The Trump government started this week with its promised deportations of illegal immigrants, but senior deputy staff chef of the White House Stephen Miller said on Friday that more planes are needed to speed up the process.
Miller told reporters that Immigration and Customs enforcement (ICE) Was impeded in his ability to deport illegal migrants due to a lack of aircraft and the administration tries to protect enough aircraft from half a dozen sources, per Bloomberg.

Custom and border protection sources told Fox News that the plane in the image had 80 people. A third flight, on the way to Mexico, never left after Mexico refused to give permission for the landing, an official from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs told Fox News.
But on Friday Miller suggested that the administration wanted to scale up the activities and was investigating aircraft, including the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Ministry of Defense (DOD) to do this.
“You clearly have DHS Air Activa, you have DOD Air Assets, you have air assets from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, you have commercial air assets, you have charter air activa, so each that can be used to carry out a legal deportation, “Miller said,” said Miller, by Bloomberg.

The administration has taken a number of actions to secure the border, including the use of the army, restarting the wall construction and the termination of conditional programs from the Biden era.
The Ministry of Interior Security has issued a whole series of memos since President Donald Trump’s inauguration, ordering assessments of conditional release and expanding the ability of officials to quickly deport illegal immigrants from the US who have recently arrived.

In the meantime, Miller also said that the administration would use different tools to remove the humanitarian conditional release granted to enter the country if they would otherwise not have permission.
“There are digital footprints, there are financial footprints, there is routine intelligence for law enforcement,” he said. “There is a wide range of tools that we have to identify and remove.”
According to Bloomberg, former President Joe Biden refused to use military planes. His administration often used commercial aircraft deportmigrants.
