> Over the past year, President Trump’s administration has deported about 230,000 people who were arrested inside the country and another 270,000 at the border, a New York Times analysis of federal data shows> the number of people trying to cross the Southwest border has fallen to record lows. As a result, far fewer people were arrested and deported from the border than in the preceding few years> Another roughly 40,000 people returned to their countries after signing up to “self-deport” and receive a stipend through a novel program and app provided by the administration.> That brings the total number of deportations since Mr. Trump took office to 540,000 — fewer than in the last two years of the Biden administration, when border crossings were at record highs. There were 590,000 total deportations in 2023 and 650,000 in 2024.
> Homeland Security officials said in December that more than 622,000 people had been deported under Mr. Trump. They did not respond to requests for a more detailed breakdown of that figure, and the department’s statistics division has not published any of its once-routine detailed reports since Mr. Trump took office. It most likely includes all repatriations carried out by various homeland security subagencies
> In the past, ICE made most of its arrests in partnership with local jails and prisons, quietly taking into custody immigrants who had already been arrested by another law enforcement agency.
> Arrests at jails and prisons went up over the past year, but the increase was far exceeded by the growth in what ICE calls “at-large” arrests, the apprehensions of immigrants on the streets, in courthouses, and at homes and businesses. These quadrupled to about 150,000 and made up a majority of immigration arrests in 32 states and Washington, D.C.>They were most common in states like California, Illinois and New York, where local governments have passed laws blocking local jails and prisons from transferring people to ICE custody.
>>526330680All in all, there is a lot of good work being done to cleanse the land. Of course, if they were remotely serious they’d go after employers, but these are serviceable first steps. It does look like they are flushing the demographic toilet in noncompliant blue states ahead of the midterms. Probably too little too late for 2026 elections, but it’s nice to see the good guys taking the offensive.
>>526330300>the number of deportations is already higher than the 4 years of biden combinedthis is just the beginning. ICE is still staffing up. all of this leftist terrorist law fare takes time to work through the courts. trump can insurrection act any time. that is highly disruptive so it is better to use the threat to force compliance, but compliance will happen, one way or another.
bump for infographics
If this deportation wave continued another 10 years, and we got birthrates in the right direction, maybe we could turn the ship around
>>526331240> this is just the beginningInshallahThe showdown with left wing governors and law enforcement must be won, both in the court of public opinion and courts of law. I hope the Trump team has prepared adequately for that fight. The reaction to George Foid has gone relatively well for the administration. It had the potential to kill this operation in the crib and that hasn’t yet happened.
