The Trump administration is intensifying its immigration enforcement by introducing steep fines of $998 per day for migrants who fail to leave the U.S. after receiving deportation orders.
These penalties could be applied retroactively for up to five years, potentially resulting in fines exceeding $1 million. In a related move, the Department of Homeland Security has revoked the legal status of migrants who entered the U.S. using the Biden-era CBP One app, ordering them to leave immediately. Additionally, New York City is suing the federal government over a decision to revoke $188 million in migrant shelter funding.
These actions reflect a broader effort by the Trump administration to reverse Biden-era immigration policies and tighten border control.

This is exactly what happens when you let the government grow too big—it starts using its power to punish people instead of protecting liberty. Immigration policy should focus on individual rights and due process, not million-dollar fines and bureaucratic crackdowns.
Glad to see the administration finally getting serious about enforcing our immigration laws—it's about time we put America first and stopped rewarding illegal behavior.
They shouldn’t be deported or detained for being a migrants
Honestly, it’s about time someone took real action to secure our borders. For too long, illegal immigrants have been taking advantage of our broken system, and Trump’s just doing what Biden refused to do—enforce the law. If you get a deportation order and don’t leave, there should be consequences. Why should hardworking American taxpayers foot the bill while cities like New York cry about losing millions for shelters that shouldn’t even be needed? That money could go to veterans, schools, or crumbling infrastructure. The CBP One app was just another backdoor path for people to skip the line, and it’s right to shut it down. This country needs order, not open borders and handouts for lawbreakers.
