Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents last month arrested the most people in at least five years, but deportations are still lagging far behind what Donald Trump has promised — and even behind those in the Obama administration, according to data obtained by NBC News.
The discrepancy between arrests and deportations highlights the challenges the Trump administration faces to make good on Trump’s Inauguration Day vow to deport “millions and millions” of immigrants.
According to ICE data, its agents arrested roughly 30,000 immigrants last month, the most since monthly data was made publicly available in November 2020. But the number of immigrants deported in June — more than 18,000 — amounted to roughly half the number of arrests, according to internal figures obtained by NBC News.
Exactly, and it won’t just be immigrants. The Secretary of Agriculture today said that Medicaid recipients can replace immigrants for picking crops.
That’s the future for Americans - if you want government assistance, you will have to live in a slave labor camp and work for your basic food and shelter. No welfare, SNAP, Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, unemployment, etc. unless you work for it.
