Americans Say “Send Them ALL Home" in Poll Shock

from The Ben Ferguson Podcast · host iHeartPodcasts

1. Harvard–Harris Poll on Immigration A new Harvard–Harris poll shows 57% of Americans want all illegal immigrants deported, a surprisingly high number given the poll’s liberal lean. Support includes: 79% of Republicans 54% of Independents 35% of Democrats (notably high for that party) 2. Public Support for Stronger Immigration Laws 63–64% support laws preventing illegal immigrants from obtaining commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs). Even 40% of Democrats support blocking CDLs for illegal immigrants. 3. Attitudes Toward Enforcement Americans largely want: Greater cooperation between local law enforcement and ICE (honoring ICE detainers). Less reliance on heavy federal raids. Many oppose adding 20,000 new Border Patrol/ICE agents, preferring local agencies to assist instead. 4. DHS Worksite Crackdowns DHS is intensifying checks on businesses hiring undocumented workers. Example: Some D.C. restaurants fired 20–29 illegal workers each after DHS audits. 5. Economic Narrative Challenged Democrats claim deportations would cripple industries and raise prices. Americans want citizens prioritized for: Jobs Housing Healthcare Insurance 6. Rise in Pro-Socialism Views A Fox News poll shows: 38% say a move from capitalism toward socialism would be good — an all-time high. 61% still view socialism negatively, but the shift shows growing acceptance.
