Illegal Aliens Fleeing New York City Ahead of Expected Deportation Efforts

As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to resume office, illegal aliens in the sanctuary city of New York are already fleeing out of fear of the expected deportation operations that the 45th and 47th president has promised.

As the New York Post reports, several illegals admitted that their reason for fleeing was the expectation that the new president will follow through on his campaign pledge to carry out the largest mass deportation operation in American history. A 31-year-old Venezuelan illegal named Kervin Nava confessed that he is “making arrangements somewhere else,” while another illegal from Colombia, 29-year-old Kevin Llena, said that “the idea of raids at the hotel…worries me.”

While South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem (R-S.D.) has been nominated to lead Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the bulk of the deportation operation is expected to be led by Trump’s Border Czar Tom Homan, who served as Acting Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the first term. Homan has vowed to crack down on sanctuary cities and states, jurisdictions that explicitly refuse to cooperate with federal authorities and shield illegals, including criminals, from deportation.

“It’s going to be a big raid all across the country,” said Homan in an interview on Friday. “Chicago is just one of many places. We’ve got 24 [ICE] field offices across the country. On Tuesday, ICE is finally going to go out and do their job. We’re going to take the handcuffs off ICE and let them go arrest criminal aliens.”

New York City has turned many hotels, once popular among tourists, into makeshift shelters for illegals due to the originally designated shelters quickly reaching capacity. The total number of illegals at official shelters peaked at 65,000, though city officials have since said that the number has dropped to about 51,000 due to so many fleeing the city.

“The exits did go up after the election and continue to be in line with the after the election exits,” said an anonymous official at New York’s City Hall.
