, determination, and courage as they facilitate a very important mission, the largest mass deportation operation of illegal aliens in history,’ Trump wrote on social media.
‘These, and other such Cities, are the core of the Democrat Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base, cheat in Elections, and grow the Welfare State, robbing good paying Jobs and Benefits from Hardworking American Citizens,’ Trump said.
He revealed his new crackdown plans after a week of immigration enforcement efforts in Los Angeles, California, where protests escalated into violence.
That prompted Trump to respond by sending in the National Guard and hundreds of Marines.
Trump’s actions there triggered angry responses from Democrat leaders – including California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass – who claimed the president was needlessly inflaming the protesters by sending in the military.
But the president hit back against criticism of his deportation efforts, blaming Democrats for allowing their cities to become sanctuaries for illegal immigrants.
‘These Radical Left Democrats are sick of mind, hate our Country, and actually want to destroy our Inner Cities — And they are doing a good job of it!’ Trump wrote. ‘There is something wrong with them.’

He blamed Democratic governors for allowing their cities to turn from ‘once Idyllic Towns’ into ‘scenes of Third World Dystopia.’
The president went on to order ICE agents ‘to do all in their power to achieve the very important goal of delivering the single largest Mass Deportation Program in History.’
He described his efforts as ‘REMIGRATION’ aimed at ‘preventing the admission of ANYONE who undermines the domestic tranquility of the United States.’
‘To ICE, FBI, DEA, ATF, the Patriots at Pentagon and the State Department, you have my unwavering support. Now go, GET THE JOB DONE!’ he concluded.

California Governor Gavin Newsom speaks during a press conference
Newsom continued his war of words with Trump, which began when the president sent federal troops to California to help quell the riots in Los Angeles.
The California governor painted himself and his family as a victim of Trump’s aggression toward the state.
He revealed that the president’s policies had made his teenage daughter cry.
‘I have a 15-year-old who quite literally came home from school crying because she was told on her last day of school — God as my witness — because she was told her daddy was getting arrested,’ Newsom revealed on The Daily podcast hosted by the New York Times.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson described Trump’s deportation efforts as ‘terrorism’ and compared the standoff between America’s mayors and the Trump administration to the Civil War era.
‘There should be no question to what our country would look like had the Confederacy won – we’re seeing it on full display,’ he said.
He also called for Chicago residents to ‘rise up’ against ICE and federal law enforcement efforts.
‘It’s a war on our culture. It’s a war on our democracy. It’s a war on our humanity. I am counting on all of Chicago to resist in this moment because, whatever particular vulnerable group is being targeted today, another group will be next,’ he said. ‘None of us are immune from this disease.’
Trump’s announcement also comes as New York City goes to the polls in the Democratic primary for mayor.
Current mayor Eric Adams is skipping the primary and running as an independent.
Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, who resigned after he was accused by state employees of sexual harassment, is now running as a Democratic candidate.
New York State Rep. Zohran Mamdani is also expected to compete, and he has campaigned as a Democratic socialist.
