An amazing strategy. The administration of Donald Trump cut his performances to more than 6,000 Latin American immigrants by officially declaring them “Died”. The objective? Put “The pressure on undocumented immigrants to leave the territory”according to a white house advisor quoted in the Washington Post. Without their social security number, a real identity card in the United States, these people will no longer be able to work, rent housing, collect social assistance or open a bank account.
This formidable measure would have been inspired by the Commission for Government Effectiveness (DOGE), led by Elon Musk. Donald Trump justifies this operation by vast social security fraud: according to him, millions of fictitious centenarians would continue to receive services. “3.5 million people aged 140 to 149” or “1.3 million from 150 to 159”he recently said-despite the multiple denials of the services concerned.
“A very large self-expulsion operation”
The American president has made the fight against illegal immigration a priority, speaking during his campaign “Invasion” of the United States by “Criminals from abroad”. Yesterday, during a Council of Ministers, he acted the beginning of“A very large self-expulsion operation”.
If the republican billionaire does not hide wanting to close his borders, he said on Thursday that his government would let some immigrants work for American farmers, at least temporarily. Of the 2.4 million agricultural employees in the country, 44 % are undocumented, according to a survey by the Ministry of Labor.
