I predict this will tilt the election to Trump

That isn't what this list is. For the most part, this list is people convicted of crimes in the US and currently incarcerated. A few have been released and have no country who will take them (i.e., they aren't able to go back to their country in which they have citizenship). At that point, due to a Supreme Court ruling, ICE has to release them, as they can't permanently detain them for immigration reasons.

 

lol 2019 was a record year for immigration. And immigration is seasonal. It always drops after the summer like it did in 2019.

 

The crime rate is much lower for immigrants. But this is, again, the total number of noncitizens (both legal and illegal immigrants) who have ever been convicted of committing literally any crime at any point of time and remain not in ICE custody.

Some of that is because the crimes for which they are convicted are extremely minor. For example, 77K of the people on that list are guilty of "traffic offenses." We don't usually deport a noncitizen for a minor traffic offense. And those folks likely aren't in prison either. It is when you get up to things like murder or rape, where you will likely be deported regardless of your immigration status, that these are mostly people that are currently in prison but not in ICE custody with a few undeportable released criminals.

Again, that is not what this data is designed to track. There is no data on that in this data.

 

this explains it a little better.

More than 13,000 immigrants convicted of homicide are living outside immigration detention in the U.S., ICE says

BTW, I asked if we know when these people came into the US. Finally got one "Nope, we don't"

 

Criticizing Harris and supporting the legislation are not mutually exclusive. It's possible to do both simultaneously. The same union that criticized Harris is the same one that endorsed the legislation. It's also the same one that endorsed Trump in 2020.

Border Patrol union backs Senate immigration bill despite House GOP opposition
The National Border Patrol Council has previously endorsed Donald Trump for president and routinely takes hard-line positions on immigration enforcement.
"This is absolutely better than what we currently have," National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd told ABC News. When the new expulsion authorities are triggered, agents will work to quickly turn migrants back to Mexico. Judd said he was confident this new authority combined with more detention resources will reduce illegal crossings.

Further, additional resources for migrants who require processing will free up agents to remain on the front line. "They're able to do the job that they were supposed to do as far as protecting the American people and I think that they would feel much better about the job with this bill," Judd said.

 

they may be local or state jails.

Otherwise, i don't have a clue.

 

They aren't generally. Again, you are mixing two very different databases. The data from ICE is not about people encountered on the border. It is about all noncitizens who are currently in the US, including those incarcerated but not in ICE custody. The CBP arrest data does not have any data about anybody being released into the country.

 

It is a pretty small group that are released with prior felony convictions. As pointed out in the earlier articles, they are mostly just people who can't be deported and can no longer be legally detained, as they completed their sentence in the US and their country (or countries) of citizenship won't accept them. ICE can't detain them indefinitely for immigration reasons (due to a Supreme Court ruling). So they have no choice but to release this pretty small group.

 

I answered it.

 

I'll answer the question. These types of things happen when leadership has a win at all costs agenda. In their minds, the ends justified the means, even if that meant cold-blooded undocumented migrant murderers being released on our streets. The ends being securing perpetual power for themselves by importing their own voting bloc.

 

Now you know why we have to "tear down ICE and start from scratch." They might give the people too much information...

 

Yet trump makes far worse comments on a regular basis and maga folks eat it up.

 

Imagine typing such a thing and being serious.
