From the first day of Donald Trump's second presidential term, the administration has been offering a plan to protect the country from an invasion. Executive Order 14159, issued on the day of Trump's second inauguration, frames America as a country under siege by illegal immigrants, many of whom, it said, "present significant threats to national security and public safety, committing vile and heinous acts against innocent Americans." The invaders, the order insisted, intended to engage in "espionage, economic espionage, and preparations for terror-related activities."
To this end, the order instructed the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the attorney general to establish a new Homeland Security Task Force (HSTF) in every state.
