The White House’s strangely strong denial that its ‘deportation force’ idea is back


Immigration and Customs Enforcement via AP)This post is updated with DHS confirmation that the draft memo is legit -- but that never made its way up the ladder. During the 2016 campaign, Donald Trump toyed with the idea of deploying a “deportation force” to round up and deport undocumented immigrants. But DHS also tells The Post that the draft memo is real, despite being a "very early, pre-decisional draft that never made it to the secretary." And even as this was happening, his team wasn't totally disowning the idea of a deportation force. And in that context, a deportation force of 100,000 National Guard troops seems to fit with what Trump was advocating.
