Trump's efforts are paying off, and we are slowly returning to some semblance of normalcy where rules matter. The extremist progressives are fearful of a major power loss and the ability to use illegals to vote, which we all know has been happening.
The really big thing is the loss of population based on the census, where illegals were counted, which allocates money and electoral votes to states. So, the removal of illegals will effectively limit the power of California, New York and Minnesota. This will be good for the country, and maybe some common sense will return as well. We need immigrants, but they need to come in the front door. All IMO.

"Immigrants are voluntarily heading home in record numbers, according to federal data, as the Trump administration continues to push major immigration reforms.
A May report from the Vera Institute of Justice examined federal statistics and found that “the number of people in removal proceedings who received a decision of voluntary departure has risen dramatically since the change in presidential administration — particularly among people who were detained.”
It went on to reveal that “increases in voluntary departure decisions are happening alongside increases in orders of removal. The percentage and number of detained cases ending in voluntary departure or an order of removal have increased since the end of the Biden administration.”
Jacquelyn Pavilon, who co-authored the report, spoke with ABC News last week about the recent trend.
“This is widespread across the United States,” she said. “In three-quarters of U.S. states and territories, the number of voluntary departure decisions increased more than fivefold since the end of Biden’s term.”
The numbers have jumped from about 800 per month in late 2024 to 8,800 per month in February of this year.
“Many of those people may have legal avenues to remain in the United States,” Pavilon declared. “Voluntary departure decisions do not mean that you do not have legal rights to remain. People are under harsh conditions and making very difficult decisions.”
She also said the Trump administration has been “leveraging a wide range of strategies to carry out its mass deportation agenda.”
Immigration has been one of Trump’s top agenda items since he first ran for president in 2015, and his efforts seem to be having a major effect."
