‘We resume our peace’

Texas on Tuesday offered more land to the new Trump administration to build deportation facilities — with the project named after a 12-year-old girl allegedly raped and murdered by two illegal immigrants.

Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham, standing along a section of the state’s border wall, said in her office is expanding its previous offer by adding more identified land that could be used by the Trump White House “on day one” to detain violent criminal illegal immigrants before deporting them from the US.

Buckingham said the project has been named the “Jocelyn Initiative” in honor of the life of preteen Jocelyn Nungaray, who was allegedly raped and murdered by two illegal migrants and suspected Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang members who arrived in the U.S. earlier this year were released.

“The new project that the General Land Registry is going to start and that I have created is the Jocelyn initiative, in which we will locate suitable land under my jurisdiction to lease for the construction of violent criminal deportation facilities,” said Buckingham – speaking alongside Jocelyn’s mother Alexis and grandmother Jackie.

“My office has identified a number of our properties and stands ready to make this happen on the first day of the Trump presidency,” the Texas official said.

“We will do everything we can to ensure that no other parent has to feel the pain that Alexis and Jaclyn are feeling right now.”

Jocelyn’s grandmother said the family supports the efforts.

“We are taking back power, we are taking back our peace, and we are taking back hope so that no other family has to go through what our families are going through because this should never have happened,” she said.

“Those monsters should never have been here,” she said of her granddaughter’s killers.

Buckingham recently offered the Trump team a 1,400-acre border ranch to help with the mass deportation.

Buckingham told The Post that she made the additional offer because the Lone Star State “wants to be a good partner” to ensure “that these violent criminals who are hurting our sons and daughters who are here illegally are removed from our territory.”

Trump’s “border czar” pick, Tom Homan, recently told Fox News host Laura Ingraham the Trump administration will “absolutely” use the land Texas has promised.

Homan said the new government will first deport criminal illegal immigrants. He recently told The Post that the effort will work US military for ‘non-enforcement duties’ related to the plan.

“The more non-enforcement work that the Department of Defense can do puts more enforcement officers on the streets looking for the bad guys,” Homan said.

In September, Texas Governor Greg Abbott told The Post His state has already spent as much as $10 billion fighting to secure the border with Mexico during the Biden administration.

During Tuesday’s announcement, Texas GOP Rep. Chip Roy that he would work to get those ongoing costs reimbursed by the FBI.
