Right leaning Cato Institute’s report states that many had entered legally and had no criminal records in US or in their home countries.

In fact, some were granted asylum.





A VISA overstay is entering legally. Most deportations per year have always been because of overstay, IDK if that is true this year.

The Cato article says specifically that nearly half the people they were able to get in touch with didn’t seem to enter illegally OR otherwise violate their immigration status

If your claim is that American citizens are being deported - say that. Don’t hide behind a source you would never use with a vague non-cited claim.

If you think this is an issue you should easily be able to find dozens of cases.


Huh? Do you think the possible legal statuses of people in the US is either “here illegally” or “US citizen?”

My claim is quite clear: legal immigrants who have not committed any crime or administrative violations have 1) been deported, 2) without due process, and 3) to a foreign torture camp.

Any ONE of those elements is illegal with regard to legal immigrants, and items 2 and 3 are illegal even with regard solely to illegal immigrants.

Btw this is not including people whose TPS was canceled and were “made illegal” overnight, of which there are hundreds of thousands now.
