Summary

The U.S. military’s deportation flight to Guatemala, ordered by Trump, cost approximately $4,675 per migrant—over five times the price of a first-class commercial ticket.

The C-17 military aircraft operation is significantly more expensive than ICE’s commercial charter flights, which cost around $630 per person.

Trump defended the policy, vowing to continue deportations and warning countries that refuse cooperation.

The program, part of Trump’s national emergency declaration, has already deported hundreds, though some countries, like Colombia, have resisted.

    I’m concerned about the danger many of these individuals represent.

    Me too.

    These are incredibly dangerous people.


    This shit doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Take a close look at who they’re spending extra money and effort to scoop up and ship off, and compare that to who they’re setting free.
