We know that the United States is full of people of different countries, but the deportation of immigrants in the US, especially under the Trump administration, has been a central topic of debate and controversy.

The Executive Order:

In January 2025, the president Donald Trump signed a Executive Order 14159, titled: "Protecting the American People Against Invasion". That order allows deportations to be faster with no court hearing, and financially help ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement). This agency of U.S, since the beginning of 2025, arrested about 2,640 people just in San Francisco, a 123% increase compared to the final seven months of the Biden administration. 

How did it all started?

Donald Trump's harsh decisions on immigrants may have begun to intensify after his re-election, but laws against immigrants have more than a century.  Going back in time, the United States also deported people in the 19th century, but not just for not having documentation, but for being "undesirable" in some points of view, such as bad financial conditions, health and racial problems. However, Nowadays deportations occur more frequently because of undocumented people, even though some racial issues still present.

The benefits of this acts:

Although Donald Trump is investing heavily in deportations of undocumented immigrants, the supposed benefits for these acts are not as great as they seem. Nationalists and "defenders" of the homeland say that by removing immigrants, they will be safer, and without them, jobs will also be easier for the natives. Although, deportations may be causing more harm than good, making both sides ask: Who wins?

And finally, the President's actions seem to be favoring neither immigrants nor natives, even creating family and economic problems. Making us wonder, who really benefits? The immigrants or the natives?
