First Flights of Illegal Immigrants to Guantanamo Bay Confirmed.

President Donald J. Trump’s administration has initiated the transfer of illegal aliens to Guantanamo Bay, with the first flights reportedly underway. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced the beginning of the deportation flights on February 4. The action follows Trump’s recent promise to utilize the facility, commonly referred to as Gitmo, to hold the most dangerous illegals.

Leavitt emphasized that Trump is taking definitive steps against criminal aliens following the signing of the Laken Riley Act. She explained that these measures are intended to prevent the U.S. from becoming a “dumping ground” for criminals from various countries. This policy also includes collaborative efforts with Venezuela and Colombia to repatriate their nationals.

Trump is turning to Guantanamo partly due to concerns over whether certain countries will keep their criminals in detention. As another option, El Salvador‘s President Nayib Bukele has also offered President Trump the use of prison facilities in his country for migrant criminals.

Describing Gitmo as a secure and restrictive facility, Trump expressed confidence that this strategy would impede the return of illegals to the U.S. He emphasized the administration’s resolve to address what they view as criminal activity linked to illegal migration, affirming that the facility is “a tough place to get out of.”

Trump’s Border Czar Warns New Jersey Governor Faces Jail for Allegedly Hiding an Illegal.

President Donald J. Trump’s border czar has threatened to jail the Democrat Governor of New Jersey for claiming he was allowing an illegal alien to live at his home. Tom Homan indicated interest in seeking legal action against Governor Phil Murphy after Murphy said he had invited an illegal to live above his garage over the weekend, adding, “And good luck to the feds coming in to try to get her.”

“I think the governor’s pretty– foolish thing what he said because I’ve gotten a hold of it. We won’t let it go. We’ll look into it,” Homan told Fox News.

“[I]f you knowingly, knowingly harbor and concealing an illegal alien, that’s a violation of Title 8, United States Code 1324. I will seek prosecution or the secretary will seek prosecution,” he warned.

Murphy’s office later claimed his statement was misinterpreted and insisted no illegal migrant resides at his home.

Homan has previously stated that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have been prioritizing dangerous illegal migrant criminals for arrest, noting that migrants wanted for murder and child rape have already been taken into custody. However, Homan warns that all illegals are in the sights of ICE, noting that entering the United States illegally or overstaying a visa is a crime.

Win-Win: Criminal Migrants Thank Trump for Deportation.

Illegal immigrants deported by President Donald J. Trump say they are actually thankful for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) action against them as, in some instances, it cut short their U.S. prison sentences. Since taking office on January 20, 2025, President Trump has moved swiftly to deport illegal immigrants with criminal histories—especially those currently being held in American prisons.

“I started crying with happiness,” said Carlos Suezo—a 54-year-old illegal immigrant from Honduras—after being released from a U.S. prison into ICE custody and promptly deported to Ciudad Juárez, Mexico. Suezo had one month remaining on a six-month prison term for unlawfully entering the country after being deported in 2017 following his arrest for a gun crime. President Trump has prioritized the removal of illegal immigrants who are currently being held in the U.S. prison system.

Suezo described his fellow illegal immigrant inmates as being “so happy” that their prison sentences were being cut up to several years short, even if it was because they were being swiftly removed from the country. In his first week in the White House, Trump oversaw the deportation of 7,000 illegal immigrants either held in American prisons or detained by ICE.

Meanwhile, on the Mexican side of the border, a number of migrants who had hoped to use the former Biden government’s CBP One app to enter the U.S.—before Trump shut the program down—are gathered in temporary encampments. Even among these individuals, now barred from legally entering the U.S., few blame Trump.

Margelis Tinoco—a 48-year-old woman who went viral after her CBP One app appointment was abruptly canceled in the moments after Trump took office—says she still doesn’t blame the America First leader. According to Tincoco, Trump is right to deport those who are “damaging the country.”

America’s Birthright Citizenship Laws Make It an Outlier Among Peer Nations.

The United States is an outlier among wealthy, developed nations in that it has almost no restrictions on birthright citizenship, also known as jus soli (“right of the soil”) citizenship. Under the current interpretation of U.S. law, any child born on American soil—even if both parents are illegal immigrants—is granted citizenship. According to legal precedent, only the children of diplomats and other similar foreign officials are explicitly excluded. President Donald J. Trump has issued an executive order to end the practice, but this is subject to a legal challenge.

While Canada also allows unrestricted birthright citizenship, the practice is far less common in Europe and Asia. In fact, not a single European state allows for unrestricted birthright citizenship—with most requiring either one parent to be a citizen or legal permanent resident and, in some cases, mandating that at least one of the parents reside in the country for a set period.

