President Trump has vowed to launch mass deportations targeting “Soros-funded rioters,” focusing on non-citizens involved in violent acts during riots, aligning with a new Republican-led legislative push.

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) is leading a House bill that would empower the federal government to deport non-U.S. citizens—including legal permanent residents, undocumented immigrants, and DACA recipients—convicted of assault, battery, or attempted use of force against law enforcement during national emergencies or disasters.

Naturalnews.com reports: “The thing about breaking the law is, there’s effectively a waiving of your constitutional rights that’s sort of inherent in our system, right? When you go to prison, you’re losing your liberty,” Crenshaw said in an interview with Fox News Digital on Tuesday, June 10. “So this is a very normal thing, and in the case of say, people who are here legally, but then committing acts of violence – in this case, we’re being really specific, during a national emergency, committing assaults against police officers, and destruction of property – that should have an effect and be on the list of things that allows for revocation of your status.”

According to early text of the bill, the measure would take effect in cases where a president, governor or local leader declares an emergency or major disaster to help federal authorities restore order during such periods, particularly when violent protests or riots involve non-citizens.

“What it would do is, it would give the administration the option to say, yeah we’ve rounded all these people up, half of them are U.S. citizens, okay, you’re going to jail for rioting. Maybe another quarter are illegals, well that’s easy you can deport them,” he said. “But what about the other quarter? You know, that might be…a number of legal aliens here rioting against America for enforcing our immigration laws. In our minds, you’ve violated that sort of social contract with the United States at that point.”

The bill has not yet been formally introduced, but if enacted, the legislation would make such individuals permanently ineligible to return to the United States.

Trump deploys National Guard and U.S. Marines in Los Angeles amid escalating riots

This initiative comes as unrest intensifies in Los Angeles, where protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations have erupted into violence. Demonstrators have reportedly set fire to American flags and vehicles, leading police to respond with rubber bullets and pepper spray to break up the crowds. 

As a response to the escalating chaos, President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of 2000 National Guard and authorized the mobilization of 700 U.S. Marines to the area – moves that have drawn sharp criticism from California Gov. Gavin Newsom. A U.S. defense official confirmed the Marines are currently training in Seal Beach in preparation for possible further deployment.

“In light of these incidents and credible threats of continued violence, by the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby call into federal service members and units of the National Guard under 10 U.S.C. 12406 to temporarily protect ICE and other United States government personnel who are performing federal functions, including the enforcement of federal law, and to protect federal property, at locations where protests against these functions are occurring or are likely to occur based on current threat assessments and planned operations,” the memorandum said.
