Summary

The Bahamas has rejected a proposal from Donald Trump’s transition team to accept deported migrants from other nations, a key part of his plan to overhaul U.S. immigration policy.

Prime Minister Philip Davis’s office stated there have been no further discussions since their refusal.

Trump’s deportation strategy, which targets countries like Panama and Grenada, raises concerns about displacing individuals to nations they have no ties to.

This proposal aligns with Trump’s campaign promises of mass deportations and is overseen by Tom Homan, a hardline immigration official from Trump’s previous administration.

    I don’t think any nation wants to have some random people dumped on their doorstep.

    So either they identifi the country of origin and send them back there (still only if that country takes them), or they are stuck with them. They could of course just kill them, but there might be some GOP members who think that is going to far and block this.
