The Trump regimes deportation monomania has left far more people dead and wounded than it wants you to know. Agents public executions of Renee Good and Alex Pretti have rightly drawn widespread fury, heartbreak, and action. And they are just two of the at least eight people agents have murdered or caused to die in the field between July 2025 and January 28, 2026. Even more people have died in immigration prison, in an even shorter time. Between July 2025 and January 28, 2026, 35 people have died in Trumps concentration camps. These are minimum numbersonly the ones that the Trump regime has told us about, only the ones that have made it, sometimes, into the news cycle. And as for the people federal agents have merely injured? An official count doesnt exist. There is no doubt that the regime is working overtime to hide the full scope of the terror campaign spreading across our country.
The Prospect is launching this tracker to do our part to stop them from getting away with it. We are collecting data to bring the real harm into sharper focus than Trump and his sadistic coterie want you to know. We are also doing it as a counterbalance to the mainstream medias sanitation of what we would call pogroms if it was happening in any other country. Consider, for example, how The New York Times represents the deadly operation in Minnesota, under the title Minneapolis Tensions. Now consider if that would accurately reflect your anguish if modern-day slave catchers used your toddler as bait and then threw him in prison. Or if they marched your grandfather outside in the snow, wearing only his boxers. Or, God forbid, chased your beloved husband or brother or uncle to his death. Would tensions be good enough? No.
None of these deaths had to happen. All are a result of Trumps racist mass deportation drive. They are a stain on our country and we refuse to forget.
Some details about how our tracker is organized: Our information comes from a variety of sources, primarily news reports, government data, and other sources such as immigration legal advocates. The agency involved is also included. About those agencies: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol are both active, though most people call all agents ICE. Border Patrol is an agency housed under Customs and Border Protection (CBP); all these agencies are within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Fields are left blank when those details are absent from reports. We will update this tracker as more information becomes available.
