Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

"But I'm a citizen, I'm a green-card holder, etc." It doesn't matter anymore. They are illegally detaining people who are here legally. If you live in the U.S., there is probably an ICE holding facility being built near you. These are becoming glorified concentration camps.

No one knows why he was detained.
