      From the article:

      While it’s not yet clear how many citizens have been affected by the administration’s attack on immigrant communities, a government report found that between 2015 and 2020, Ice erroneously deported at least 70 US citizens, arrested 674 and detained 121.

        They DEPORTED 70 US citizens? Deported to where? If they are US citizens they can’t be deported.

        Anyone associated with deporting a US citizens should be fired first, prosecuted second, and sued third.

          That’s the issue with suspending due process for illegal immigrants.
          All you have to do is say someone is an illegal immigrant and they lose all rights to defend themselves and disprove the false claim.

          Some preliminary research: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deportation_of_Americans_from_the_United_States

          Several of them on this list received compensation after bringing a case against the government.
