TRUMP DRAWS A LINE IN THE SAND, PENS OP-ED VOWING TO INVOKE 225-YEAR-OLD LAW

Former President Donald Trump penned a candid and timely opinion piece for the
Des Moines Register published Wednesday, less than two weeks ahead of the Iowa
caucuses.

While he targeted voters in the first election of this year’s Republican
presidential primary race, Trump’s words applied to every American.

The GOP front-runner laid out the first day of his second term if he were voted
back into office, and made it clear President Joe Biden’s border policies would
be on the chopping block.

“The most urgent task facing the next president is to end Joe Biden’s
nation-wrecking nightmare on our southern border. I am the only candidate who
will stop this invasion — and I will do it on day one,” Trump wrote.

“On my first day back in office, I will terminate every open borders policy of
the Biden administration and immediately restore the full set of strong Trump
border policies,” he said.

The former president said he’d couple this with a mass deportation program.

“The millions of illegal aliens who have invaded under Biden require a record
number of removals,” Trump said.

One tool he vowed to use in this effort is a law passed in 1798.

“I also will invoke the Alien Enemies Act to remove known or suspected gang
members, drug dealers, or cartel members from the United States,” the former
president wrote.

Is America’s border crisis being allowed to worsen?
Yes No

He first announced his intention to employ the 18th-century law during the
Lincoln Day Dinner in Detroit on June 25, according to NBC News.

Actions like those Trump promised on “day one” can’t come soon enough. The
border invasion has increased to catastrophic levels under Biden.

According to Fox News, U.S. Customs and Border Protection registered more than
302,000 encounters with illegal immigrants crossing the U.S. southern border in
December alone.

As Trump noted in his Op-Ed, Biden “came in, canceled the border wall, ended
Remain in Mexico, ripped up my asylum bans, ended Title 42, and began resettling
millions of migrants into American communities at taxpayer expense.”

As family budgets were already being strained by Biden’s failed policies,
inflation and redistribution of wealth to Ukraine, extra mouths gobbling up what
was left was hardly what we needed.

We need to reverse this ASAP.

Catch-and-release policies must be put back into place. Millions of illegal
aliens who entered this nation under Biden should be sent home. The “Remain in
Mexico” policy and asylum bans should be re-enacted. The building of the border
wall must resume.

The honest, hard-working people of this nation are being overwhelmed by a
tsunami of illegal immigration enabled by corrupt officials who care nothing for
the rule of law and want to destroy the fabric of America.

Conservatives must fight to save it — and Trump’s plan for “day one” would be a
great start.

A Note from Our Staff:

Did you know that 90 percent of advertisers will have nothing to do with The
Western Journal? The liberal elites have put us on one of their financial kill
lists.

They did it because we’ve told the truth and spoken out against them for over a
decade. And since they couldn’t shut us up, now, they’re trying to starve us
out.

We’re turning to you because, frankly, we have to have your help. It might not
sound like much, but just one membership to The Western Journal can make a real
difference.

We don’t have a huge staff, big salaries, or deep donor pockets. We’re
family-owned and independent. But because we're independent from the elites, we
have to rely on readers like you.

Can we count on you for just a single membership? The cost of a month-long
membership is less than a single cup of Starbucks coffee. And, unlike with
Starbucks, you can be 100 percent certain that every penny we spend goes toward
fighting for traditional American values and against liberal elites.

Please help us continue exposing the truth. Please join today.

Thank you for reading The Western Journal!
