Summary
The U.S. military’s deportation flight to Guatemala, ordered by Trump, cost approximately $4,675 per migrant—over five times the price of a first-class commercial ticket.
The C-17 military aircraft operation is significantly more expensive than ICE’s commercial charter flights, which cost around $630 per person.
Trump defended the policy, vowing to continue deportations and warning countries that refuse cooperation.
The program, part of Trump’s national emergency declaration, has already deported hundreds, though some countries, like Colombia, have resisted.
Here, I thought it might be helpful to clarify your position for the people who don’t speak conservative.
