A revealing, news driven account of the Trump Administration’s mass deportation program, featuring never-before-told stories and behind-the-scenes reporting from NBC News’ Senior Homeland Security Correspondent.
In Undue Process, NBC’s Senior Homeland Security correspondent Julia Ainsley takes us inside the Trump White House to show how Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Tom Homan, and other anti-immigration hardliners are executing the administration’s mass deportation plan, seemingly prioritizing spectacle and punishment over security and legal constraints.
Brimming with revelations from sources within ICE and the Department of Homeland Security, Undue Process is a harrowing chronicle of how the Trump administration aimed to create “the largest deportation force in U.S. history,” only to ignite a resistance within the government and across the country as they redefined the limits of executive power.
What a heartbreaking, difficult, but essential read. It's one thing to see the horrors promulgated by Steven Miller and the Trump administration in snippets in the news literally every day -- but to see it day by day, week by week and month by month the arrogance, the lack of compassion, the racism and bigotry of those people in one book, page by page, is beyond horrifying. Ainsley lays it all out in an unbiased, fact based book. Interspersed with her own reporting, not in an egotiscal way, but to show how fact based this read is, she tells her own story. The few snippets where she talks about her own daughter and compares her own fears that but for her being who and what she is, what she saw happening to innocent children add to the factual information in the book. It is a must read and, if we eventually get to bring justice to the administration, it will be part of a road map to prove their criminality. A must read.
This book should be read by every American. The Trump Administration’s cruel and inhumane immigration policies, run by Stephen Miller, have been documented in this important book.
“On the afternoon of Trump’s one hundred eighteenth day, a draft bill made its way out of the House Budget Committee that could provide a road map of what was to come.
“The One Big Beautiful Bill included a $75 billion infusion into ICE, a $9 billion agency. The funding made ICE the richest law enforcement agency in the country. They could spend with as little efficiency as they wanted. And the ruthlessness with which the Trump administration could pursue its goals in the next 1,361 days would know no bounds.”
This was a tough read but an important one. The public needs to be aware of how truly inhumane and cruel this administration’s immigration policy is. As much as I disagreed with Biden’s approach to immigration, this disgusting and evil approach by Trump and his band of parasites ain’t the answer either.