Historically, Europe experienced significant migration waves, particularly post-World War II and during the following economic reconstruction period. This led to spontaneous, often unregulated, immigration. European countries initially expected migrants to return home after their labor was no longer required, but regulations evolved over time. By the 1970s, amid economic challenges, restrictions became more common, altering naturalization policies. Notably, the United Kingdom shifted from a jus soli to a more jus sanguinis (“right of blood”) citizenship norm, requiring parental citizenship to obtain British nationality. As of 2004—when Ireland abolished its expansive jus soli laws—Europe ceased offering unrestricted birthright citizenship entirely.

Meanwhile, Australia and New Zealand have followed similar paths, with Australia abolishing jus soli citizenship in 1986 and New Zealand following in 2006. In Asia, birthright citizenship is extremely rare, with most countries imposing strict conditions to attain citizenship.

WATCH: Demonstrators Blocking Freeway to Protest Trump Deportations Wave Foreign Flags.

Thousands of demonstrators, many waving foreign flags, took to the streets in Los Angeles on Sunday, protesting against President Donald J. Trump’s deportation efforts. The demonstration led to significant disruptions when participants blocked U.S. Route 101, one of the state’s major freeways.

The protesters initially gathered at Olvera Street, a location with historical ties to the eras of Spanish and Mexican control over the area. From there, they marched on Los Angeles City Hall. As the demonstration progressed, participants moved onto U.S. 101, blocking all lanes and causing significant traffic disruptions.

The blockage resulted in traffic congestion stretching in both directions and affecting surface streets in the vicinity. The California Highway Patrol (CHP) reported that it took over five hours for the freeway to be cleared and fully reopened to traffic. However, CHP Lieutenant Matt Gutierrez confirmed on Sunday evening that despite the extensive disruption, there were no arrests.

Similar protests by climate activists in Britain have led to severe injuries and even deaths, with motorists diverted onto alternative routes involved in crashes, and people en route to hospital significantly delayed.

President Trump’s Border Czar, Tom Homan, has vowed that the mass deportations the America First leader promised on the campaign trail will be executed “with no apology.”

“We’re going to do this operation with no apology. We’re going to make our communities safer. Once we lock that border down and continue this operation, you’re going to see fentanyl deaths decrease, illegal alien crime decrease, sex trafficking decrease. It’s all for the good of this nation, and we’re gonna keep going. No apologies, we’re moving forward,” he said.

NY Teen Murdered by Pakistani Relatives in So-Called ‘Honor Killing.’

A 14-year-old girl born and raised in New York has been brutally murdered by her Pakistani father and uncle in a so-called “honor killing” for the “crime” of posting videos on TikTok. Hira Anwar’s relatives brought her to Pakistan, supposedly on a family vacation, to carry out the killing, in a case that highlights ongoing issues with integrating migrants from countries with values radically at odds with the West.

Anwar, described as a typical, cheerful teenager when away from her strict home environment, was subjected to a draconian code of conduct by her parents, both of whom had immigrated from Pakistan to the U.S. two decades ago. Her murder took place in Quetta, the capital of Balochistan, with her father confessing the crime to the Pakistani authorities.

This case is not an isolated incident but part of a broader pattern of “honor killings” among the Pakistani community, both domestically and abroad. According to the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan, the number of such killings stood at 588 reported last year, 490 in 2023, and 590 in 2022. However, it is likely many are not officially recorded.

Honor killings are also perpetrated by migrants from other Muslim-majority countries, and not only in the United States. For instance, Somali refugee Mohamedamin Abdirisek Ibrahim was charged with strangling his pregnant Swedish girlfriend to death with a lamp cord last year, as he did not want his parents to find out about their relationship.

Germany Votes AGAINST Stopping Illegal Immigration.

The German legislature has voted down a bill restricting illegal immigration to Western Europe’s largest economy, put forward in response to a spate of deadly terrorist attacks. The bill would have imposed more restrictions on illegal immigrants and on the ability of migrants already present in Germany to import their family members to join them from abroad.

The notionally center-right German Christian Democratic Union (CDU), formerly led by Angela Merkel, failed to pass the new immigration bill through the German parliament, by a vote of 350 to 338.

Friedrich Merz, leader of the CDU and likely the next Chancellor of Germany after next month’s election, tried to pass the legislation with the help of the populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. However, resistance from left-wing parties meant the vote failed overall.

Earlier this week, the CDU passed a motion on immigration with the help of the AfD, leading to former party leader and arch-globalist Merkel slamming Merz for working with the populists. On Friday, January 31, offices of the CDU in Berlin were attacked by far-left Antifa extremists, calling the CDU party members “fascists” for daring to work with the AfD.

