A team of Donald Trump allies has formed a lobbying group to try to convince the administration to carry on with its hardline mass deportation policies.
The MAGA loyalists formed the “Mass Deportation Coalition” after becoming irate at suggestions that the White House is trying to get Republicans to tone down their messaging around Trump’s top 2024 pledge to carry out the “largest mass deportation program” in U.S. history, Politico reported. Instead, GOP lawmakers are being urged to say the focus is just on hardened criminals.
White House deputy chief of staff James Blair reiterated that guidance earlier this week, reportedly telling House Republicans to soften their messaging about removing undocumented migrants from the country. The backtracking comes after Trump and ICE’s hardline tactics received intense condemnation following the killing of two U.S. citizens by federal immigration agents in Minneapolis.
