Trump Pledges Mass Deportations and TikTok Support in First Post-Election Rally
President-elect Donald Trump made his first major public appearance since winning the 2024 election at a conservative conference in Phoenix.According to the New York Post, Trump declared his intention to launch "the largest deportation operation in American history" immediately upon taking office on January 20, 2025, while also suggesting a potential reversal of TikTok's ban.
Trump outlined his plans at the Turning Point Action's AmericaFest conference, emphasizing immediate executive actions to address border security and illegal immigration. He appointed Tom Homan as his border czar designee to oversee the massive deportation initiative, which he claims will surpass the scale of operations conducted during President Dwight D. Eisenhower's administration.
The president-elect's stance on TikTok has notably shifted since his previous administration. After meeting with TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew at Mar-a-Lago, Trump expressed interest in preserving the platform's presence in the United States.

The primary reason for the potential TikTok ban in the U.S. is national security concerns, as lawmakers fear that the Chinese government could access data about American users through its parent company, ByteDance. This has led to legislation requiring ByteDance to sell TikTok to a non-Chinese company or face a ban by January 2025.
