Ahead of Schedule and Under Budget: Deporting Millions of Criminal Aliens Won’t Be as Hard as the Left Suggests

Note: This article was inspired by an op-ed column written by David Mastio and published in the Kansas City Star on December 19th. It is, however, my original work, supported by my own research. Any errors or omissions are, of course, my responsibility. This is my third article on deportation published in November and December, 2024 in American Thinker.
President Trump, and his nominee for “Border Czar,” Tom Homan, have made it clear they are dead-serious about deporting millions of violent criminals who are also criminal aliens.
They intend to start with the nearly 1.5 million criminal aliens already served with Orders of Deportation who have either not left America or who have snuck back in across Biden’s remarkably porous border over the past four years. Their initial target, according to Vice President-elect J.D.Vance, will be 1.0 million criminal aliens per year, focusing on those already legally ordered to leave America and not return.
Critics, including those cited by CNN recently, allege that the costs of just one million deportees would be in the neighborhood of $1.0 trillion, a preposterous sum.
