Deputy Chief of Staff Directs Aggressive Mass-Deportation Push, Orders 3,000 Daily Arrests
Deputy chief of staff Miller ordered agencies to raise daily immigration arrests to 3,000 and coordinate administration-wide mass-deportation campaign aligning with the president's immigration plan.
Overview
Miller, the deputy chief of staff, pushed ICE to increase daily immigration arrests to 3,000 as part of a broader deportation strategy requested by the president.
Miller directed federal agencies FBI, CBP, ICE, HHS and DOD to report on and execute components of the mass-deportation campaign, coordinating operations.
Officials say Miller is aggressively implementing the president's immigration vision while emphasizing operational efficiency and interagency reporting to measure progress.
The directives target nationwide immigration enforcement, with immediate emphasis on raising arrest numbers and delivering regular reports to the White House for oversight.
Advocates warn of civil rights and humanitarian concerns, while supporters argue stricter enforcement fulfills campaign promises and aims to deter illegal immigration.
