23 people have died in ICE custody since the start of the Biden administration.

Yes that is the Biden administration, Red vs blue, it's the same fucking outcome. Yet people refuse to see what's behind it all even though the Epstein files are right there to reveal it. But those have been turned into a red vs blue tool as well. It started with the 2000 elections, red states vs blue states and has only been getting worse since then.

I think it is important to look at what the numbers of deaths in custody actually looked like under Trump vs Biden

2017: 10
2018: 12
2019: 10
2020: 20

That totals 52 deaths in ICE custody in Trump's first term. 

2021: 5
2022: 3
2023: 7
2024: 11

That totals 26 deaths in ICE custody in Biden's term. That is a decline of exactly 50% (though it is important to not that there was a lot going on in the country at that time). 

2025: 32

In just one year, Trump surpassed the entirety of the Biden administration, making it the deadly year for those in ICE custody since 2004, and I don't see things getting any better any time soon.
