(GoRealNewsNow.com) – President Donald Trump’s bold immigration enforcement strategy just took a huge step forward as Buckley Space Force Base in Colorado became a critical staging ground for ICE operations.

This strategic move marks a significant shift in using military assets to combat illegal immigration.

It also showcases the administration’s firm commitment to securing borders and protecting American communities.

U.S. Northern Command began providing facilities for immigration operations at Buckley Space Force Base in Aurora, Colorado, at the Department of Homeland Security’s request.

This decision aligns with President Trump’s increased focus on immigration enforcement and the deportation of criminal aliens.

The repurposing of Buckley Space Force Base showcases the administration’s novel approach to addressing the illegal immigration crisis.

ICE will use the base as a temporary staging and detention site for illegals with criminal records facing deportation.

Doing so will significantly enhance the agency’s capacity to efficiently process and manage these cases.

While federal law generally prohibits military involvement in civilian law enforcement, including processing migrants, the Trump administration has found creative ways to leverage military resources in support of immigration enforcement.

This includes using military planes for deportations and deploying additional troops to the southern border to assist with border security.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth addressed the move by saying that “whatever is needed at the border will be provided.”

The decision to use Buckley Space Force Base comes as part of a larger initiative to increase ICE operations in the Denver area, targeting illegal aliens with criminal records.

This move showcases the administration’s commitment to prioritizing the removal of dangerous individuals who pose a threat to American communities.

President Trump has announced plans for a large-scale deportation campaign to remove over 20 million illegal aliens from the country.

To support these efforts, approximately 1,600 Marines and Army soldiers have been deployed near the Mexican border, joining 2,500 Army reservists already there.

This increased military presence sends a clear message that the United States is serious about defending its borders and enforcing its immigration laws.

A Department of Defense spokesperson stated, “ICE requirements for the facility include a temporary operations center, staging area, and a temporary holding location for the receiving, holding, and processing of illegal aliens.”

As significant ICE operations are anticipated to happen in Aurora, millions of concerned Americans can rest assured that the government is taking decisive action to address the illegal immigration crisis and protect their communities from criminal aliens.
