trump/vance Immigration Enforcement Bloodbath

Elian!

Was plucked from an inner tube off the Florida coast
His mother died at sea

Prior to 1995, all Cuban nationals rescued at sea were brought into the United States but that changed under Bill Clinton‘s watch as after 1995, they were sent directly back to Cuba.

Elian Gonzalez was brought into Florida because he needed “immediate medical care” and later became a political pawn in a tug of war

ICE Finally Admits Truth About Dramatic Spike in Assaults of Agents

It’s also worth noting that the increase comes at a time when, under Trump, the number of ICE encounters taking place has increased staggeringly—a fact that criminal justice journalist Jessica Pishko said makes the figures “uniquely unimpressive.”

And the increasingly common encounters have been accompanied by increasingly aggressive policing tactics.

According to USA Today, law enforcement experts say that, by employing “practices that many American police departments have largely disavowed,” immigration enforcement agents “are exacerbating tense situations” and “provoking unnecessarily dangerous encounters.” Regarding these tactics, retired law enforcement veteran Diane Goldstein told USA Today that immigration enforcement officers’ “direction and their leadership is directly putting them in a horrific situation.”

The practice of wearing masks and making arrests that are virtually indistinguishable from kidnappings also increases the likelihood of confusion and bystander intervention, according to former ICE acting Director John Sandweg.

Further, reckoning rationally with ICE’s data would require scrutinizing what constitutes an assault in ICE’s eyes, as the agency has done itself no favors by making dubious assault accusations. Take, for example, those it made against New York City Comptroller Brad Lander, who was arrested “for assaulting law enforcement” earlier this month—a claim that The Washington Post’s Phillip Bump likened to a bully accusing his victim “of having gotten in the way of his fist."

Poll: Trump’s approval rating falls to new low amid mass deportation raids

Immigration has long been an area of relative strength for Trump. Before last November’s election, 48% of Americans predicted he would do a better job on the issue than former Vice President Kamala Harris, his Democratic rival; just 36% thought Harris would do better. And even in March, after a couple of months in office, more Americans approved (48%) than disapproved (44%) of how Trump was actually handling immigration as president — in contrast to nearly every other issue.

But that’s no longer the case. Throughout 2025, Trump’s disapproval rating on immigration has steadily risen — to 46% in April, then 48% in May — before jumping to 52% in June, amid the recent ICE raids. At the same time, the president’s approval rating on immigration has fallen to 44%.

In other words, what was a net positive issue for him (+4 points in March) is now a net negative (-8).

Immigration isn’t the only area where Trump has lost ground over the last month. Disapproval of how he’s handling the cost of living (up from 59% to 63%) and trade and tariffs (from 57% to 60%) has also shot up.

But the new Yahoo/YouGov poll suggests that ICE’s ongoing crackdown may be having a bigger effect on the public.
...
Far more Americans now say they disapprove (50%) than approve (36%) of the "large-scale deportation raids in Los Angeles and other cities," for instance. Among Latino Americans (who voted for Trump last November in record numbers) that gap is bigger: 62% disapprove to 19% approve. Even independents (who tend to swing elections one way or the other) disapprove (57%) rather than approve (32%) of Trump’s ICE raids by a wide margin.

Overall, a majority of Americans (51%) now think Trump has gone too far in "arresting and deporting immigrants" — a number that’s ticked up 4 points since April. Fewer say his approach has been about right (26%) or that he hasn’t gone far enough (15%). A full 55% of independents think Trump has gone too far.
...
As for the protests against recent ICE raids by people in Los Angeles and elsewhere, more Americans approve (47%) than disapprove (40%). But that gap is smaller than the one between those who disapprove (again, 50%) and approve (36%) of the raids themselves, suggesting at least some Americans think the protests went too far. In line with that theory, a majority say the protests were either “mostly violent” (26%) or “about equally peaceful and violent” (28%) rather than “mostly peaceful” (37%).

Either way, Trump’s response to the protests — sending “nearly 5,000 armed troops to the city against the objections of state and local officials" — is just as unpopular as the raids themselves, with 50% of Americans saying they disapprove and just 38% saying they approve.

Is the tide turning?

No.
Could tell the article was written by libs because it refers to illegal aliens as “otherwise law abiding immigrants“ and twice as “undocumented“ (is no such thing).

Right off the bat could tell the poll was biased

Overall, a majority of Americans (51%) now think Trump has gone too far in "arresting and deporting immigrants"

That right there tells me the poll is garbage because Trump isn‘t arresting and deporting ‘immigrants‘. He‘s arresting and deporting illegal aliens. If the question isn‘t going to state ‘illegal aliens’ or ‘illegal immigrants‘ at least state ‘people living in the US illegally‘. If it’s going going to lump people who came here legally with those who came here illegally by just by stating ‘immigrants’ as far as who’s being deported, then it’s beyond bias. It’s pure garbage.

