President proclaims doubling of ICE troops with add'l 20k forces in the next 60 days [View all]

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/05/establishing-project-homecoming/

Section 3.b: (b) No later than 60 days after the date of this proclamation, the Secretary of Homeland Security shall supplement existing enforcement and removal operations by deputizing and contracting with State and local law enforcement officers, former Federal officers, officers and personnel within other Federal agencies, and other individuals to increase the enforcement and removal operations force of the Department of Homeland Security by no less than 20,000 officers in order to conduct an intensive campaign to remove illegal aliens who have failed to depart voluntarily.


Remember in Blazing Saddles when they held open enrollment for the worst of humanity?

Taggart!

Yes, sir?

I’ve decided to launch an attack that will reduce Rock Ridge to ashes.

What do you want me to do?

Round up…

…every vicious criminal and gunslinger in the West. Take this down.

I want rustlers, cutthroats, murderers, bounty hunters…

…desperadoes, mugs, pugs, thugs,

nitwits, halfwits, dimwits…

…vipers, snipers, con men, Indian agents, Mexican bandits…

…muggers, buggerers, bushwhackers, hornswogglers…

…horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, bank robbers, asskickers…

…shitkickers and Methodists!


"Qualifications?"

"Rape, murder, arson, and rape."

"You said rape twice?"

"I like rape."

"Sign right here."
