Since taking the oath of office, Obama has deported immigrants at a faster rate than any other president in US history, nearly a record 2 million people. ... Most deportees never see an attorney or have a hearing before a judge before they are expelled from the country...one-quarter of all deportees are separated from their US citizen children and countless others from spouses and other family members. ... ...individuals are denied due process, punished twice for the same crime (first with prison, then deportation), detained and judged guilty without access to a judge or legal counsel. ... US law defines deportation is an "administrative measure," not a type of punishment...

I'd say this puts the lie to FOX News, O'Reilly, the RINO candidates, the Democrats and the Lamestream Media when they say that Trump "can't" deport 11 million illegals. Not to mention the idea that it's "evil" to do it makes about as much sense as Obama being against same-sex marriage but then, on the day he changes his mind, all of those who he used to agree with are now branded evil for not changing their minds with him.
Just double funding and staffing for immigration authorities, tell them to work twice as hard, and in 4 years, 8 million will be deported. Most likely the remaining 3 million or more will see the writing on the wall and self-deport.
Since Trump wants to bring back in the good ones, I would suggest that he tells the illegals anyone who gets deported is barred from ever entering the country again. But if they self-deport without requiring us to apprehend them, they will be allowed to re-apply for entry legally. That stick and carrot approach should ramp up self-deportations dramatically and let us get the job done faster and cheaper.
A returnee is someone caught, usually within 24 hours or less after entry. They then voluntarily return to try again another day.
Under that classification one can be deported multiple times.
A deportee used to be someone who went through the legal process of being deported.
I would say this is p.c.b.s.
obuma hasn’t done anything except divide this country...
Must have been Christians.

I agree that it sounds like BS. However, if Obama wants to claim that he deported 2 million people, it certainly makes it hard for the Democrats to make the case that Trump can’t deport the people he intends to deport.
Of course deportations are way up. That’s because 0bama uses a very litteral interpretation of deportation.
Deportation - De, meaning ‘of’, port meaning entryway (french for door), and ‘ation’, as in motion or transportation. Put it all together, and it means every time a criminalian goes thru a a room door, car door, bus door, or bathroom door, it’s counted as a “deportation”. Thus, while an illegal goes thru buildings, cars, stores, 0’ becomes the most deporting president in history.
...and then there’s that....lol.....
I don’t know if Obama’s stats are manipulated, but this other article says Bush Jr. also did 2 million. So the overall point is, we’ve deported millions before. We know how to do it. Ramping it up and doubling or tripling the effort is far from impossible, the way FOX News, Kasick, Yeb and Rhubarb like to claim.
As of March 8 [2014], the Obama administration had deported 2,087,456 people since fiscal 2009, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement statistics.
By comparison, the U.S. deported 2,012,539 people under Bush; 869,646 people under President Bill Clinton; 141,326 under President George H.W. Bush; and 168,364 people under President Ronald Reagan, according to ICE statistics.
Uhh........actually, he hasn’t.
The just moved the goalposts. They redefined the word “deportation”.
The way Obama “accomplishes” anything. They changed the definition of “deportation.”
Now, anyone the Border Patrol turns away has been “deported.”
They deported the same 20K people 100 times.
..... Yup ... that's right .... This administration needed this slight of hand symbolism to bolster it's image of actually appearing to do their job.
.... However .... in fact .... almost this entire Administration as well as Most of Congress have been mired and guilty of Dereliction of Duty by not fulfilling their sworn Duty to Protect, Defend and Uphold the Constitution of the United States. They only desire to pretend and create the illusion that they are doing so!!!
Somehow Obummer missed the murderer of Kate Steinle who enter ILLEGALLY 5 times.
But how can this be?? It's all over the news how each Illegal is entitled to "due process".
Bingo!
Regards,
Obama is the first president to count people captured at the border as being “deported.”
Deportations from the interior USA are dramatically lower for Obama when compared to George W. Bush, who also supported Amnesty!
