Donald Trump..a president of action..

[Bob Riebe]

“ As of early 2026, reports have indicated that Trump has continued to face criticism for bypassing Congress and the judiciary in his second term, with some observers labeling his actions as "authoritarian" or "spin dictatorship". ”

           Well then:
          Franklin D. Roosevelt frequently pushed through transformative New Deal legislation with immense speed, particularly during his first 100 days, often leveraging a compliant Congress and massive public support to overcome opposition
. While not technically bypassing constitutional, process, he utilized executive power, fast-tracked voting, and public pressure to force action, notes The Wilson Quartely. -- I guess he is following Democratic Party modes.

Haven't seen Congress or the judiciary seeking Trump's approval to do their jobs either.

   Quoting Gomer Pyle.. Surprise...surprise !  Now that is simply amazing !   ...That Pres Trump should ever face criticism for any reason ! 

  President Trump doesn't accept his $400,000 paycheck, builds a monumental, new "United States Reception Room" at the cost of $200 million, yet costs the taxpayers
   nothing.  He stops several wars already in progress..
   
  With seemingly no assistance from EU or NATO, he has tried to bring to an end, just one more prosperity defeating, perhaps yet another 20 year war in Ukraine.

   To these endless two decade long wars, Pres Trump has let's them know we are not playing that game as done by previous presidents.

   All those wars do, is provide more billions for the world's globalists, while draining away the nation's treasure, autonomy and slay or disable much of it's current generation!

     ....And still, the spendthrifts and chicken-hawks berate him !

Seen where the US Govt has gotten rid of 386,826 govt workers in President Trumps first year. That’s a whole lot of swamp leaches no longer sucking the life blood out of America.
    How many millions of illegals have been exported again?

Well….gotten rid of 386,326 people NO…he just made them unemployed. Now they are on unemployment or welfare.   Millions of illegals….how does one deport a million people?” I am curious about the mechanics of the idea. How was that accomplished? How do they all get rounded up? And shipped off?

  Obviously, ICE is doing their job, despite the freakos who are trying to stop them.  ..And don't discount the voluntary deportees !

         DHS is shattering records with more than 605,000 deportations and 1.9 self-deportations

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced historic progress in securing the homeland, highlighting a year of record-breaking achievement of more than 2.5 million illegal aliens leaving the U.S.

Since January 20, 2025, DHS enforcement operations have resulted in more than 605,000 deportations. DHS has prioritized removing the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens as part of the Trump Administration’s efforts to return law and order to the United States.

Additionally, thanks to the comprehensive efforts of DHS law enforcement, 1.9 million illegal aliens have voluntarily self-deported since January 2025. We encourage all illegal aliens to use the CBP Home app to get a free flight home for Christmas and $1,000.

“The Trump Administration is shattering historic records with more than 2.5 million illegal aliens leaving the U.S. DHS has deported more than 605,000 illegal aliens and another 1.9 million have self-deported. Since January 20, DHS has arrested more than 595,000 illegal aliens,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “Illegal aliens are hearing our message to leave now. They know if they don’t, we will find them, we will arrest them, and they will never return.”

The ex govt employees were useless and got paid while doing nothing and now they get paid less and are just as useless. The illegals? Who cares as long as they’re deported…

 Pres Trump says.....   their Air Force is obliterated, their air defense is about gone, to be finished soon. Their 32 ship Navy is at the bottom of the sea...

  Their Army is incapable of responding, and their third or fourth round of choices for Supreme Leadership will soon be neutralized.   

  Their Army headquarters is totally destroyed and their Navy control center is vaporized.

     .....Other than that, they are doing OK !

Bob: I appreciate your response. Those are, however, just numbers. I am curious about how it is done…. the rounding up, the actual shipping out.

[Bob Riebe]

Bob: I appreciate your response. Those are, however, just numbers. I am curious about how it is done…. the rounding up, the actual shipping out.

            Current deportation numbers are primarily derived from administrative data published by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), specifically U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
. These figures, often reported by fiscal year, include formal removals, voluntary departures, and, controversially, self-deportations.
Key elements in determining these numbers include:

    ICE and CBP Data: ICE reports on removals of individuals from the interior, while CBP reports on encounters and removals at the border.
    Voluntary Departures: Reports often include individuals who agree to leave voluntarily, sometimes with assistance, which has been a major component of recent figures.
    Targeted Operations: Data reflects arrests made by ICE during enforcement actions aimed at specific individuals, including those with criminal records.
    Court Records: The TRAC (Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse) uses data from immigration courts to track removal orders.
    Contested Data: Some reported figures, particularly those involving "self-deportations," are contested by research centers for being overestimations.
    Fiscal Year Tracking: Removals are tracked from Oct. 1 to Sept. 30, with data released in annual and sometimes monthly reports.

The figures, therefore, are a combination of formal, documented removals at borders, internal apprehensions, and, depending on the source, estimated voluntary departures, often aggregated in official DHS press releases or ICE annual reports.
