House lawmakers are set to deliver what sources are calling "the start of a reckoning" as Department of Homeland Security agency leaders face their first major congressional oversight hearing since President Trump returned to power.
The leaders of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services will testify Tuesday before the House Homeland Security Committee about the Trump administration's aggressive deportation operations that have sent shockwaves through illegal immigrant communities nationwide.
This hearing comes as Secretary Kristi Noem's DHS has been working around the clock to implement Trump's signature campaign promise of mass deportations - a stark contrast to the Biden regime's catch-and-release policies that turned America into a sanctuary nation for millions of illegal border crossers.
Trump's Deportation Machine in Overdrive
Since taking office just three weeks ago, the Trump-Vance administration has wasted no time dismantling the previous administration's open-border policies. ICE raids have resumed in sanctuary cities, the border wall construction has restarted, and federal agents are finally doing their jobs again instead of serving as glorified taxi drivers for illegal immigrants.
House Republicans are expected to press agency leaders on capacity, resources, and timeline for the largest deportation operation in American history. Meanwhile, Democrats will likely whine about "humanitarian concerns" - the same crowd that had no problem with Biden's policies that led to record fentanyl deaths and human trafficking.
"The American people voted for secure borders and the rule of law. They want to know their government is finally working for them instead of against them," said one House GOP source familiar with the hearing preparations.
This hearing represents a dramatic shift from the Biden years, when DHS officials faced softball questions about their "compassionate" approach to immigration - code words for allowing millions of unvetted migrants to flood American communities.
Patriots across the country will be watching closely to see if these agency heads are truly committed to putting America First, or if they're still infected with the same swamp mentality that turned our immigration system into a joke. The reckoning has begun - and it's about time.
