President Donald Trump deported a staggering 46,000 illegal aliens in July, a record unparalleled by any other president. That same month, Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested 51,000 immigrants, an astonishing average of 1,645 a day. Indeed, more immigrants were issued deportation orders by a judge in the past 18 months than in the four years of Joe Biden’s presidency combined. In other words, the Trump administration and its Department of Homeland Security, on top of continuing to vacuum seal the southern border, are executing the most successful deportation operation in the nation’s history.

But you wouldn’t know it from all the blackpilling on X. In posts with a few thousand likes each, a handful of B-list blue checks on the social media site decided to brand Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin “a JOKE” (Nick Sortor) and “a deep state RINO loser” (Pino Americano) who wants mass “amnesty” (Mike Cernovich). Naturally, Politico ran to Steve Bannon to claim that Mullin is facing a “MAGA revolt” over boilerplate remarks that, indeed, there is a way for immigrants to come and stay in this country legally.
