A little historical perspective on all those deportations under Obama. At the time he was trying to secure comprehensive immigration reform, which combined heightened border security and enforcement with a path to citizenship for almost all undocumented workers & their families.

What happened next? Republicans did not make good on their end of the bargain. With rank and file conservatives in revolt, GOP leadership declined to even take up an immigration bill. Take what lesson you want from Obama’s experience.

What happened next? The strategy worked and Congress passed comprehensive immigration reform, right?

.LIES. Obama changed what they considered deportations so every time they turned someone back at the border they started calling it a deportation - in order to fake count. You people are pathetic. Enemies of the people.

Kids, this is what it looks like when the liberals try to rewrite history. And the lefty loons (you know, the kind that nod at whatever Head Quack
@AOC) lap this garbage up. No critical thinking skills.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

No, deportations didn't really rise. Everyone knows that. Even Obama has said it's because they were counted in a new way. C'mon, man. If you write about immigration, check your facts with Kaus first. How does a Times reporter get something so easy to know so wrong? Honestly...

Stop lying you scumbag. The deportations were an illusion because they counted quick returns.
