President Donald Trump’s border czar Tom Homan told ABC News the U.S. military will be flying deportees out of the country daily.

During an interview with “This Week” co-anchor Martha Raddatz, Homan said the flights had already started ahead of more arrests.

ABC News reported Homan also had a message for the millions of undocumented migrants in the U.S.: “Leave” the country voluntarily.

“If you’re in the country illegally, you’re on the table,” Homan said during the interview.

The Trump administration has empowered federal agents to detain and deport undocumented migrants without an immigration court hearing.

Homan’s interview will air at 10:30 a.m., Sunday, on ABC News, on “This Week” and before Local 10 News “This Week In South Florida.”
