Summary
WASHINGTON, Aug 2 (Reuters) - The Trump administration says that some serious criminals need to be deported to third countries because even their home countries won't accept them. But a review of recent cases shows that at least five men threatened with such a fate were sent to their native countries within weeks.
President Donald Trump aims to deport millions of immigrants in the U.S. illegally and his administration has sought to ramp up removals to third countries, including sending convicted criminals to South Sudan and Eswatini, formerly known as Swaziland, two sub-Saharan African nations.
Immigrants convicted of crimes typically first serve their U.S. sentences before being deported. This appeared to be the case with the eight men deported to South Sudan and five to Eswatini, although some had been released years earlier.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said in June that third-country deportations allow them to deport people “so uniquely barbaric that their own countries won’t take them back.” Critics have countered that it’s not clear the U.S. tried to return the men deported to South Sudan and Eswatini to their home countries and that the deportations were unnecessarily cruel.
Reuters found that at least five men threatened with deportation to Libya in May were sent to their home countries weeks later, according to interviews with two of the men, a family member and attorneys.
After a U.S. judge blocked the Trump administration from sending them to Libya, two men from Vietnam, two men from Laos and a man from Mexico were all deported to their home nations. The deportations have not previously been reported.

SEND THEM HOME ...
A MILLION LEGAL IMMIGRANTS WOULD LOVE TO TAKE THEIR PLACES - AND THEY’LL MAKE BETTER CITIZENS.
Often the leads in their home countries get political pressure to take back their criminals. The problem that then arises is that often the home countries, if they are hostile to us, will send those criminals back here. Better for everyone to give them a taste of Central Africa to help ‘reform’ them.
“A MILLION LEGAL IMMIGRANTS WOULD LOVE TO TAKE THEIR PLACES - AND THEY’LL MAKE BETTER CITIZENS.”
True, but ideally from Europe and other countries that are now transitioning to Islamic rule.
Send them all to Ukraine as military aid.
So what?
Just get them out of this country.
If they just went back to their homes voluntarily, they wouldn’t have to worry about such things.
Because we are not a travel agency.
You get what you get.
Or you make your own choice and act on it before America does.
The last thing we need is to replace them!
Just send them home.
It doesn’t matter what country they are deported to, just get them the hell out of the US and send the Obozo, Biden and Mayorkas with them!!
Send them all to Ukraine as military aid.AKA canon fodder.
Critics ask why migrants illegal immigrants can't be deported home instead
Fixed it.
fake news.
The reason Trump is deporting them to 3rd party countries is because these illegals CLAIM asylum, and thus, courts won’t allow them to be deported to their home countries. By threatening to send them to Africa, Trump is calling the illegal aliens’ asylum bluff, forcing them to accept being deported back to their home countries instead.
Incredible, we are trying to get rid of people "uniquely barbaric" and critics are concerned for their well being.
So what?
Just get them out of this country.
my thought exactly
AMF!
DONT CARE WHERE
“You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.”
What is that line at closing time, “You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.”
I don’t give a damn where they’re sent. They just can’t remain here.
That moment while playing chicken and the other guy swerves out of the way.
