Fox News reported earlier this month that the Trump administration deported over 100,000 individuals during its first 10 weeks.

However, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem recently pointed out that aliens can avoid a deportation order by leaving on their own. 

Noem: "We will find you and we will deport you"

Noem could be seen offering that advice last week in a social media video which also included appearances by President Donald Trump, Border Czar Tom Homan, and Border Patrol chief Mike Banks.

The video, which features the song "Take Me Home, Country Roads" by John Denver, has a clip of Noem warning illegal migrants that "we will find you and we will deport you."

Another scene depicts Homan telling attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), "Entering this country illegally is a crime and we’re not going to forgive it."

The video then cuts to an interview Banks gave earlier this year to CBS News’s Face the Nation in which he offered a stern warning to illegal border crossers.

"If you cross the border, your chances of being apprehended are much greater, and if you are apprehended, you’re going to be removed from the country," Banks can be heard stating.

The video closes with Border Patrol agents banking on the door of a house and demanding to be let in as the Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) Home app shows up on screen.

This is not the first time that the Trump administration has promoted self-deportation, as a previous video posted in March to the White House's official X account did so too.

Trump says migrants should leave "the easy way" before they get deported

It shows President Trump saying, "People in our country can self-deport the easy way or they can get deported the hard way, and that’s not pleasant."

"The Biden Administration exploited the CBP One app to allow more than one million aliens to illegally enter the United States," he recalls.

Trump then goes on to explain, "Now, my administration is launching the CBP Home app, to give people in our country illegally an easy way to leave now and self-deport voluntarily."

The post in which the video is embedded bears a caption that reads, "Do it the easy way, or get deported the hard way."
