20 million?
Good luck

Clinton Obama and Biden deported almost 9 million between them - why do you think deporting 20 million is impossible?

Besides the fact that it’s simply not possible, it would crater the economy

Why doidn that happen under Clinton and Obama?

They did no such thing. They deported about half that number and many of those were turned away at the border.

Few were the kind of people Trump is deporting. People with families and businesses and jobs who had been here for years and committed no (violent) crimes

But you need to lie. You do it as easily as you breathe

On SSI:

"Claims from government statements that “more than 2 million ineligible illegal aliens received a Social Security Number in fiscal year 2024”

"SSI (Supplemental Security Income) and other programs have distinct eligibility rules for noncitizens. PRWORA and subsequent law limited many federal benefits for nonqualified aliens but preserved narrow exceptions for certain categories (refugees, asylees, lawful permanent residents, those in PRUCOL categories), and limited historic entitlements that predate law changes . As a result, some noncitizens can lawfully receive SSI or Social Security benefits — a nuance often elided in political claims "

How many illegal aliens received social security in 20

Executive summary Available reporting does not provide a clear, authoritative count of “illegal aliens” who received Social Security retirement benefits ...

factually.co

So, that shows your first part of your claim is false.

Now;

In general, with respect to an applicant's immigration status, noncitizen eligibility for most federal public benefits—including Medicaid and CHIP—is governed by the term qualified alien (8 U.S.C. §1641), which was created in PRWORA, as amended. Qualified aliens include lawful permanent residents (LPRs), refugees, aliens granted parole for at least one year, aliens granted asylum or related relief, certain abused spouses and children, Cuban-Haitian entrants, and Citizens of the Freely Associated States (FAS) residing in the U.S. states and territories (see text box below). (For more information on these statuses, see CRS Report R47351, Noncitizens' Access to Health Care.) Certain victims of human trafficking, Iraqi and Afghan special immigrants, and certain Afghan and Ukrainian parolees are not necessarily qualified aliens but are treated like refugees for purposes of federal public benefits. Qualified aliens who are otherwise eligible may be covered by Medicaid and CHIP, with certain specified restrictions discussed below (42 C.F.R. §435.406).

Your one line quip here is not only misleading, but outright false...

Illegals receive not only SSI benefits, but also Medicaid in differing forms such as Emergency care, and Dialysis treatment.

Very very few receive those benefits

 

[Hafar1014]

Very very few receive those benefits

Not in Minnsota

 

[Lesh]

Not in Minnsota

Prove it

 

[j-mac]

Very very few receive those benefits

Give me a number with supporting documentation

 

[j-mac]

Prove it

9 billion and counting.

 

[Robert W]

The fact remains that they do. They give fake numbers and employers don’t check

More proof the illegals are breaking the laws.

I see you do not support any limit to immigration

“COME ONE, COME ALL!”

And when they get here kind-hearted libs will spend taxpayer money to put them in luxury hotels and care for all their autistic children

What a deal

You're lying, or talking out your ass.
As per the norm.

Comparing the Biden and Trump Deportation Records

The Biden administration is on pace to carry out as many deportations as the Trump administration, although an overwhelming number have come in the form of voluntary returns at the border, rather than removals of unauthorized immigrants from the U.S. interior. This shift has echoes of earlier...

Science does not warn us, Politicians, (Democrats) do though.

And my point is made.

Your assistance is appreciated.

You stupid tranny ****

Obama deported 3 million. Almost all either violent criminals or at the border itself

Your own link says Biden was on track to match the 1.8 million Trump deported in his first term

That’s HALF OF THE NINE MILLION YOUR ASSHOLE BUDDY CLAIMED

You have no idea who Obama evicted. But he tossed millions out on their asses.

 

[Mac-7]

Luxury hotels your fat ass

I guess we will just have to disagree with you and the pro-migrant lib media over the word “luxury”

At the very least they qualify as luxury to the migrants who are used to sleeping on mud floors back home

And in most cases they are cleaner than the rat and cockroach infested public housing that most American citizens on welfare are living in

Wouldn't have to compete on who deports the most, otherwise if the damned border wasn't left wide open for millions to just waltz and climb their aces right on in here like they own the dam place.

You Democrats done that, but it's amazing how you run around acting like y'all ain't done anything. Meanwhile we got beautiful Americans dead because of it all, and the blood is on the Democrats hands.

Thats a fact

Obama deported them, but looked the other way when they returned

So the net result was more illegal aliens overall
