"As the case of Seamus Culleton shows, the diaspora is losing the security it once took for granted. Donald Trump promised his followers a purge unlike any seen before. During his presidential campaign in 2024, he pledged he would oversee the removal, by force, of more than one million illegal migrants from US soil in his first year. So how is the much-vaunted demographic blood-let going?"

Seamus Culleton's case indicates diaspora members are experiencing a loss of security once taken for granted. Donald Trump promised followers a purge unlike any seen before. During his 2024 presidential campaign he pledged to oversee the removal, by force, of more than one million undocumented migrants from US soil in his first year. The pledge signals an intention to carry out mass deportations through coercive means. The prospect of large-scale, forceful removals has direct consequences for immigrant communities and diaspora networks, increasing uncertainty about residency, safety, and belonging.
