Kelsey Norman and Nicholas Micinski explain why ICE tactics are shocking Americans: militarized immigration enforcement used to happen at the border, far from most people's lives. From 2010-2020, nearly 80% of deportations were initiated at or near the US-Mexico border. 🧵

👋 Joining BlueSky to launch our first report, on immigration enforcement in the first nine mos. of the Trump admin.

Big picture: deportations from interior arrests are up 4.6x from the end of Biden's term, from big increase in arrests, expansion in detention beds, & drastic reduction in releases.
