Trump government deported 139,000 irregular immigrants, says secretary

Donald Trump’s government has deported 139,000 irregular immigrants since the republican’s second term, said Tom Homan, White House’s border secretary, after a question by Priscilla Alvarez, from CNN, in a collective.

“[Se] Am I satisfied with the numbers? Numbers are good, especially if you look at the numbers [da Imigração e Alfândega dos EUA]“Homan pointed out.

He denied that this amount is smaller than in relation to Joe Biden’s government. He stated that the discrepancy is due to the way the Biden government has accounted for deportations.

“The deportations are behind the Biden government. Why? Because they have accounted for the border expulsions,” Homan argued.

“We have no deportation on the border,” he added, observing the significant decrease of people crossing the border illegally.

“So Joe Biden could have deported 5% of the meetings [na fronteira] And the numbers would still be bigger than ours in terms of border deportations, because we have a safe border, the safest in the history of this country, ”he concluded.
