Incoming Trump admin eyes massive expansion of immigration detention: 'He will deliver'
Fox News
The incoming Trump administration will dramatically expand its ability to detain illegal immigrants as it looks to launch a historic mass deportation operation.
Karoline Leavitt, a spokeswoman for the transition team told Fox News Digital: "The American people re-elected President Trump by a resounding margin, giving him a mandate to implement the promises he made on the campaign trail. He will deliver." Adam Shaw is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital, primarily covering immigration and border security.

NBC News reported this week that the Trump administration is considering locations where it can expand immigration detention centers and that the transition team is looking at how many migrants can be held in regions across the country and talking to private prison companies about expansion.
