But once you've been deported, your recourse is very limited.

I haven't really done the proportionality, but because ICE is just so much more ubiquitous and visible now, it does mean that they're getting into more of these confrontations with people.

And so most famously, you have the shooting death of Rene Good.

And we've seen a really high number of deaths in ICE detention.

And that's partially because there are just so many more people in ICE detention.

If you have an open asylum case, under the law, you can be detained for the entirety of your asylum case.

You can't be deported until it's been decided one way or another.
