While I disagree with the approach of removing immigrants from the country, it raises the question of who allowed them to enter in the first place. Why hasn't President Biden taken more decisive action to provide a pathway to citizenship for them? Ultimately, the current situation can be traced back to decisions made by the Biden administration. It's as if we are experiencing a form of collective amnesia when it comes to addressing these issues. I have never heard President Trump make any statements suggesting that LGBTQ+ individuals should not exist.
Project 2025, which Trump has been following since inauguration day, makes the administration's position on erasing queer people from America very clear.
And he also doesn't have to say anything because his actions are saying plenty:

There's plenty more where that came from and it's been less than a month.
The GOP has been dead set against any pathway to citizenship for Spanish speaking people not from Spain. It’s always easy to blame POTUS but Congress plays a huge role as well.
If there is no clear path for individuals to gain legal status, why allow them to enter in the first place?
Because we require their labor and racists don't want them to be citizens.
