THERE IT IS:

Wow. Pretty exciting.
Except for all those scumbag alt-right maggots on Twitter telling me Trump is going to deport me. Still, I look forward to more border security for the United States.
Trump has told his aides that the wall remains a top priority and he will personally oversee aspects of the project/construction.

Costa had more details on the executive orders he’s expected to sign this week:
I've spoken to several people tonight close to Trump and their read on him/immigration is that his gut is to go the Sessions/Bannon route…

That said, he's also open to notes of political caution or diff't ways of going after policies, hence the ongoing talks on handling DACA.

Trump, they said, made clear decision w/ inaugural to embrace hard-line policies articulated by Sessions et al. Sees orders as a follow thru

I'm told that people/press are underestimating Trump's eagerness to rattle DC even as he works w/ top Rs. Disruption as power.
— Robert Costa (@costareports) January 25, 2017
Still, Trump WH well aware that many on right still want DACA gone and won't be happy w/ the flurry of orders this week, even if Left erupts
— Robert Costa (@costareports) January 25, 2017
He’s right, deporting the “Dreamers” isn’t terribly popular among all Americans, despite his promise to do it so often during the campaign…
UPDATE: Trump confirms!
Big day planned on NATIONAL SECURITY tomorrow. Among many other things, we will build the wall!
