"Deportation deals

Other countries in Africa, including Ghana, Rwanda, South Sudan and Uganda, have also accepted migrants deported from the US.

👉The US policy has drawn criticism from rights groups over the legality of sending deportees to countries where they are not from and could face human rights violations.👈

In some cases, the deportees have been later sent back to their home countries despite receiving legal protection from US courts to prevent that from happening.

👉The Trump administration is thought to have spent at least $40m to deport about 300 migrants to third countries up to the end of January, according to a report compiled by Democrats on the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Countries have received lump sums ranging from $4.7m to $7.5m to receive deportees.👈

The AP has reported that 47 other third-country agreements are currently being negotiated with other nations.""

"ICE has grown dramatically under Trump. Ten years ago, the agency had an annual budget that was less than $6 billion, making it one of the smaller agencies at DHS. In just one year under Trump, it has become the federal law enforcement agency with the biggest budget at $85 billion."

These leaders have a mental illness. It's racism and capitalism blended into toxic waste. America sets bad examples for the world, like the German Nazis our leaders broadly adulate by imitation.
