CORRECTION: Fact-checkers from The Dispatch have determined that this post isn’t entirely accurate because it’s missing context.
Here is what The Dispatch determined: “Trump, however, never specifically mentioned Latinos or called for mass detention camps during his speech, though he did say that his administration would pursue a large-scale deportation program for undocumented migrants.
While the majority of undocumented migrants encountered at the southern border by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) come from predominantly Latino countries of origin, a significant number also come from non-Latino nations. In fiscal year 2022, for example, Customs and Border Protection recorded approximately 808,000 encounters with migrants from Mexico, but it also encountered approximately 25,000 from Ukraine, 21,000 from Russia, 18,000 from India, 15,000 from Turkey, 6,000 from Romania, and 2,000 from China.”
