How many is it? Your link gets us to 1, and it's from months ago. I expected you to link the number since you're claiming it's high.
Supposedly there's been 500k deportations, and 2.5m "self-deportations" in 2025, so what would be high here?
Edit: I also googled that man's name. A quick read of nbcs article suggests it's not clear he's a citizen. The judge said he "had a substantial claim to citizenship," which means nothing either way. He was born in Thailand.
"In his Nov. 3 brief, [a lawyer] contends Souvannarath stayed in the United States for 19 years after his removal order without challenging it or seeking proof of citizenship."
So, to answer his question: not realistic at all that you'll get deported as a citizen. That's without fact checking you. I haven't seen anything about actual citizens being removed, including in the sibling comment claiming it with a reference.
They now employ minors?
Besides, how realistic is a fear that a law abiding citizen would be endangered by the ICE?
If you are brown, pretty realistic given the number of brown citizens ICE has deported. [1]

Several law abiding citizens have been caught up in the ice dragnet. Pay attention.
Several? Like three?
3/600,000 removals in 2025 = .000005% chance
