It was always going to be difficult to balance the long-term illegal alien workforce removal against the contrasted aggressive ICE deportation operation.  President Trump’s two statements on the issue today highlight the difficult dynamic.

Just hours before President Trump noted the aggressive deportation operation would continue, he also noted there would be leniency for farm workers and those in the hospitality industry.  Suggesting, “some changes are coming.”

CONTEXT for Los Angeles Riots:  Approximately 12.3 million Mexicans live abroad, both legally and illegally, with 97% of them living and working in the United States, according to BBVA Research.  Last year Mexicans living abroad sent $64.75 billion back home in remittances, largely from Texas and California to states in central and western Mexico.

According to data recently released, in April of this year remittances back to Mexico dropped 12.1%.  The Mexico central bank said April saw 8.1% fewer transactions than a year earlier, that’s down to 12.4 million transactions. For Mexico this is a devastating outcome.

How dependent is the Mexican Govt on these remittances?  Remittances sent home by Mexicans working outside the country surpassed petroleum revenues in 2015. {link} Oil Revenue in 2015 was 23.4 billion; remittances were $24.8 billion.  Last year in 2024 remittances were $64.75 billion…. and in April of this year the remittances dropped by 12.1%.

If you don’t think there is a critical financial motive in this, think again.

CALIFORNIA – About 700 U.S. Marines were mobilized Monday to support the California National Guard to protect federal personnel and property in Los Angeles during protests there, officials said.

The mobilization of the Marines from their base in Twentynine Palms, California, is temporary, to give time for additional National Guard troops to arrive.

Earlier Monday, President Donald Trump said he would support arresting California Gov. Gavin Newsom for purportedly obstructing federal immigration enforcement actions in Los Angeles.

According to Fox News reporter Bill Melugin, three senior DHS sources tell him the Boulder terror suspect is an Egyptian national in the U.S. illegally as a visa overstay who entered the U.S. during the Biden administration. Mohamed Sabry Soliman arrived at LAX on 8/27/22 on a B1/B2 nonimmigrant visa with an authorized stay through 2/26/23, but he overstayed & never left.

On 9/29/22, terror suspect Mohamed Sabry Soliman filed some sort of claim with USCIS, potentially an asylum claim, and on 3/29/23, USCIS under the Biden admin gave him work authorization, which expired on 3/28/25. Soliman remained illegally in the United States before he carried out his attack today in Boulder, Colorado.

According to local and FBI officials, there are at least six victims as Mohamed Sabry Soliman used an improvised flamethrower to attack people in the crowd. The FBI and Local Police held a press conference:

Summary: Six people have been injured after an Egyptian illegal alien started “setting people on fire” at a mall in Boulder in Colorado. The FBI calls it a “suspected act of terrorism” and tells a news conference the suspect – who they have identified as Mohamed Sabry Soliman – shouted “free Palestine” during the attack. A peaceful event in support of Israeli hostages was under way when the attack happened; police say – the group meets regularly for a walk in the area. Officers say the suspect has been taken into custody and six people were injured, with injuries ranging from “very serious” to more minor. Colorado’s attorney general says the attack “appears to be a hate crime.”

Judge James Boasberg issues a three-page order [SEE HERE] demanding the Trump administration deliver cabinet level details about their criminal alien deportation operation.

Boasberg claims the information provided to him so far is “woefully inadequate,” and lacks the citations of what cabinet-level officials were involved in deporting criminal illegal aliens and Tren de Aragua gang members protected by a leftist immigration organization employing Judge Boasberg’s daughter.

Judge Boasberg appears to be focused on generating a contempt order against the Trump administration.  Presumably, this would give Boasberg’s allied Democrats in congress a foothold for their needed 2018 election effort and another impeachment attempt.

It will not come as a surprise to CTH readers to hear the name Judge James Boasberg associated with efforts to protect the institutional interests of a corrupt DC deep state.  Boasberg has a long, very long, and well documented history of protecting the DC apparatus {CTH Archives on Boasberg HERE}.

On Saturday, without giving the Trump administration any time to respond, Judge Boasberg issued an immediate temporary restraining order (TRO) blocking DHS, Customs and Border Patrol and ICE from deporting illegal aliens and narcotrafficking gang members belonging to Tren de Aragua (TdA), a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization.

Boasberg ordered the flights of criminal gang members to turn around and immediately bring the criminals back to the USA to enjoy a life of criminal conduct and terrorism in the USA.  National security is secondary to the rights of criminal aliens to sell drugs, continue child/sexploitation, murder American citizens and rape their targets.

As I wrote in 2021, Judge James Boasberg has long been severely compromised; there simply is no other way to look at his interception of cases to protect the system, and the depth of his corruption is clearly visible in this set of rulings.

WASHINGTON DC – A federal judge has ordered an immediate hold on efforts by President Donald Trump to quickly deport Venezuelan nationals under rarely used wartime powers intended to resist a foreign invasion — and demanded the return of planes already headed to Central America.

According to social media identification, the victim was 29-year-old Amelia Carter who fell asleep in a New York Subway car when an illegal alien from Guatemala took out a lighter and set her clothing on fire.  The victim burned to death as NYPD officers arrived on scene.

The suspect, 33-year-old Sebastin Zapeta, was caught on another subway car today. [SOURCE] The NYPD said the killing happened at the Stillwell Avenue Subway station in Coney Island at about 7:30 a.m. Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch, during a press conference on Sunday evening, provided more insight into the heinous act.

“As the train pulled into the station, the suspect calmly walked up to the victim,” she said, explaining that the female victim was in a seated position. “The suspect used what we believe to be a lighter to ignite the victim’s clothing, which became fully engulfed in a matter of seconds.”

Officers were on patrol at the station when they smelled and saw smoke, prompting them to investigate the situation.

NEW YORK POST – The illegal Guatemalan migrant accused of setting a straphanger on fire and gawking as she burned to death was once deported — but sneaked back into the US and the Big Apple shelter system, sources told The Post.

By now everyone knows why Tom Homan was selected to be the Border Czar, and work on specific functions of border security and illegal alien deportation by President Trump. With a Presidential appointment, Homan carries the power of office of the presidency without having to go through the process of Senate confirmation.

Essentially, Tom Homan is an official assignment inside the Dept of Homeland Security, with regard to the border and illegal alien targeting. This construct allows Homan to begin effectively on Day #1 of the Trump administration.

In this interview with Tucker Carlson, Tom Homan talks about what his official role and responsibility will be; in combination with the details of the duty he intends to carry out with extreme urgency. WATCH:

Incoming Border Czar Tom Homan makes several really good points in this interview on Fox News.   Regarding the number of “criminal illegal aliens” being reported, Homan notes that multiple large areas consider themselves “sanctuary cities” and do not report the immigration status of their jail/prison inmate population.

Homan also notes that if mayors and officials within sanctuary cities do not support the capture of criminal aliens, they will end up creating a system where both criminal and non-criminal aliens are captured and deported.  As the agents look for the criminal aliens, they will not overlook the immigration status of anyone they encounter – regardless of criminal activity.

Tom Homan also notes they will need money for the deportation operation.  This ties in well to the segment with Stephen Miller, where the Deputy Chief of Staff outlined an early immigration bill with border security money upfront.  WATCH:
