Evidence shows DHS claims about deportations since January are not accurate

Homeland Security says its agents have deported more than 500,000 undocumented immigrants since January and that the vast majority are criminals. There's evidence this is not accurate.

Because this is a transcript it's difficult to get a quote that encapsulates the essence of the tax. Basically, it notes that the Administration refuses to release info that backs up its claims. After digging through records that got released by some researchers, it's clear that deportations are nowhere near that level.  "We're still looking at fewer than 7,500 removals a week. That's a lot of people. It's a lot of people, but it's nowhere near the number that you would need to have gotten to 500,000."

 

And the same goes for the claiims of self-deportations. One would think that the Administration would be happy to provide proof of their claims if such proof existed.

 

 

Hell, I hope riclag doesn't read this.
