After numerous attacks on border security from right-wing supporters, President Joe Biden is actually set to surpass the number of deportations that Donald Trump had during his first term as president.

More than 935,000 people were removed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under Trump, while only about 340,000 were removed under Biden. However, between May 12, 2023, and May 12, 2024, the Department of Homeland Security said it deported more than 742,000 people, as reported by KEYE.
