Weren't deportations always. I want to compare the numbers from them to now! Obama and Biden had higher deportations. than Trump or any Republican in office as POTUS. The difference. Is the fear mongering. News attention. And gaslighting. Show me the numbers.

Migrants? You mean illegal aliens! Invaders! Deport them all. If they want to enter the United States they need to do it legally (letter of the law) and lawfully (spirit of the law).

Interesting that white illegal immigrants seem to be immune

Could you explain the legal rights these individuals have before being deported?

Is it routine to use military transport planes instead of less costly options?

What plan does the new administration have to help these businesses find replacement workers to protect Americans from inflation?

Here are some answers to the three questions you posed:

1)Those being deported (or "repatriated") this week likely were apprehended illegally entering the US and made no credible application for asylum, have only very basic rights and are subject to removal from the country. As of November 1,445,549 migrants had "final orders of removal" and were therefore eligible for "rapid deportation."

Those being deported last week likely were among about 5,500 people currently in CBP custody for recent illegal crossings of the U.S.-Mexico border.

2)The military aircraft were just added to the "deportation air force" at the request of President Trump. Previously ICE used a combination of chartered and commercial aircraft for their "removal operations."

3)President Trump recently said that immigration - not inflation - is his "number one priority." I am unaware of him addressing the impact his immigration policies may have on the US workforce.

Again - thank you for reading my articles. If you have any other questions please let me know!
