Is this a step or 2 farther or deeper than we imagined this action would go?

If 20 million is anywhere near true under Biden, why are they already down to someone who has been here 20+ years?

Because in most non-clownworld states, ICE is allowed into prisons and jails to pick up Illegal aliens safely while they are already in custody. Oregon and other 'sanctuary' states will not allow law enforcement to enforce the law. So that gives them plenty of time to apprehend other people here illegally.

The suspect was here in our country illegally for 22 years, and he couldn't try to become legal in all that time??? Fortunately, the family can have DHS fund their move to Dad's home country so that the family can be together. They will even kick in $3,000 apiece and a free plane ticket, from what I understand.

Oregon is dying on the vine due to illegals, fentanyl, and democrats.

It’s interesting to examine the varying levels of compassion toward long-time neighbors being snatched and “disappeared” without due process confirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court even for noncitizens whose presence is unlawful.

Many elements of such due process reportedly have been denied to Juan Miguel Aldape.

From one current newspaper story: “Juan Miguel Aldape pays his taxes annually, he is a devout Catholic and he is a caregiver for his youngest son with autism, his relatives say. He’s lived with his wife for 22 years in Newberg, the wine country town where they chose to raise their family.”

One element of due process is U.S. Code providing Cancellation of Removal for Certain Nonpermanent Residents who can establish at least 10 years of continuous physical presence in the United States, good moral character during that period, no disqualifying criminal convictions, and “exceptional and extremely unusual” hardship to the person’s lawful-permanent-resident family.

There are millions more like Juan Miguel Aldape in America who have lived multi-decade exemplary lives with strong ties to families, children, friends, neighbors, church and community. Some people believe they should all be tracked down and unceremoniously deported; others disagree, but lack any voice in the process.
