Even if we have him the benefit of the doubt, that this is true, it was proven, there was due process ….. ICE snatched more than 100 people. What about the rest of the people?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Citizens commit crimes at a higher rate than immigrants. Both legal and illegal.
https://www.migrationpolicy.org/content/immigrants-and-crime
It's worth noting that there used to be multiple .gov sites hosting information about this, but they are all dead links now.
Fuck this administration and anyone who thinks what's happening is remotely ok.
how many of these crimes is 47 himself personally guilty of?
Yes because Mugshots are done in cars, outside, in hallways, and only occasionally with a flat white background. We all know this.
Seriously though, only some of these are actual mugshots, often they seem to just be pictures of accused people with no fucking names attached so there is no way to fact check it.
you're hung up on the word "mugshots" while i'm sitting over here wondering how hard they must have tried first to have heads on pikes and got denied.
Damn that is an astute observation.
i say this without sarcasm: it's not hard if you're not american.
the last time i was in the US, it amazed me how ubiquitous Fox News is everywhere. like, in your cafes, in your bars, in your casinos - it's fucking everywhere. the rest of us realized how horrible they were a long, long time ago.
that said, i know that a good solid majority of Americans are fully against what's going on. so i'm not knocking you insomuch as just pointing out that the rest of the world isn't being glazed constantly.
Where did you go, Arkansas?
*accused immigrants. *innocent immigrants.
remember: they are innocent until due process happens.
fun fact: the white house is ignoring said process because they are fascist.
I know another criminal mug show they should display there.
Trump: outright threatens to become a dictator, praises Hitler, steals and sells classified documents
News headlines: Allegedly a tiny bit naughty
Trump: Posts random photos of possible kidnapping victims and labels them with heinous crimes sans-trial
News headlines: ILLEGALS
Trump is scared about his polls on immigration and he likely wants whitehouse protesters to protest with this in the background.
A lack of due process has broken through, and he’s freaking out.
I suspect that as Nate Silver says, Trump is doing this sort of thing because he wants to fight about immigration rather than his other, less popular policies - he thinks he has the public support to win on immigration.
Yeah, he might be trying to do that.
He might also be trying to turn his polling on immigration around. All this shady deportation stuff has pushed him underwater on immigration. Americans were majority positive when it was all about slowing crossings, but they’re not down with deporting documented people, deporting people without judicial review, accusing people of gang crimes because they’re brown and have tattoos, or throwing people into gulags.
Cheap, angry teenager, toddler antics ... all coming from someone who is demanding respect.
I expect to see cheap theatrics like this from my deranged neighbourhood far right racist promoter
If I go to a prominent government building, and there's posters of people on row, my first thought would be that these are either candidates or the freshly elected officials.
[looks closer and squints]
Ah, being a foreigner I don't know much about the details of American politics, but these must be the "Senate", right? A drug lord here, a kiddy fiddler there.
Ooo now do the same but with people in the government!!
Wow, that's tacky as shit. Trump has debased the office of POTUS more than anyone could imagine.
Don't like that the news articles are accepting the framing of "illegal immigrants" in the headline when the names etc are unknown. Sure thats what the white house says they are, but they are not trustworthy
