YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The government keeps saying it is going after the worst of the worst, but its own numbers tell a different story. 📊 A CBS News report based on internal DHS data analyzed nearly 400,000 ICE arrests between January 2025 and January 2026, and the results are stunning. The largest category was not killers or rapists. It was people whose only offense was a civil immigration violation, nearly 40% of all arrests. ⚖️ Homicide accounted for just 0.5%. Sexual assault made up 1.4%. Kidnapping was 0.3%. Arson was 0.1%. Combined, the categories constantly highlighted to justify this operation made up barely 2% of arrests. Meanwhile, DWI and drug offenses totaled 13%, and 30% fell into a vague “all other crimes” category, including non-violent offenses. In total, less than 14% of arrests involved anyone even accused of a violent crime. 🚨 The administration recently overhauled its website after being caught publishing false claims about who it was targeting. They keep saying they are focused on killers and predators, but the data says otherwise. The people being pulled from their homes are overwhelmingly not dangerous criminals, but individuals with minor offenses or no criminal record at all. This was never about public safety. Their own numbers make that clear.
