As Dem Governors Vow to Resist Deportation Plan, One State Just Offered to Help in a Major Way

President-elect Donald Trump confirmed this week that he plans to declare a national emergency over the nation’s illegal immigration crisis and will use the U.S. military to assist in his deportation operation—one he has vowed will be the largest in American history. While some Democrat governors have said they will resist any effort to remove illegal immigrants from their state’s population, one border state has made a generous offer to the incoming president. 

In a letter to Trump, Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham has offered more than 1,400 acres in the Rio Grande Valley to “allow a facility to be built for the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history.”

The land was purchased from a ranch owner in October to help with construction of more border wall.

"Right now, it's essentially farmland, so it's flat, it's easy to build on,” Buckingham explained to Fox New Digital. “We could very easily put a detention center on there, a holding place as we get these criminals out of our country. 

She also noted its proximity to international airports and a major crossing point over the river.

"I am 100 percent on board with the Trump administration's pledge to get these criminals out of our country, and we are more than happy to offer our resources to facilitate those deportations of these violent criminals,” she said. “What I care about is that we have safe communities, and there is no doubt that we are losing too many of our children to these violent criminals that are coming across the border.”
