After 100 days of incarceration, local immigrant rights activist Eduardo Samaniego has accepted so-called “voluntary departure” and will be deported to Mexico, a country he left a decade ago. In October, Samaniego was arrested in Georgia after forgetting his wallet and failing to pay $27.75 in cab fare - a misdemeanor charge.

On a recent Wednesday morning in Mexico City’s International Airport, family members gathered anxiously for the latest slew of arrivals. The cordon can be a place for joyful reunions, but on three days each week a more somber drama unfolds: Here, every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, about 130 deported Mexican citizens arrive home. The minutes ticked by slowly until finally the deportees stumbled in, clutching their meagre belongings and their crumpled deportation documents. Each had a plastic bag containing a sandwich and a bottle of juice. For many of the younger arrivals, this was their first experience of Mexico. Walking...

He is the world’s most persistent illegal immigrant: One Mexican managed to get deported 44 times in 15 years — which means he also managed to sneak back across the border at least that many times. The runner-up was ousted 40 times from 2001 to 2015. No. 3, 4 and 5 on the list were deported 35, 34 and 31 times, respectively, according to data provided to The Washington Times by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. While those are the most extreme cases, repeat-illegal immigrants were back in the news this week after police said a twice-deported man was driving...

TIJUANA, MEXICO — Rep. Juan Vargas, a California Democrat whose district runs the length of the state’s border with Mexico, introduced a set of bills last fall aimed at helping U.S. military veterans who were deported after they were convicted of crimes. The bills stalled, casualties of what he called bad timing during the presidential campaign.

As the DOJ informs us, Villasenor-Saucedo is a known illegal immigrant who has a long history of legal troubles…

NPR had a broadcast yesterday about Jose Alvarez, a "non-violent drug offender" who was deported from the U.S.  He says America cruelly divided his family by deporting him. You may wonder what his nonviolent drug offense was. So unimportant was his conviction that some articles about his case like this one will not tell you what his crime was.  But NPR and other sources reluctantly admit that he was a crystal meth dealer. That's nonviolent, right?

It's still undecided whether Donald Trump will continue to support forced deportation of millions of undocumented immigrants living in the US, his campaign manager said Sunday.
