President Trump has vowed to expel what he calls 'the worst of the worst' among migrants, painting them as dangerous criminals. However, data from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) shows that a significant majority of current detainees, about 71.7%, have no criminal convictions. This includes individuals with pending charges and those targeted purely for immigration reasons. Experts highlight a disconnect between the government's claims about targeting violent offenders and the reality of who is actually being detained.
The majority of people currently detained by ICE have no criminal convictions, starkly contradicting Trump's characterization of them as dangerous criminals.
