The role of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has significantly expanded during Trump's second term, with increased emphasis on arrests and removals. Over 142,000 deportations occurred within the first 100 days of Trump's presidency, despite disputes over these figures. With intensified measures such as family separations and workplace raids, protests have emerged, including violent incidents in Los Angeles following recent ICE operations. Social media has played a notable role in disseminating claims about deportations, including falsehoods that deportees are being dropped in the ocean, which remain unverified.
"In Trump's first 100 days, over 142,000 people were deported, though others have disputed these numbers."
"The intensified enforcement measures, including workplace raids and family separations, have triggered widespread protests."
"Most recently, there have been violent clashes in Los Angeles after ICE raids in early June 2025."
