The White House said that no one in the Trump administration has changed its tune regarding mass deportations as a report came out that the White House called on House Republicans to change their rhetoric.

“Nobody is changing the Administration’s immigration enforcement agenda,” she said.

“President Trump’s highest priority has always been the deportation of illegal alien criminals who endanger American communities,” White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson told The National News Desk.

“As the Department of Homeland Security has repeatedly said, approximately 70% of deportations to date have been illegal aliens with criminal records.”

It was reported Tuesday by Axios that White House Chief of Staff James Blair told House Republicans to stop rhetoric on mass deportations and focus on deporting violent criminals.

When Trump ran for president in 2024, he ran on the issue of mass deportations.

He ran on an agenda of cracking down on illegal immigration and when he ran in 2016, he supported building a wall on the southern border.

The White House has said that about three million illegal migrants have left the U.S. under the Trump administration, whether that be through self-deportation or forced deportation.

“Thanks to President Trump’s strong immigration enforcement policies, approximately 3 million illegals have left the United States, either through forced deportation or self-deportation, with zero illegals coming through the most secure border in U.S. History for nine straight months,” White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told The National News Desk in a statement.
