“Amid riots in Los Angeles and other cities nationwide against immigration enforcement, some have revived the old talking point that former President Barack Obama was ‘the Deporter-in-Chief.’ The implication is if mass deportations under Obama didn’t spark outrage, why the fury now? But the claim gives credit to Obama where credit simply is not due. Obama didn’t preside over an unprecedented crackdown on illegal immigration [sic] — he redefined deportation statistics to make it look that way.” [editor’s note: Interesting! Trump can’t get his deportation numbers up to Obama/Biden levels, requiring his supporters to “rectify” history 1984-style or else lose their faith – TLK] (06/13/25)
