Interested in the authenticity of this photo. But also curious as to the process.

Assuming it’s authentic, how are the people identified as to their country of origin, where are they transported, what provisions are in place for their safe return? How is it communicated to their family here - for example, are these men married to legal citizens and have children who are also legal?

Werent deportations already a thing happening regularly? Like what is different about this deportation flight vs the ones that happened a few weeks ago?

Here is a ICE memo from may of last year talking about deportation flights:

Caption is inaccurate, deportation flights never stopped, and the Biden admin surpassed Trump's highest number for annual deportations.
