"“Help, my children are at school,” a Venezuelan mother cried in anguish as ICE agents took her away after leaving an immigration court appointment in San Antonio, Texas."
"They're seeking to sow terror because they want to convince migrants to self-deport. A regular deportation process costs between $16,000 and $17,000 per person deported."
"The most radically anti-immigration population doesn't exceed 35%, so this whole spectacle could backfire on them in the short term. This is something they're not considering."
"A study by The Associated Press-NORC Centre for Public Affairs Research reveals that 46% of adults in the United States approve of Trump's handling of immigration."
The Trump administration's recent actions against migrants, particularly focusing on mothers, have drawn significant public attention. Disturbing incidents of women being detained in front of their children have surfaced, including a Venezuelan mother who was taken away after a court appointment, causing her distress, and other mothers experiencing panic attacks during arrests. While these actions may be intended to deter migrants from entering the U.S. and reduce deportation costs, studies indicate a mixed reception among the public, with approval ratings for Trump's immigration policies remaining relatively stable despite potential backlash from these extreme measures.
