Following President Trump's threats of mass deportations, mega shelters designed for deportees along the U.S.-Mexico border are notably underutilized. Only a fraction of the shelters, capable of housing 2,500 people, have seen any influx, with reports indicating that around 2,000 Mexican migrants are currently in government-operated facilities. Despite the deployment of additional National Guard troops at the border and a significant number of overall deportations, the anticipated surge of repatriations has failed to materialize, raising questions about the effectiveness of Trump's immigration policy.
The Mexican government's mega shelters set up for deportees are mostly empty a month after Trump threatened mass deportations, showcasing setbacks in his promises.
A Mexican official expressed relief over the lack of deportees, stating, 'We hope there won't be a large repatriation,' despite the large facilities available.
There's a stark contrast in deportation numbers, indicating an increase under Trump's administration compared to the previous Biden administration, highlighting policy shifts.
Trump's promise of mass deportations has yet to materialize, with only small numbers of migrants utilizing newly established facilities meant to handle significant influxes.
