A national emergency could be underway to use military assets in a reversal of the Biden administrations allowance of an open border that has allowed a mass immigration through our southern border with Mexico. United States President-elect Donald Trump has confirmed he is "prepared" to declare a national emergency and use military assets to fulfil his 2024 election campaign promise to carry out mass deportations. Trump made the announcement on Monday in a short post on his Truth Social platform in response to a post by Tom Fitton, president of the conservative group Judicial Watch.
