>People were also being deported by ICE, in larger quantities, but that didn’t even make the news.

That's because most news are (or were) partisan with a liberal bias.

Just like a republican bias makes you miss the fact that whether Obama was deporting more in larger quantities, Trump has moved the Overton window about what ICE is allowed to do, how blatantly they can do it, and what they get away with even if it's still illegal.
