The administration has already ramped up deportations, using military flights to send migrants to Latin American countries

In order to deport non-Salvadoran migrants and make it unlawful for them to apply for asylum in the United States, the Trump administration is negotiating a "Safe Third Country" deal with El Salvador.

The Trump administration began sending deportees on US military planes back to Guatemala and El Salvador, according to people familiar with the matter, as it looks to demonstrate that it’s acting on campaign promises to return millions of migrants to their home countries.
