It was my understanding that Obama counted “turnaways” as deportations which would substantially inflate his numbers

Obama included turn arounds at the border as deportations, then compared them to deportations of previous admins and voila he was the deport king. Those actually deported were far less.

The issue is what is claimed as a deportation. Obama would grab somebody on the border and turn them back claiming it was a deportation. Trump shuttered the border so all these numbers are coming from internal CONUS deportations.

Sounds like lots of job openings with rising wages and lowering housing costs.

I believe millions will deport.

20 million just arrived a few years ago. They got a PJ, private job, got a big screen and pickup on credit. Now every friggin day they have to worry about ICE. If they get picked up they lose all the shat they bought. They will just say screw it, pack up and move back.

Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, upsets a Democrat more than when you take away their free/cheap labor.

It’s become pretty clear that the migrant issue is even worse than we realized. LA alone might have 5 million illegals there.


I think the overall figure is around 40 mil nationally. It would be shocking if properly measured

They've been lulling the masses into compliance for decades as they subvert the language used to describe the invasion of millions of invading foreign nationals:

Undocumented immigrant
Unauthorized migrant
Non-citizen
Irregular migrant
Unlawful entrant
Undocumented worker
Illegal immigrant
Migrant without status
Out-of-status individual
Unauthorized resident
Shadow migrant
Non-documented person
Clandestine migrant
Off-the-books worker
Unpermitted resident
Border crosser
Visa overstayer
Unlawful resident
Undocumented newcomer
Irregular immigrant

No matter how you massage the language to make it more palatable, it seeks to normalize the descent of millions of parasites into our nation.

I’m oddly surprised at my miscalculation of the potential illegals inLA. I figured 500k up to 750k but now the numbers seem to be much higher I heard the millions numbers being thrown out but that’s an incredible amount when quantifying it in comparisons.

Do these idiots really assume that we don't have deportation information to compare against previous administrations, especially Democrats that they would suck off?

Trumps deportation numbers are microscopic compared to Obama's.


That's because they news and Democrat pundits and politicians didn't cover it or discuss it publicly when Obama was doing it. It was fine then. It only became "racist," "fascist," and "ICE terrorism" when Trump does it. TDS and the media propaganda perpetuating it has done such an insane degree of damage to this country.

ICE Raids Broke Los Angeles’ Economy. Shouldn’t ICE Pay for That?

Why don't you just put your fricking homeless population to work in exchange for the free food and needles you provide to them?

ICE should flood election voting stations with agents come election day, State & Federal elections. But specifically the mid terms & down the road Presidential election.

Should park an ICE vehicle just outside the door to the polling place all across CA and the border states. Same in the big blue cities like NYC , Chicago, Philadelphia, …

Have yall seen the videos from yesterday of the way theyre doing operations in LA now? Essentially theyre not doing as many target raids on work places or similar stuff, they are just coming in large numbers unannounced right onto the streets of LA and chasing down people who run away when they see them, theyre truly flooding the zone as Homan promised sanctuary cities would get. I will try to find the video and put it in this post as an edit.

Here is a video discussing ICEs recent activity in LA and the meltdowns about it. The footage I am referring to above is time stamped at 8:46 minutes
