    President-elect Donald Trump on Monday confirmed he would declare a
    national emergency to carry out his campaign promise of mass
    deportations of migrants living in the U.S. without legal permission.

    Overnight, Trump responded to a social media post from Judicial Watch’s
    Tom Fitton, who said earlier this month there are reports the incoming administration is preparing such a declaration and to use "military
    assets" to deport the migrants.

    “TRUE!!!” Trump wrote.

    Trump pledged to get started on mass deportations as soon as he enters
    office.

    "On Day 1, I will launch the largest deportation program in American
    history to get the criminals out," he said during a rally at Madison
    Square Garden in the closing days of the presidential race. "I will
    rescue every city and town that has been invaded and conquered, and we
    will put these vicious and bloodthirsty criminals in jail, then kick
    them the hell out of our country as fast as possible."

    There are an estimated 11 million unauthorized migrants living in the
    U.S. without legal immigration status. Removing them could cost billions
    of dollars per year, according to estimates from the American
    Immigration Council.

    Plus, mass deportations could have a broader economic impact by
    resulting in a loss of tax revenue and labor shortages.

    ABC News Chief Global Affairs Correspondent Martha Raddatz recently
    reported from California on the impact Trump’s immigration and mass deportations plans could have on the American agriculture industry.

    "If you took away my workforce, you wouldn't eat. If you go into the San Joaquin Valley and you start doing what you're saying, it's over. The
    country will stop, literally stop because the food system won't move,"
    said Manuel Cunha Jr., the president of the Nisei Farmers League.

    This is good.

    Cheap labour who don't pay taxes & don't get pensions? Doesn't sound ok
    to me. Slave labour for the corporations.
    That is those who don't add to their crime.

    They pay taxes. The pensions are iffier than iffy.

    Why so squeamish now? If you're allowed to toss out the bloodthirsty
    crims, surely it's kosher to rob them first?
