Blew 25 million? You know the investigation turned a net profit, right?

How did the investigation turn a profit? Did they sell hotdogs on the side? I mean where was the money coming from?

So it earned a profit by discovering and collecting on evaded tax? Interesting.

So were you literally lying or literally wrong?

You also said that ICE makes mistakes when I pointed out that at least some people picked up by ICE are surely wrongly deported. So you must agree that ICE does sometime deport people who have every right to be in the US. In which case you were literally wrong when you said that the only people getting deported are people who crossed the border illegally. Or you were literally lying.


The only people ICE intends to (and does 99.999% of the time) deport are illegal immigrants. That is the simple fact of it. I was responding to a classic liberal fear monger “Trump (because somehow Trump and ICE are synonymous now) will deport legal immigrants” thing.

But you said yourself that ICE makes mistakes. So they will, in fact, deport legal immigrants. What they intend is irrelevant.
