Trump plans national emergency declaration to use military for mass deportations

dawn.com

President-elect Donald Trump announced plans to declare a national emergency on border security and use the military for mass deportations of undocumented migrants. This follows his campaign promise to deport millions and address illegal crossings at the southern border. Trump's comments came via his social media platform, where he supported a post about reversing what he termed the "Biden invasion." He has appointed former ICE chief Tom Homan as his "border czar" to lead these efforts. Concerns have arisen among civil rights groups about potential surveillance and data use to identify immigrants for deportation. Critics argue that Trump's approach may infringe on privacy rights and civil liberties.
