Immigrants paid $1k to self-deport could be allowed back ‘if they're good people,' Trump says
Donald Trump's administration is promising $1,000 to undocumented immigrants to voluntarily leave the country, but only 'good people' and 'industrious people that could love our country' will be allowed to return, according to the president. The Department of Homeland Security on Monday announced that 'illegal aliens' who use the CBP Home app to 'self-deport' will receive 'financial and travel' assistance — including $1,000 'paid after their return to their home country has been confirmed through the app.' 'If you are here illegally, self-deportation is the best, safest and most cost-effective way to leave the United States to avoid arrest,' Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement. Trump and administration officials contend that people who use the app to report their own removal will be provided an opportunity to return to the country legally. But under current law, anyone living in the United States for more than six months without permission cannot return as an immigrant for at least three years. Immigrants who were in the country for more than a year could be blocked from reentering for at least 10 years. Immigrants with a record of deportation also are more likely to face lengthy waiting periods, or outright denials, when applying for visas. 'We're gonna pay each one a certain amount of money and get them a beautiful flight back to where they came from, and they have a period of time, and if they make it, we're gonna work with them so that maybe someday, with a little work, they can come back in,' Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Monday. 'If they're good people, if they're the kind of people we want in our company, industrious people that could love our country. And if not they, won't. But it will give them a path to you know coming back into the country,' he added. 'If they miss that limit, they're gonna be taken out of our country, and they never have, and they have never, they will never get a path to come back in, and it'll be a much tougher process. And it's called self-deportation,' he said. The proposal follows stagnant deportation numbers within the first few months of Trump's presidency despite his anti-immigration agenda promising sweeping removals. The administration shut down the Joe Biden-era CBP One app, which granted immigrants a legal pathway to enter the United States, and relaunched the app as CBP Home so users can notify the government their intent to leave the country. At least 5,000 immigrants have reportedly used CBP Home to announce they were voluntarily leaving the country, according to the Migration Policy Institute, an immigration think tank. The Trump administration is now battling in courtrooms across the country to summarily remove dozens of alleged Tren de Aragua gang members, labelled 'alien enemies' who can be summarily deported from the country under his invocation of the Alien Enemies Act, a centuries-old wartime law most recently used to detain Japanese Americans during the Second World War. The law grants authority to the president to remove targeted immigrants during a declared war or if there is an 'invasion' or 'predatory incursion.' Last week, a Trump-appointed federal judge in Texas delivered yet another blow to the president's so-called 'mass deportation operation' with a ruling that found the government does 'not possess the lawful authority' to summarily deport alleged Venezuelan gang members under his use of the Alien Enemies Act. Federal judges across the ideological spectrum have also rebuked the administration for failing to retrieve a Salvadoran father living in Maryland who the administration admitted was wrongly deported to a notorious jail in his home country by 'error' despite a court order preventing that from happening. A unanimous Supreme Court agreed that the government must 'facilitate' Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return, and that 'the United States acknowledges that Abrego Garcia was subject to a withholding order forbidding his removal to El Salvador, and that the removal to El Salvador was therefore illegal.' The president and his allies have raged at court decisions blocking his agenda, accusing judges of obstructing what he calls a 'mandate' from voters to remove millions of undocumented immigrants. Trump and his allies have accused judges of demanding 'trials' for targeted immigrants, despite the fact that immigration courts do not have juries or witnesses and serve under the Department of Justice and at the direction of the attorney general. 'It's a very difficult thing with the courts. The courts have all of a sudden out of nowhere have said maybe you have to have trials. We're gonna have 5 million trials? Doesn't work. Doesn't work,' he said Monday. 'You wouldn't have a country left. But hopefully the Supreme Court will save it.'

Sir Richard Branson: Vast majority of Americans don't back Trump
Sir Richard Branson has said he does not believe that most Americans support Donald Trump's actions since returning to the White House. The Virgin Group founder said the consequences of the US president's interventions in areas such as global trade, the war in Ukraine and climate change were 'awful for everyone' – US citizens included. He said: 'I honestly think this is a fairly small elite of people around Trump. I don't think he is carrying the vast majority of Americans in what he is doing. 'Most American people are decent individuals. I'm just sad, incredibly sad. And many, many, many Americans I know are just very sad.' Sir Richard said Mr Trump risked turning the US into a pariah state if he persists with his tariff policies, isolated in the world and frozen out of global trading relationships. He said: 'You can see a world where Europe, Australia, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, China, all trade together and build a powerhouse in years to come. 'There is a big market out there, which you could find America gets excluded from – a lot of imports and exports.' He said that would 'definitely have happened' had Mr Trump not rowed back from the immediate imposition of crippling tariffs across the board. The entrepreneur, who spoke during a visit to Saudi Arabia to mark the start of Virgin Atlantic flights to Riyadh, said Mr Trump's 'erratic and unpredictable' policies were 'very difficult for business to deal with,' especially when many sectors had been geared up for growth. He said: 'It's just such a pity because everything was going so bloody well up to about three months ago. 'If you take Virgin – our cruise ships were booming, our airlines were booming, our health clubs were full. They are still OK, but you just sort of feel, urgh! If he continues he's in such danger of doing so much damage in the world.' Sir Richard predicted that Mr Trump would come under pressure at home as his tariffs start to push up prices for imported goods, and predicted that Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve chief, will resist pressure to cut interest rates. He said: 'Inflation hasn't started kicking in in America. It will do once these tariffs start kicking in. Powell, if he reduces interest rates, inflation will get even worse, so it's unlikely that he is going to do what Trump wishes there.' Sir Richard said that while the tariffs 'have obviously done a lot of harm', Virgin Group businesses will ultimately 'muddle through'. He added that he was ultimately more concerned about Mr Trump's withdrawal of support for Ukraine and Volodymyr Zelensky than his tariff policy. He said: 'Ukraine is the thing that I think should worry the world the most. America and Britain had pledged to protect the integrity of Ukraine and now America also seems to have jumped sides. 'Is he going to abide by the treaty America signed in 1994 and continue to support Ukraine? If not, the whole of Europe has got to get onto a war footing and ramp up weapons supplies like we haven't done since the Second World War.' Sir Richard said he has spoken with his friend and fellow space pioneer Elon Musk on a few occasions since Trump came to power, with conversations focused mostly on Ukraine. He declined to comment on Mr Musk's role in the Trump administration. Shai Weiss, the chief executive of Virgin Atlantic, said demand for US flights to the UK had recently been weak, in a sign that Americans are putting off spending amid economic uncertainty. However, he said that other consequences of Mr Trump's trade war, particularly the weak dollar, were spurring bookings from Britons eager to visit the US to take advantage of their increased purchasing power. He said: 'The flip side is that the UK can be a beneficiary of this. The pound is stronger, and we are transitioning to a period where bookings are coming more from the UK than the US.' Britons are showing no sign of avoiding the US because of Trump's policies, Mr Weiss said.'We haven't seen the dramatic shift like we have for Canada to the US, and we don't expect to see it. 'There have been no statements that Britain should be the 52nd state. People are still going to fly on leisure to Disney.' Broaden your horizons with award-winning British journalism.