While the CDU and their sister party, the Bavarian Christian Social Democrats (CDU), are expected to come first in next month’s election, they are not expected to come close to an outright majority. The AfD, meanwhile, is projected to win second place, but a coalition between the two parties seems unlikely. Historically, the establishment CDU has proven more willing to ally with the currently governing Socialists, Greens, and others to shut the AfD out of government.

The failed vote on restricting immigration comes just weeks after a migrant from Africa murdered a CDU party member. Christoph Rosenschon, 26, was stabbed to death in his home.

Dem-Run Border Town Declares Emergency Over Trump Deportations.

A Democrat-run border town in Arizona has declared a state of emergency, claiming President Donald J. Trump’s illegal alien deportation policies could impact the local economy. Douglas City Council’s Democrat Mayor, Jose Grijalva, declared the state of emergency this week. The Arizona town, located close to the Mexican border, is tied economically to Agua Prieta, Mexico, just two miles away.

Mayor Grijalva claims that this move is not politically motivated, but the declaration passed the council with a narrow 3-2 vote.

Douglas is a small town in Cochise County, Arizona, home to approximately 16,500 residents, while Agua Prieta has around 91,000 people. Grijalva claims residents of the Mexican account for “around 70 percent of our sales tax and any border policies effect our economy”—although this should not be an issue for Douglas if its customers from Agua Prieta are entering the U.S. legally.

So far, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) has arrested over a thousand illegals across the country, many of them wanted for serious crimes up to and including murder. President Trump’s Border Czar, Tom Homan, has stated that ICE is currently prioritizing dangerous criminals for deportation but that all illegals fall under ICE’s purview.

Immediately after his inauguration on January 20, President Trump closed the major border crossing at El Paso, Texas, as part of his policy to secure the southern border. El Paso saw waves of illegals flood across the border from Mexico under the previous Biden-Harris regime, including an incident in March of last year where migrants started a riot, attacking National Guard troops.

Trump Set to Impose Tariffs on Three Major Countries Saturday.

President Donald J. Trump plans to introduce tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico starting Saturday, according to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. On Friday afternoon, Leavitt announced to reporters that Canada and Mexico will face 25 percent tariffs, while a 10 percent tariff will be applied to China unless the countries agree to enact measures to curb the flow of illegal fentanyl into the United States.

This decision stems from Trump’s pledge to implement economic tariffs on the three to force their action to assist American operations to secure its borders, deport illegal immigrants, and end drug trafficking. “These are promises made and promises kept by the president,” Leavitt stated, highlighting that the tariff on China targets the distribution of illegal fentanyl originating from there, which has resulted in numerous American deaths.

Details on specific products subject to the tariffs remain unclear, but Leavitt indicated that more information would become available within the next 24 hours. In response, both Canada and Mexico have indicated they may retaliate with their own tariffs. Outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau emphasized readiness for a response.

“It’s not what we want, but if he moves forward, we will also act,” Trudeau stated.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum assured that her country is prepared with several strategies should the tariffs be enforced. She emphasized the importance of defending Mexico’s dignity and sovereignty and called for respectful dialogue.

Trump had initially issued the tariff warning in November, urging Canada and Mexico to address drug trafficking and illegal immigration. In response, Trudeau and Trump met at Mar-a-Lago to discuss the tariffs. Trump reportedly suggested that financial difficulties from tariffs could be avoided if Canada joined the U.S. as a state.

Soros-Owned Radio Station Exposes Identities of Undercover ICE Agents.

A radio station owned by leftist billionaire George Soros has publicly revealed the locations of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents operating undercover in San Jose, California. A KCBS 740 AM radio host disclosed details about ICE operations on January 26. The information shared by Bret Burkhart detailed the types of unmarked vehicles and the specific locations where ICE agents were present.

Burkhart cited updates from social media posts made by the Rapid Response Network, an organization opposing deportation efforts. Burkhart’s broadcast might have endangered the agents’ safety by potentially exposing their covert operations.

Soros acquired Audacy, a major U.S. radio station network, for $400 million in February 2024, including KCBS 740 AM.

The Santa Clara County pro-illegal alien Rapid Response Network initially reported these activities through its online platforms. They listed descriptions of the unmarked vehicles and disclosed locations where ICE officers were allegedly positioned.

ICE began operations under border czar Tom Homan immediately after the inauguration of President Donald J. Trump on January 20. Homan stated that ICE was prioritizing violent criminal illegals, some of whom are wanted for serious crimes like murder or child rape.

So far, ICE has arrested over 1,000 criminal illegal aliens across the country. In a recent interview, Homan stated that all illegals were on ICE’s radar, however. “It’s a crime. And that’s the way it’s supposed to be. I wouldn’t feel comfortable if I’m in Switzerland illegally. So we’re going to enforce the laws of this country,” he said.
