“Let the deportations begin!”
With those five words, President Donald J. Trump sent a clear and resounding message on Friday: the days of open borders, parole pipelines, and immigration chaos are over. After years of what many Americans saw as a full-scale invasion during the Biden era, the Supreme Court handed down a 7-2 ruling allowing the Trump administration to end the controversial CHNV parole program — and the response was swift.
The Court’s decision stayed a lower court order that had previously blocked Trump from revoking temporary legal status for over 530,000 immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela who entered under President Joe Biden’s “parole pipeline.” These migrants were waved into the U.S. under the guise of humanitarian need, processed through tools like the CBP One app — which critics said turned illegal entry into an app-based concierge service.
Naturally, the president didn’t hold back.
He celebrated the Court’s decision with a post on Truth Social, declaring, “LET THE DEPORTATIONS BEGIN!” — and the Trump War Room echoed the sentiment with a repost on X. Supporters lit up the replies with approval, including a gif of Erin from The Office jumping out of her seat with excitement and posts like “ITS DEPORTING TIME BABY.”
Vice President J.D. Vance, in a debate with Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, explained what was at stake. He told CBS’s Margaret Brennan that Biden’s immigration policy wasn’t just misguided — it was a systemic effort to legalize illegal immigration. “You can go on as an illegal migrant, apply for asylum or parole, and be granted legal status at the wave of a Kamala Harris open-border wand,” Vance said. “That is the facilitation of illegal immigration… by our own leadership.”
It wasn’t just rhetoric. Biden’s CHNV parole program had allowed over half a million individuals from the aforementioned nations to skip the normal, lawful path to entry. No waiting years for a green card. No vetting with a high bar. Just quick processing and near-automatic approval. And once here, they were granted work permits and other benefits — all without congressional approval.
To the Trump administration, and the tens of millions of Americans who voted for him, it was one more example of the federal government undermining its own laws — and putting American citizens last.
“This is what we voted for,” one user posted — and they’re right.
The Biden years saw record-setting border crossings, unchecked human trafficking, and drugs pouring into communities. And while legacy media spun the crisis as “complicated” or “nuanced,” Americans saw it for what it was: a leadership failure. That failure had a name — Kamala Harris, the so-called “border czar,” who vanished faster than Biden’s polling numbers every time the southern border made headlines.
Now, with Trump back in the Oval Office and a Supreme Court ruling in hand, there’s no ambiguity. The message is simple: If you came here illegally under an unlawful program, your time is up.
It’s a new day in America — one where the rule of law means something again. And judging by the cheers online, a whole lot of Americans are ready for it.
Let the deportations begin.