Most of those people who disapproved probably voted for Kamala, didn’t vote, or won‘t vote in the way lower turnout midterms. They use the term ‘undocumented‘ and don‘t differentiate people who come here legally with people who come here illegally by calling them all ‘immigrants.‘ Those people are never going to vote conk.

Trump campaigned on doing mass deportations.
Multiple polls before the election showed a majority of likely voters favored mass deportations.
And Trump isn’t even doing mass deportations. 1-2k people a day, or even the 3k they want to do, isn‘t mass deportations. It would take closer to 10k a day to remove what Biden let in. That be would be mass deportations.

Trump‘s popularity among his base is better than that of any conk POTUS in recorded history.

WRONG - it can be argued that someone who came to the US illegally but then applied for asylum while not legal is also no longer illegal. They're in a no-mans land of pending or in-between. And individuals with revoked Temporary Protected Status are not automatically considered illegal immigrants either.

You're hoping against hope that trump and ICE Barbie going after illegal immigrants that aren't the "worst of the worst" won't hurt MAQA yahoo politicians with moderate/independent voters and you're going to deny and attack any reports that it might be.

U.S. citizen seeks $1M after arrest, detention for recording immigration raid at Home Depot

The Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund is demanding the federal government pay $1 million in damages to a U.S. citizen who was arrested and detained while he was recording an immigration raid at a Home Depot in Los Angeles last month.

MALDEF put the government on notice of a coming civil lawsuit for what it says were assault, battery, false arrest and false imprisonment against Job Garcia, 37.

Garcia, a Ph.D. student and photographer, was tackled and thrown to the ground by agents in the Home Depot parking lot in Hollywood, arrested and held for more than 24 hours, MALDEF said.
...
"Border Patrol and ICE punished me for informing others of their rights and exercising my own rights," Garcia said in the MALDEF statement.
...
“Here, a citizen, acting in the best traditions of our democracy, was engaged in documenting government misconduct to encourage policy change; he was wrongfully arrested and detained because of his race and his heroic efforts,” Saenz said.

20 states sue after the Trump administration releases private Medicaid data to deportation officials

The unusual data sharing of private health information, including addresses, names, social security numbers, immigration status, and claims data for enrollees in those states, was released to deportation officials as they accelerated enforcement efforts across the country. The data could be used to help the Department of Homeland Security locate migrants in its mass deportation campaign, experts said.

Bonta said the Trump administration's data release violates federal health privacy protection laws, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

It's a fishing expedition that ICE Barbie will likely argue was for national security purposes.

Stateless Palestinian woman detained after honeymoon released from Ice jail

Sakeik, 22, was detained in February on her way home from her honeymoon in the US Virgin Islands. Prior to her arrest, she had been complying with requirements to check in with Immigration and Customs Enforcement since she was nine.

After she was detained, the US government tried – twice – to deport her. The first time, she was told she was being taken to the Israel border – just as Israel launched airstrikes on Iran. The second time, Sakeik was told once again she would be deported – despite a judge’s order barring her removal from her home state of Texas.

Sakeik’s family is from Gaza, but she was born in Saudi Arabia, which does not grant birthright citizenship to the children of foreigners. She and her family came to the US on a tourist visa when Sakeik was eight and applied for asylum – but were denied. The family was allowed to remain in Texas as long as they complied with requirements to check in with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

In the years that passed, Sakeik graduated high school and college at the University of Texas, Arlington, started a wedding photography business, and married her husband, 28-year-old Taahir Shaikh. She had begun the process of obtaining a green card.

Following the process and requirements set forth by ICE. While not yet legal, also not an illegal immigrant.

They're less trustworthy than a poll or news article that calls illegal aliens immigrants.

Should I trust a news article put out by the leftist pro open borders The Guardian? They're even less trustworthy than a poll or news article that calls illegal aliens immigrants.

So her family came to the US in 2011 under false pretenses, applied for asylum, was denied, but the Obama admin said you can stay anyway, which is effectively ignoring the asylum judge & granting de facto asylum. Sounds like something a donk admin would do.

-According to Guardian article family came to US on a tourist visa when she was 8
-Basic math that would be <2011> during Obama.
-If the family came on a tourist visa but then applying for asylum when they arrived, that would be obtaining the tourist visa under false pretenses.
-Asylum hearing judge during Obama denied the asylum petition.
-Obama CIS/ICE let the family stay anyway, so that would be ignoring the asylum hearing judge & granting de facto asylum.

True story

Although technically he was not here illegally, I know of a Dominican national that received some type of temporary Medicaid deal and was able to have gallstone surgery in a New York City hospital while he was visiting here and got sick…..

A couple hundred thousand dollars and all paid for by the American taxpayers. When he got sick, he was ready to go back to the Dominican Republic to get the surgery but the big blue urban NYC system said that hold on just a minute

Maybe she was given an "order of supervision" after her asylum was denied because she had no country to be deported to.
