WASHINGTON (CHATNEWSTV) — The White House on Friday announced the commencement of deportation flights, a move signaling President Donald Trump’s firm stance on illegal immigration.
“President Trump is sending a strong and clear message to the entire world: if you illegally enter the United States of America, you will face severe consequences,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
The administration did not disclose details about the scope of the flights or the nationalities of those being deported. Critics argue the policy could escalate humanitarian challenges, while supporters praise the move as a measure to restore order at the U.S. border.
The announcement comes amid ongoing debates over immigration reform and border security in Congress.
