"Tariff bomb" followed by "blocking the border"...Start a large-scale deportation.

[Anchor]
U.S. President-elect Trump is speeding up his border blockade this time after declaring a tariff bomb.

With Trump signaling a massive deportation of illegal immigrants from his first day in office, a border tsar appointee has taken a step forward.

Tom Homan, a former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement who was named the border tsar for the second Trump administration, visited the Mexican border in southern Texas.

Homan, who shared meals with Border Guard troops and encouraged them for Thanksgiving, said the game had begun and stressed that there would be a major deportation.

Speaking to Fox News ahead of his border visit, he said he would not wait until Inauguration Day and would lock down Texas.

As soon as Trump takes office, he is also speeding up his border blockade, predicting a 25% tariff bomb on Mexico, blaming illegal immigrants and criminal problems.

The target has been extended to Canada as well as Mexico.

The surge in illegal immigrants, including more than 20,000 Indians, has also put pressure on the Canadian government for tariff threats since late last year and September this year, with more than 20,000 illegal immigrants arrested at the northern U.S. border with Canada.

Public opinion in the U.S. is not bad, with 57 percent of respondents in favor of deporting illegal immigrants, according to a CBS poll.

When an illegal Venezuelan immigrant was sentenced to life in prison for killing a Georgia female college student on the 20th, Trump also stressed that it is time to drive out criminals.

Following Trump's declaration of a tariff bomb, all-round border blockades and massive deportations of illegal immigrants are gradually becoming a reality.

Immigrants' anxiety is spreading as Trump even mobilized the military on the day of his inauguration to announce the deportation of illegal immigrants, with a series of asylum and marriage applications in the United States.
