Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) has suggested he may terminate certain government officials who attempt to defy President-elect Donald Trump’s imminent mass deportation effort.
Remarking illegal aliens who exploit natural disasters by looting homes “need to be sent back immediately,” DeSantis added some government officials who stand in the way of a mandatory federal deportation order will be removed.
“Now the accountability is significant. If those duties are clear in law, I have the authority with respect to certain officials to suspend them from their office if they are neglecting their duties. And that’s an authority that I have invoked when it’s been appropriate in the past,” the Republican governor told reporters at a press conference Monday.
DeSantis’ comments follow threats from Trump’s border czar nominee, Tom Homan, who warned elected representatives that obstructing deportation efforts would constitute felonies, saying, “If they don’t want to help us, get the hell out of the way, we’re going to do it.”
“They need to review this Title 8, United States Code 1324 (iii) – read about that and don’t cross that line, because it is a felony to harbor and conceal an illegal alien from ICE. Read this statute. Don’t cross that line,” Homan warned.
The governor’s threats to fire oppositional government officials come as the president-elect is set to retake office next Monday, with mass deportation plans slated for Day 1 of his administration.
