A little-known deportation program under the Trump administration has quietly sent thousands of individuals to countries across Africa, South America, and the Caribbean, including Liberia and Guyana. These removals were carried out through a network of often-secret agreements that bypassed traditional legal processes. The program highlights how immigration enforcement expanded beyond high-profile border policies, targeting individuals with ties to nations where repatriation was logistically easier. Details of the arrangements remain largely undisclosed, raising questions about transparency and due process.


Under a series of often-secret agreements, the Trump administration has deported some 25,000 people to more than two dozen countries, including Liberia and Guyana.
