Democrats Want to Bring Deported Illegals Back; Trump Might Help
Far-left Democrat Hakeem Jeffries of New York, very likely the next speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, says his party wants to return deported illegal aliens to the United States.
Jeffries revealed the forthcoming treason — which might come to fruition should a Democrat take the White House in 2028 and Democrats keep control of Capitol Hill — during an interview with PBS News Hour.
Democrats have been complaining for months that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is targeting “Dreamers,” the illegal-alien kids packed across the border by irresponsible parents, then given an unlawful amnesty by President Barack Hussein Obama. That amnesty is Deferred Action for Child Arrivals, or DACA.
Then again, the Democrats might get the help they need from President Donald Trump. He told CBS’s 60 Minutes that he’s ready to cut an amnesty deal for millions of illegal aliens. He also said his immigration policy was “too tough.”
Jeffries’ Remarks
Jeffries revealed his plan to further alter the United States demographically with Third World immigrants who vote for Democrats to News Hour’s Amna Nawaz, whose parents are paper American immigrants from Pakistan.
“It’s been reported some dozens of DACA recipients are among those already deported under this administration’s immigration crackdown,” the Pakistani journalist said:
Would you support efforts to bring them back into the U.S.?
Replied Jeffries:
Certainly. Anyone, whether they are a citizen, whether they were here lawfully, whether they are DACA recipients who’s been treated unfairly and unjustly by the administration, we need to provide remedial assistance to them and undo the damage that’s been done to the country, to law-abiding immigrant families and to the American people over this last 20 months or so.
Where Jeffries got the idea that federal authorities are deporting “citizens” isn’t clear.
In June, four far-left Democrats, Joaquin Castro and Sylvia Garcia of Texas, along with Delia Ramirez and Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois, complained that 85 DACA recipients, none with a criminal record, had been deported.
Of the four Democrats, two of them are not Americans. Anchor-baby Ramirez, whose parents were or are illegals, and whose husband is an illegal, is an open subversive who wants to abolish DHS, ICE, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection. She says she is a Guatemalan before she is American. Krishnamoorthi is a paper American from India with one foot still in the Ganges.
DACA Recipients
Maybe, but as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reported in March, “between January 20, 2025, and September 28, 2025, ICE arrested 264 DACA recipients nationwide — and MORE than 92% were illegal aliens charged or CONVICTED of a crime in the U.S.”
So more than 242 of the recipients were criminals.
And as The New American reported seven years ago, 10 percent of DACA recipients had been arrested for myriad crimes. DACA applicants had racked up more than 200,000 arrests.
Of 888,818 who applied for the amnesty, 765,166 received it, and 79,398 had been arrested, some convicted. That’s 10.38 percent.
Just 77,833 applications failed. Of those, 30,132, or 38.71 percent, had been arrested.
Most of those crimes are driving- and immigration-related offenses: 25,305 of those arrested for a driving infraction received DACA; 10,160 didn’t.
Fifteen DACA recipients had been arrested for murder, 62 for rape, and almost 7,000 for drug-related offenses.
Here is what DACA “does not grant,” Law Group International said in April:
- Lawful immigration status
- A direct path to a green card or citizenship
- Permanent protection from deportation
- Protection if your DACA expires
And “even if your DACA is current, there are situations where it may not protect you from removal,” the immigration law firm explained. DACA recipients who commit crimes can be deported, as can those who fail to renew their status or travel out of the country without permission.
“The reality in 2026 is clear: DACA still provides important protections, but it is no longer a guarantee against deportation,” the law firm averred.
The incoming House speaker “wants to re-import DACA recipients that have already been deported and pay them,” podcaster Benny Johnson wrote on X over the Jeffries video:
This is the future under Democrat control.
They will always put foreigners before Americans.
Wrote ErikaCA47:
They will always pick the illegal over the American. They must be given not one inch. They are hellbent on destroying America.
Trump Might Help
Frighteningly, Jeffries might get help from an unusual quarter: The White House.
Speaking to 60 Minutes’ Ross Douthat after the GOP was shellacked on November 3, Trump said he’d gladly ink an amnesty agreement.
Douthat asked whether immigration hurt the president and the GOP on Election Day. Trump said he gets an “A-plus” on border security for ending the Biden invasion at the border and deporting dangerous criminals.
But he added that his immigration policy was “too tough” and hurt him at the ballot box. Trump said he would “work something out” with the Democrats on immigration that is “doable.”
“Get the killers out, get the rapists out, get all the rough ones out,” he told Douthat:
Get the drug dealers out. But let the people that are here and in some cases here for 10 and 15 years, work a deal for them.
In other words, Trump is ready to sign an amnesty. And if he truly thinks his immigration policy was “too tough,” he might help Democrats return illegals deported “unfairly” back to the U.S.
“People voted for no more wars and mass deportations,” Geiger Capital wrote over video of Trump’s surrender on immigration:
Trump gave them a war in Iran and amnesty. Complete and total betrayal.
