Inside Trump’s ICE raids on illegal immigrants

Donald Trump’s ICE deportation raids on illegal immigrants have began, with cities from New York to Chicago bracing.
Hundreds of immigrants have already been arrested in ICE raids across the country.
But how many illegal immigrants are currently in the US? How many immigrants can Trump deport? And how much will Trump’s mass deportations cost?
Here, US reporter Sam Clench explains the enormity of Trump’s war on immigration, and the cost of his deportation promise to America.

[@LouisCulture23]

I'm not a fan of america policy but you must respect the laws of a country and entering illegally is a crime.

[@zakeerollite-p2r]

it will be moral damages for thise who work honestly for years....we clearly see that TRUMP WILL MOVE AWAY MOST FOREIGNWERS

[@tell-it-like-it-is8305]

"Illegal" is a synonym for "criminal" because you broke the law.

[@KuenGaTshering-h2u]

Feelings’ mutual but it ain’t synonymous though

[@lorrainelegg-coleman811]

Trump broke the law multiple times. This is nothing new. Deportations have been taking place for years. Biden & Obama deported many more people in each of their terms than Trump did in his last term. Trump just makes a spectacle to make himself look like some kind of legend. What is more important are the people who just lost their homes in the Appalachians and in California.

[@trisix99]

Deportations are technically not criminal. He’s prioritizing illegal aliens with criminal records for a reason… you gotta look up the INA to figure it out. The press secretary wasn’t exactly correct on the issue.

[@tell-it-like-it-is8305]

Cross over into any country without the required legal documents, then tell me you're there legally. There is no country in the world that'll allow that because if you break their law, it's a crime. Common sense.

It is well past time for these people to stop running like cowards from their own land and stand up and demand more from their governments. This is exactly why this country here that they're trying to escape too is what it is and is worth escaping too because our people did exactly that.

If you support illegal immigrants, do this. After they are returned to their home country, personally sponsor and take responsibility for them. Then when they come here legally, personally house and provide for them. If illegal immigrants do not come back legally it is all on Democrats who don't actually support them where it counts.

[@GraceEvans-us7uy]

Yes, those like Selena Gomez, why aren’t you opening your mansions to ‘your people’? I care about well being of all people; but a firm line is drawn when it comes to illegals. Come here illegally, you should fear deportation. I’m sick of the USA being the scapegoat and universal ATM for illegals.
