President-elect Donald Trump’s border czar Tom Homan has informed Republican lawmakers about the need to manage expectations regarding the initial deportation operation of the incoming administration. This caution is due to limited resources, as per multiple sources familiar with the discussions.
While there have been suggestions from Trump’s supporters about detaining and deporting undocumented individuals in the US, the feasibility of these plans largely hinges on the resources and funding available to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), an agency that has faced budget constraints in the past.
