Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, who now vows to secure the southern border of the United States, screamed “down with deportation” at a 2018 rally when she was a senator representing California.
At a Los Angeles parade celebrating the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., at which she served as grand marshal, Harris shouted, “Up, up with education, down, down with deportation!” Harris was accompanied by her husband, Doug Emhoff, and his daughter Ella, as well as actor Jussie Smollett, later infamous for lying about a supposed hate crime focused on him.

POLITICO noted in late August, “Vice President Kamala Harris is running ads touting toughness on the border, with a more muted campaign emphasis on the legalization policies that for decades have been their immigration lodestar.”
Yet in September, speaking at the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, Harris declared that former President Donald Trump and his team “have pledged to carry out the largest deportation, a mass deportation, in American history. … Imagine what that would look like and what that would be? How’s that going to happen? Massive raids? Massive detention camps? What are they talking about?”

“Her remarks come as a new poll by Scripps News/Ipsos found more than half of Americans support mass deportations of immigrants living in the U.S. illegally,” The Daily Mail noted.
Trump told Sharyl Attkisson, “They’re allowing millions and millions of people to come into our country that shouldn’t be here; people from jails, gangs that are all over there, like Caracas, in Venezuela. … prisons are being emptied all over the world. They’re dumping them into the United States. Criminals are being taken off the street in cities and places all over the world, they’re being dumped into the United States. Mental institutions are being emptied out into the United States. They are a threat to democracy. … We’re going to have to do something about it and fast, or we’re not gonna have a country left.”
More than 10 million people have crossed the border under the Biden-Harris administration, with an estimated 1.7 million illegal immigrant gotaways recorded since he was inaugurated in 2021. The figures present a stark contrast from the Trump administration, when there were 415,000 total reported gotaways for 2018, 2019, and 2020.
