Hundreds of "illegal immigrant criminals" in the U.S. were arrested and hundreds more flown out of the country on military aircraft as President Trump's promised mass deportation operation got underway, the White House said.

    It’s just a start. They’re trying to figure out a way to do it, that will let them get around any of the legal restrictions that are currently an obstacle. Trump has repeatedly said that he hates that people get to go before a judge, and make their case for why they should stay in the country or present any evidence that the government got it wrong. And then the judge gets to decide, instead of ICE just being their own roaming kings of the land, upending people’s lives and moving on, unbound by the structures of man.

      I mean last time they gave the judges a trial time metric and an indicator of the “correct” ratio of deportation vs asylum granting. If it becomes extra judicial we’re really fucked.

        Source? Different judges had widely varying percentages of asylum grants, going all the way from near 0 to near 100. What was the “correct” ratio supposed to be and where did you get this information?
