Prominent military contractors pitched Donald Trump and the White House on a plan to help deliver his promise of mass deportations.
According to Politico, which obtained a copy of the proposal, former *Blackwater CEO Erik Prince* <www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/11/erik-prince-sunday-morning-futures-us-has-no/> and former COO Bill Mathews pitched Trump on a proposal that would involve private citizens helping to carry out mass deportations of those residing in the country illegally.
The *report* <archive.is/1ENg9#selection-1211.14-1215.262> stated:
A group of prominent military contractors, including former Blackwater CEO Erik Prince, has pitched the Trump White House on a proposal to carry out mass deportations through a network of “processing camps” on military bases, a private fleet of 100 planes, and a “small army” of private citizens empowered to make arrests.
The blueprint — laid out in a 26-page document President Donald Trump’s advisers received before the inauguration — carries an estimated price tag of $25 billion and recommends a range of aggressive tactics to rapidly deport 12 million people before the 2026 midterms, including some that would likely face legal and operational challenges, according to a copy obtained by POLITICO.
…
The emergence of the proposal, marked “unsolicited,” is indicative of the major hurdles the administration faces as it struggles to find the resources to fulfill Trump’s ambitious deportation agenda.
The administration’s desire to make good on that signature campaign promise has created an opening for private contractors who see a rare area in which the Trump administration is likely to increase spending.
The document argues that deporting the illegal immigrant population “would require the government to eject nearly 500,000 illegal aliens per month.”
“To keep pace with the Trump deportations, it would require a 600% increase in activity. It is unlikely that the government could swell its internal ranks to keep pace with this demand,” it continues.
“In order to process this enormous number of deportations, the government should enlist outside assistance.”
When asked about the plan, White House spokesman Kush Desai said the administration “remains aligned on and committed to a whole-of-government approach to securing our borders, mass deporting criminal illegal migrants, and enforcing our immigration laws.”
“While White House officials receive numerous unsolicited proposals from various private sector players, it is ultimately up to the agencies responsible for carrying out the President’s agenda to consider and sign contracts to advance their mission,” he said.
The proposal underscores the logistical challenges facing the Trump administration in their deportation efforts and growing frustration at their current numbers.
Last week, acting ICE Director Caleb Vitello was removed from his position amid reports Trump was unhappy with the current pace of deportations, which *are lower* <www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-set-broaden-arrests-deportation-routes-expand-immigration-crackdown-2025-02-21/> than Joe Biden’s final year in power.
