Illegal Alien Numbers in US Drop by 1.6 Million, and Democrats Are Freaking Out Over the Reason


RedState 

Every day, the Democrats seem to descend further into irrational, even outraged lunacy. They are on the wrong side of every 80-20 issue.

Illegal immigration is one of those issues. The American public overwhelmingly favors secure borders and removing illegal aliens, and the Democrats, nationwide, at all levels, oppose any such efforts - they are taking the side of criminals over American citizens. Nowhere is this more apparent than on this issue. 

The Department of Homeland Security is counting coup on a report from the Center for Immigration Studies, noting that 1.6 million illegal aliens have left the United States, most of them voluntarily, and many Democrats are red-faced and screeching angrily about that.

The statistics, from the Center for Immigration Studies, indicate that self-deportations are driving the trend. The federal government has provided financial incentives for illegal immigrants to leave and has run advertisements telling them they can only apply to return if they leave voluntarily.

"In less than 200 days, 1.6 MILLION illegal immigrants have left the United States population," DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement on Thursday. "This is massive. This means safer streets, taxpayer savings, pressure off of schools and hospital services and better job opportunities for Americans. Thank you, President Trump!"


DHS Secretary Kristi Noem Reveals the Number of Illegal Aliens Who Have Self-Deported—and It's Huge


These are great numbers. This is what President Trump campaigned on. This is what the American people voted for. This is what the American people want. More to the point, this is the law. The Democrats are fond of piously pronouncing "Nobody is above the law" when attacking the latest fabricated transgression of President Trump or indeed any Republican, but they don't apply their pronouncements nearly as piously when talking about people who are in our country illegally. You know - in violation of the law that nobody is above.

California's Governor Gavin "A Little Dab'll Do Ya" Newsom sent this spittle-flecked message:

Tensions are high between Democratic leadership and federal law enforcement in sanctuary cities, as there were immigration authorities outside Gov. Gavin Newsom’s rally in Los Angeles on Thursday, and at least one arrest was made by U.S. Border Patrol.

"WE WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED BY WEAK LITTLE DONALD TRUMP, THE CRIMINAL PRESIDENT!" Newsom’s office told Fox News Digital in an email.

Governor Newsom - wipe off your chin. 

It gets worse.

"When I look at the visuals of ICE agents masked on the street, taking people from their homes, taking people who are rightfully showing up for court. It reminds me of something that some of my ancestors had to go through, which is the KKK," New York City Council Member Nantasha Williams said this week.

The DHS and ICE are enforcing federal laws, those laws that, once again, Democrats would have us believe are null and void for illegal immigrants. The KKK were terrorists. It not only does a grave and insulting disservice to refer to ICE agents in this way, but it downplays the suffering many people - white and black - suffered at the hands of the KKK. This is historical ignorance on steroids.

And Minnesota's Governor, Tim "Great Walz of China," is truly coming unglued:

"I’m gonna start with the flashing red light — Donald Trump’s modern-day Gestapo is scooping folks up off the streets," former vice presidential nominee and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said in May. "They’re in unmarked vans, wearing masks, being shipped off to foreign torture dungeons. No chance to mount a defense. Not even a chance to kiss a loved one goodbye. Just grabbed up by masked agents, shoved into those vans, and disappeared." 

They are wearing masks because they are being doxed, their families threatened; they are being assaulted by angry mobs. You had nothing to say, Governor Walz, when mask-wearing goblins in your state were burning down small businesses in 2020, but somehow ICE agents doing so upsets you? The people being rounded up are criminals. No, when criminals are arrested, they are not given a chance to kiss their loved ones goodbye. That's not how any of this works.

DHS and ICE's efforts will of course continue. 1.6 million is a good start, especially when you note that the majority of those deportations were voluntary; people here illegally are realizing that the times, they are a'changing, that the United States will no longer casually disregard our immigration laws, and that if they take the USA's offer to self-deport, they can apply to come back legally, later, which offer will not be extended if they are deported involuntarily. There are at least 20 million more in the country illegally, so DHS and ICE have a lot of work to do; and don't doubt for one moment that unhinged rants like those above won't be laid at the feet of every Democrat candidate in the 2026 midterms.
