In Part 3 of my series on ICE arrest data, I incorporate Deportation Data Project's new data to find (1) a surge in non-criminal ICE arrests and (2) an overall decline in daily arrests in June.
I see this "manufacturing of endless crisis" as the main motive behind these terribly high arrest quotas ICE is supposed to meet. It's why in their rush to make the quotas ICE agents will go for the "low hanging fruit" of immigrants with no criminal history and no good reasons to be removed from the US other than to meet a possible racist agenda of Trump's donors. And with less immigrant workers in the fields this summer, the US really will have a crisis when the store shelves are empty and the crops are left rotting in the fields because no one was there to pick them.
