There is zero need to use the U.S. military in direct law enforcement actions for deportation. You can easily use the military to transport deportees out of the country. Most military pilots have to fly a certain amount of hours each month to maintain currency. They often fly in circles. Just load up the cargo aircraft and have them fly the training missions to foreign countries with a few ICE agents on board. It kills 2 birds with one stone. Pilots get training/maintain currency in the aircraft and deportees get deported. It really cuts down on cost as it’s going to be in the military budget either way. As to using the military on the border, that’s a slam dunk. Just about every country in the world uses their military on the border and the U.S. has an extensive history of using the National Guard on the southern border. They don’t have to be used in law enforcement. They can totally do logistics and many other support functions that free up ICE agents to focus mainly on law enforcement activities.
