On this week’s episode of The Stream, we examine the implications of President Trump’s plan to drastically increase deportations across the United States.
Following his return to power, Trump has intensified his approach towards immigration by exerting greater pressure on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to sharply elevate the number of deportations. This segment of The Stream will investigate the resistance to these aggressive measures, dissect the changes they are enacting in the nation’s immigration laws, and scrutinize the profound impacts they have on both the human experience and the economy within the United States.
