Unknown deported Hondurans

During Donald Trump's second term as president of the United States, his administration has pursued a deportation policy generally described as "hardline", "maximalist", and as a "mass deportation" campaign, involving the detention, confinement, and expulsion of hundreds of thousands of immigrants and their family members. The Trump administration has claimed that around 140,000 people had been deported as of April 2025, though some estimates put the number at roughly half that. On August 28, 2025, CNN reported that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) alone had deported nearly 200,000 people in seven months since Trump returned to office. By January 2026, the number of people which ICE alone deported rose to roughly 540,000.
