President Laylin holds press conference on the West portico of the Nationalist House regarding the border shooting investigation, deportation efforts and immigration policy on February 16, 2025.
NEWS 28 - President Jay Laylin gave press an update on the border shooting that resulted in 3 border protection agents being critically injured, and the shooter dead. He also gave an update regarding illegal alien deportations and moves his administration is making or has made to ensure border security.
"The three agents who were shot yesterday were all captains, and their condition is currently listed as critical," said President Laylin. "We are continuing to receive updates from their families and I plan on making a trip to their hospital to meet with their families. As for the investigation the shooters' motive is not clearly known at this time. We suspect that it was in retaliation for the strong immigration policy we have already signed into act here. We will not stop fighting to protect our borders and we are seeking justice for the three agents shot today. According to body camera footage, they fired shots back at the suspect before they were injured. Several other agents began opening fire, with the suspect being struck and, rightfully so, being killed. Our thoughts and prayers are with the three agents currently fighting for their lives. We will stop these incredible men and women in law enforcement from being killed by poor leadership at the state and federal levels."
The president that proceeded to talk about the border crisis and the current numbers of deported individuals that the Jesstopian Border Protection Agency as well as the Customs and Border Enforcement were able to round up and remove from the country.
"As of today, I am pleased to announce, that with the help of the Jesstopian Board Protection Agency and The Customs And Border Enforcement officials, we have officially deported 23,590,129 of the 27 plus million people. That is just after 3 months. We aren't done at this point," continued President Laylin during his speech. "We will continue to deliver the results that we promised the Jesstopian people before election day. They deserve at least that. Secure borders. A safe country. An nonrestrictive government on those who are legal Jesstopian citizens. We will continue to ensure that these folks have the resources, tools and protection to continue to secure our borders."
He issued that he was in talks with several foreign leaders including US President Donald Trump about ways to work too clamp down on illegal immigrants boarding flights to then illegally stay within the country. He said that It would be "a serious task that would require global cooperation."
"We need to work on stopping illegals from taking flights to other countries, to just camp in these countries illegally," proclaimed Laylin. "President Donald Trump and I have had many calls to about this, and he agrees that their needs to be a way for us to stop it. With potential Mexican travel bans from Mexico, we still need to work to ensure they don't fly to a country where they are allowed to fly from, and enter our country in that sense. Their is a lot of work to be done. It is a serious task that would require global cooperation."
The president ended his remarks saying that Jesstopia should always come before any nation, even if that means blocking foreign nationals from entering our country, even for travel. He said that the Federal Government had new leadership that would not be so kind to illegal aliens, something Nationalists have tried to push back on.
