He also won’t have to settle for more “resources” in the form of people processing bogus amnesty applications
Nah. IIRC about 30% weren't claiming asylum, then of what was left about 1/3 didn't make it past the six week hearing, then another 13 didn't make it past the final hearing. So maybe around 20-30 % passed the final hearing.
That last minute Trojan Horse would have cemented into law that we had to accept an average of 5,000 a day over a week or 8,500 in a single day, before allowing expedited deportations.
I don't think so. Per my memory at over 5,000 Trump could shut down the border and not take any crossings -just turn 'em right back. And I think the first period was for six weeks but maybe that was months. Fuzzy there. Now think Mike, if you have that type of framework, you can get different figures and extended times through Congress if you want. No Trojan Horse, see what you get in the next month or two.

The Use of Expedited Removal Over Time
The use of expedited removal to deport people has risen substantially over the past two decades, peaking in FY 2013 when approximately 193,000 persons were deported from the United States through expedited removal, which represented 43 percent of the 438,000 removals from the United States that year. The use of expedited removal fell significantly during fiscal years 2020 to 2023 when “Title 42” (a pandemic-related health policy permitting rapid expulsion of migrants without access to asylum) was in effect. Since Title 42 ended in May 2023, each month over 20,000 migrants have been placed in the expedited removal process.
