CONFIRMED: Trump Will Sign EOs Today Sending Military to the Border and Ending Birthright Citizenship

According to incoming White House officials, President-elect Donald Trump will be signing ten Executive Orders (EOs) Monday that will, among other things, declare a national emergency at the southern border, send the military there to repel foreign invasions, and end birthright citizenship.

Trump and his national security team have been teasing that Inauguration Day would see a slate of immigration and border-related EOs being signed by the new president in order to protect Americans from the onslaught of illegals crossing into the country and undo the disastrous policies enacted by the Biden administration. 

Some of the finer details are yet to be worked out, but Trump officials confirmed EOs would be signed that would:

  • Declare a national emergency at the southern border;
  • Send U.S. military personnel to the border to protect the United States from all forms of foreign invasion;
  • End “catch and release” policies of the Biden administration and restart the building of the border wall;
  • Designate drug cartels as global terrorists; and,
  • Suspend asylum programs and end birthright citizenship

All of these orders will apply only to the southern border, with future action to be taken to address issues to the north.

Fox News’s Bill Melugin, as always, has more details. One point: Melugin says there will be eleven border EOs today, but Trump officials confirmed Monday morning that there will be ten.

We’ve obtained exclusive details on three of the executive orders. 

Order #1: Trump will direct DHS & DOD to finish construction of the border wall & deploy personnel to take operational control of the border. He will order the immediate termination of Biden’s controversial mass humanitarian parole policies & programs, including the CBP One cell phone app, and the CHNV migrant flights program, and he will order catch & release policies to be ended. Trump will also direct DHS and the AG to reinstate the “Remain in Mexico” program. 

Order #2: Trump will order US troops to be deployed to the border under U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM), & will order the U.S. military to prioritize US borders and territorial integrity in strategic planning for its operations. Trump will direct his SecDef to develop a unified command plan, and the border security mission will be handled by NORTHCOM. 

A Trump admin official tells me: “This Executive Order sends a clear message that the United States intends to exercise it’s sovereignty over its land and borders and that the Armed Forces have a role to play in protecting our borders.” 

Order #3: Trump will designate international cartels and crime organizations like Tren de Aragua and MS-13 as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) and Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs). The order will declare these groups a national security threat and will invoke the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to stop their operations.

With these designations, the federal gov will have more tools to go after them. A FTO designation allows for targeted action against members, including sanctions and financial penalties. It is illegal for anyone to provide support or resources to a FTO, and financial institutions most report those funds to the Treasury. 

These are just 3 of 11 border related Executive Orders President Trump will sign today. I’m told he will announce some during his inaugural speech, and others throughout the day, including at the White House.
