    How many ICE deportations were there under president Biden?

    Less than now.

    we’re there any deaths in ICE custody under Biden?

    Less than now.

      Deaths, yes. Not by much though. There were more ICE deportations though. That tells me you didn’t actually look into it.

          Wait until I tell you that AOC also voted to increase police funding, that Obama was the Deporter in Chief, had a War on Whistleblowers, killed a family member of a terrorist (son), and increased drone strikes like a 1000%.

            You’re telling me that ICE received a massive funding boost and a ton of new brownshirts but deportations went down?

            Maybe answer this first before you throw more shit around.

              Maybe. Biden and Obama deported everyone who needed deporting in an attempt to please the Republican voter.

              There weren’t many problems left to validly deport.

              It’s why they started raiding workplaces and schools. Any actual problems were already solved.

              You’re right, they did receive a massive funding boost. I don’t think that’s the police funding increase I was talking about regarding AOC though. I don’t know how many brownshirts were in ICE under Biden & Trump though, so I can’t speculate. But yes, deportations did go down, and it wasn’t just cause they included the numbers that were turning away at the border though, but actually taken from American soil, and deported elsewhere.

        No one yet has complete and reliable data for the number of ICE and other deportations in 2025. But there has been an analysis of ICE flight data that showed a 62% increase in the number of deportations-related flights in 2025 compared to 2024, as of September:

        The ICE arrest data also shows a steep rise in 2025:

        Since you are confident of your analysis showing the opposite, please provide your sources and numbers instead of telling people to do their own research.

          I did provide the source, literally the one used by your sources. Which even show that there were way less in ‘24 compared to previous years, then shot up again. This is done by both R and D on many instances BTW to look better in comparison. So when you see a comparison between a president’s first year, to previous’ last, look at other years.

            The source you linked to (https://www.ice.gov/statistics) only has data up to December 2024, when Biden was still President. The sources I linked to had data from 2025. The small numbers for 2025 in your link are for Fiscal Year 2025, ending in December 2024, so despite the name FY2025, that’s really just the last 3 months of 2024.

            So those statistics contain no information about what ICE has been doing since January 2025 when Trump returned.

              When looking at one of the charts you provided, would it be fair to assume that it was like 300 deportations per day in 2024? That would be like twice as many ICE deportations as what I’m seeing in the ICE website.
