A woman is dead after being shot by a federal agent during an ICE operation Wednesday morning in south Minneapolis. U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called the woman's actions leading up to the shooting "an act of domestic terrorism."
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.
In that 2nd chart, from prison policy. It’s only showing 3 months of 2024 though, and they average about 300 ICE deportations per day. When I compare that number to the ice website, numbers are way off, unless they were on crack those 3 months. So what’s off here?
So then why was I given that chart? And then the first chart barely has an increase in deportations compared to 22 & 23, just a massive spike in domestic flights.
As said, I was hoping for something that covers even the Obama years, at least Trumps first term, but I guess the ICE website doesn’t provide that data anymore. Could’ve sworn some official website did, maybe it was DHS.

How did you arrive at that 300 number…?

Nothing in that chart references deportations at all…

Why did you provide data that only goes up to December 2024 as a source to prove that deportations were higher under Biden than Trump?

But that’s not what you said, is it? You asserted that the data you shared covered the first year of Trumps second term.
Why did you provide it as a source for your claim when it doesn’t actually include what you said it includes?
