Syracuse, N.Y. — Case-by-case records provided by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) show that many fewer individuals were apprehended, deported or detained by the agency than were claimed in its official statements — congressional testimony, press releases, and the agency's latest 2010 Yearbook of Immigration Statistics.
The ICE data was provided to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University in late December, almost two years — 582 days — after TRAC had requested it on May 17, 2010.
Details about the vast differences between the agency activities documented by the data and its public statements are laid out in a FOIA appeal filed by TRAC on January 4. The surprising size of the discrepancies, the TRAC appeal said, indicated that either "ICE has been making highly exaggerated and inaccurate claims about the level of its enforcement activities," or it is "withholding on a massive scale."
TRAC's appeal emphasized that this was not an inconsequential bookkeeping problem, noting "that the alleged failure of the federal government to enforce the immigration laws has been a hotly debated topic during both the Bush and Obama administrations."
"Thus, the agency's apparent inability to substantiate the level of its claimed enforcement activities is a very significant matter," the appeal continued. "Indeed it is central to the current public debate on federal enforcement policy in the ongoing presidential election campaign."
TRAC requested a formal agency investigation of the matter or that it be referred to the Office of Inspector General.

I really don’t believe much of anything the Obama regime puts out. It’s all commie ‘RAT propaganda.
Here is the direct evidence and if you follow the link it’s even more damning.
You have to consider the executive branch method of the extrapolation of combined possibilities/probabilities that merge into supportive data that can be used by MSM.
In other words, they’re most likely counting and taking credit for the self deported.

If confronted Obumbler will deny he knew anything about this.
Hopefully these stats will be asked for in court in the many cases of Obumbler vs the states.
Just another lie that this fascist regime gets a pass for. Last year they touted how they were catching/deporting way more than Bush or others ever did. I guess the “wink-wink” was ignored by the MSM, but understood by supportes because they didn’t rise up against the “injustice of it all”.
Anyone who lives in the NYC metro area knew these statements were lies at the time; I posted as much back then. If anything, there are even more illegals here; you can ask all of our out-of-work American roofers, landscapers, construction crews. In my town the Peruvian Day Parade has far surpassed the St. Patrick’s Day Parade (which in the past had been well-known), and it is followed by a concert in a local park that features a huge stage flanked by giant inflatable bottles of Inca Cola. The garbage left on the ground contributes to an air of genuine “Peruvian-ness”.
Report false data, fool the sheep with the headlines, wait for the truth to be discovered and swept into one meaningless and hidden line of media reports, sit back well pleased.....
