One of the most common refrains you see among left-leaning poliboard and OT lounge posters is that trump’s admin is mainly going after “peaceful”, law abiding illegals.

This data from the NYT suggests that is not the case. It is the 2025 monthly rates for interior removals.

We need to be deporting 10-100x that number to start making a real dent.

ICE is just doing their fricking job

We the people voted for this. If the leftist can just be allowed to block it or greatly impede it with mass chaos and violence then they have in effect stolen the election

Not even close to a dent. We’re so cooked.

So, 60% have no criminal record? I’m all for removing illegals, but your post supports the dem talking point.

On the plus side, we got the message out that it's not a red carpet rollout anymore like under Biden/Harris. Even the ones who are not deported, if you can shut down their financial handouts, that reverses the numbers, too (when they voluntarily leave).

Huh?

2100/(1100+3900+2700+2100)=0.214

No it doesn't. Criminal records vs no record is 2.4 to 1 ratio. Then add in pending criminal charges and this is NOT in the Demonrats favor.

You as an audience support the dem talking point.

Ignorance by the right and the willful ignorance of the left is why the Dems flourish in some places.

I read it as the top portion was the total deported and the bottom section broke it down to criminal records, with 2100 having no record. But the chart isn’t clear. Regardless, if they’re here illegally, they need to go.

Ok. Stop posting their nonsense. We didn't vote for JUST criminal illegals to be kicked out. That is bullshite.

We voted for all 20 million to be shown the door. I don't give a single frick if they are the nicest sweetest illegal on the planet. They broke the law. See you when you come back the right way.

I don't care if they have lived here 20 years as the perfect citizen. You weren't perfect. You had 20 years to try and legalize your immigration status and didn't.

Don't let the media push the bullshite that we are only supposed to toss out criminals. They are higher priority when we can find them but they aren't the only priority.

there is 0 way you can know what this table is claiming as it is posted. To believe otherwise shows your ignorance.

Regardless of its ambiguity, I can clearly gather that:
quote:

60% have no criminal record

Is not true at all.

And credit to your other post saying that they are here illegally and that they need to go.

If 100% of them had no criminal record in the lefts definition, they still committed the crime of coming and/or staying illegally and need to go on git!

In this, we can certainly agree

frick this. I'm not doing the 'confined to felony-committing illegals.' They're all illegal. There here to suck us dry while breeding us out, so they need to GTFO.
