Under the Trump administration, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has been accused of manipulating Google search results by reposting old press releases with updated timestamps.

Reports from various states detail this manipulation, which includes press releases about arrests dating back as far as 2008. The tactic coincides with ongoing discussions about ICE's activities, including the release of some detained migrants back into the community.
