Скачать или смотреть A Year in Trump’s Mass Deportation Campaign

President Donald Trump promised to launch the largest deportation program in American history. Reporters from ProPublica and The Texas Tribune spent the first 12 months of Trump’s second administration examining in real time how this drive to deport immigrants unfolded across the nation.

We collaborated with journalists from Venezuela to collect records from several countries and obtained data the government didn’t make public. We investigated the actions of federal immigration agents who were deployed to cities such as Chicago and Los Angeles. The government has repeatedly told the public that it is targeting the “worst of the worst.” Our reporting shows that in even the most dramatic enforcement actions — including when more than 230 men were deported to a Salvadoran prison — the majority of those apprehended did not have criminal convictions in the U.S.

The mass-deportation drive tops the Trump administration’s list of first-year “wins.” Border crossings have plummeted and the number of detention beds have soared. As federal agents sweep across U.S. cities and towns, administration officials insist that this multibillion-dollar effort is making the country safer.
