Mass migrant deportations coming to NYC soon as Trump’s border crackdown gets underway, NY rep warns
Mass deportations are coming to New York City as soon as President Donald Trump’s long-promised crackdown on illegal migrants gets underway, Rep. Nicole Malliotakis has warned.
The Republican, who reps Staten Island and Brooklyn, told NY1 that the Big Apple is among the first sanctuary cities the feds will target amid Trump’s push to boot illegal migrants from the country.
“I met with [Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director] Tom Homan a couple weeks ago,” Malliotakis said in an interview right after Trump’s inauguration on Monday.

“Chicago is first, but New York will be right after that. So, I don’t know exactly how many days it will take.
“It’s focused on criminals. They are focusing on the cartels, the gang members, the sex traffickers, on the drug traffickers,” she added. “They want these dangerous people in this country removed. And so do my constituents.”
Deportation raids had reportedly been slated to kick off in Chicago as early as Tuesday — but they were put on hold at the last minute in a bid to restore an element of surprise, several law enforcement sources told The Post.
