The problem is, they aren't just deporting people who are here illegally. They are stopping and detaining people without reasonable articulable suspicion of a crime. They are putting people in detention and shuffling them across the country to delay basic habeas corpus to determine why they are detained. Many of the people they are picking up on ice detainers have committed no crimes and they are here legally in the country through a documented status, which is why they're able to find them so easily. There are numerous news articles where people are showing up for their scheduled court dates because they are legally allowed to be here in the country and when the judge approves them for release immigration comes and picks them up right outside the courthouse. That is totalitarianism when the government is ignoring the rule of law.

So while the majority of the US population agrees that if you are here illegally you should be deported. That's not strictly what's happening. When you point out that the government has a history of abusive power and that many of the people picked up have their entire lives ruined because they're here legally, they have work permits and a documented status to be here, but they are detained for many months so they lose their job their apartment their credit rating is destroyed all of their possessions that they've acquired over many years are lost, and so they self-deport. Which is totally different than the US government deporting someone here who is illegal.

What is going on right now is totalitarianism which if you look around he will find the judges having to remind the government that someone speaking a different language or having a different skin color is not reasonable articulable suspicion of a crime. When the rights of one person are trampled the rights of all of us are trampled and it is totalitarianism.
