We are witnessing sleight of hand policy by this administration
Although the #1 topic for voters was the economy, this administration has done a bunch of things with none being a factor on the economy. While 100% of us would agree deporting criminal immigrants is a good/great thing, still does nothing for the every day family.
Biden in 4 years, deported 4 million people. Trump in his first term deported only 1.9 million.

We know using MAGAlogic, the cult will head bob all things Trump does, but those in the middle who held their nose and voted this 🤡 into office again will soon call this 🤡 admin to the carpet.

Rhetorical question? Just Google 'How many people did Biden deport' and link the search results.

I asked for your data points to counter mine and you told me to Google it.
Are you ashamed of your source(s), or what gives?
Also, do you understand how google's algorithm works to feed you results you will like and click on?
And then, I gave you the brookings result, you're complaint against me is that it doesn't show up in your Google? WTF.
Right now his initial removal rate is around that of Barry’s. There is a reason for that though.
Obama wasn’t a piker in deportations, but the current system itself is self limiting in terms of space and manpower.
The only way he can meet his stated goals is to spend a shit ton more money to get the ICE officers and the detention space he will need. That is gonna cost a lot especially if he plans to continue and even expand his tax cuts. Sooo, he either comes nowhere near mass deportations or Congress is gonna bust the budget to give the resources needed to do it. We shall see. I do know that ICE is literally begging for detention space in these parts and we aren’t that far from Moshannon Valley.
