In six executive orders on his first day in office, President Donald Trump declared a national emergency at the southwest border and ordered his Cabinet officials to seal it and mobilize the armed forces to defend it.
Trump also designated the drug cartels operating at the border as terrorist organizations and ordered an overhaul of the federal refugee program.
And in an order to protect the states, Trump suspended the entry of aliens into the United States.
The millions of Hispanic “migrants” who entered the country during the Biden administration also got a clear message. Trump killed the “La Casa Blanca” Spanish page for the White House.
His goal: Stop the illegal-alien invasion of the United States that his predecessor invited and subsidized.
The most important of the wide-ranging package of immigration orders is Trump’s declaration of a national emergency because of the Biden “migrant” and illegal-alien invasion.
“America’s sovereignty is under attack,” the order says:
Our southern border is overrun by cartels, criminal gangs, known terrorists, human traffickers, smugglers, unvetted military-age males from foreign adversaries, and illicit narcotics that harm Americans, including America.
Those young, military-age males inspired 10 FBI officials to warn top leaders on Capitol Hill that the United States was undergoing a “soft invasion.”
Trump likely didn’t think the invasion was all that soft, but in any event he declared that it has “caused widespread chaos and suffering in our country over the last 4 years,” not least the “the horrific and inexcusable murders of many innocent American citizens, including women and children, at the hands of illegal aliens.”
