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 gatcha is that electing a democrat like Biden or Harris won’t solve the issue, at best it’ll the same on deportations/deaths from ICE. More likely, deportations would be higher, with not much less of ICE deaths. So when someone said that it wouldn’t be this way, it’s fun to pop peoples bubbles and show them the specifics without the narrative. I’m not saying it would be worse or better, just pointing out that electing someone with higher deportation numbers won’t stop deportations, electing someone that drops more bombs on Muslim countries, and starts more wars, won’t end wars, and someone that raises more, even twice more, corporate money for their election won’t get corporate money out of politics. Yes I know, goal boasts blah blah, not the subjects, whatever.

The issue of unidentified masked men being emboldened to violently kidnap and disappear people off the street? You’re really gonna pretend this incident would have happened under Biden or Harris? That’s beyond absurd.
deportations would be higher
And as I asked you already, so what? Why is the raw number of deportations the gotcha? Do you not understand that isn’t at all what people are complaining about?
Because that is exactly the point I’m trying to make.
At least 26 people have died in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody during the Biden administration. This figure includes 12 deaths recorded in fiscal year 2024 alone, which was the deadliest year under his presidency. The number of deaths has increased significantly in recent years, with the first three years of Biden’s administration seeing no more than four deaths per year, but a sharp rise to 12 in 2024. Despite this, the overall death rate per detainee is lower due to the record-high number of immigrants currently detained.
I never said there more deaths under Biden, just that there were more than 0, also with data that shows his peak was in 24, like it does in your graph.
I’m parsing through this, but I think it’s worth establishing where the goalposts even are at this point.
You’re clearly going for a gotcha here, so help me understand what the gotcha even is.
Is deportation inherently bad? What is a “good” number of deportations?
Let’s even just assume you’re correct, why would Biden having a higher number of deportations inherently be worse?

Now I’m just simple country folk but this is different than the picture you paint.

Biden was president in 2025?
No, I said 24, and it was HIS peak.
Biden’s peak being quite a bit lower then Trump 1 or Trump 2 (so far?)
