Trump Declares Permanent Immigration Halt from Developing Nations
United States President Donald Trump made a significant policy announcement on Thursday, November 27, 2025, revealing his intention to implement a permanent suspension of immigration from what he categorized as Third World countries. The declaration came through an official post on his social media platform, Truth Social, marking one of his most stringent immigration positions to date.
Hardline Immigration Measures Unveiled
In his detailed social media statement, President Trump asserted that current immigration policy has eroded national progress and development. He explicitly stated his administration would permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries to permit what he described as a full recovery of the American system.
The president further escalated his position by threatening to take comprehensive measures to reverse immigration decisions enacted under his predecessor, President Joe Biden. Trump vowed to remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States, indicating a sweeping review of immigrant statuses.
Benefits Cut and Deportation Threats
Trump's announcement included additional controversial measures targeting noncitizens currently in the United States. He revealed plans to terminate all federal benefits and subsidies for noncitizens and called for the denaturalization of migrants who, in his assessment, undermine domestic tranquility.
The president emphasized his uncompromising stance by declaring his administration would deport foreign nationals classified as public charges, deemed security risks, or considered incompatible with Western civilization. These criteria represent some of the broadest deportation categories proposed in recent US immigration history.
The timing of Trump's announcement followed a tragic incident where a National Guard member died on Thursday after being shot near the White House. Authorities identified the alleged shooter as an Afghan national, though specific details about the suspect's immigration status remain under investigation.
