> they broke the law crossing the border illegally
The majority here crossed legally and overstayed their visa. That's just basic table-stakes knowledge for this issue, please remember it. Bonus points if you know that overstaying is a civil infraction like a parking ticket, below the level of a misdemeanor.

That's what the professional liar says, but why would you trust him on that?

How the hell can you "factually" know that when the Trump administration still won't even explain what criteria they are using!? (Even assuming they'll be making any honest effort at all.)
Most if not all of them.
You are conveniently leaving out the one very important detail that justifies the deportations: Illegal. These people getting deported are illegal aliens, they broke the law crossing the border illegally so they cannot complain about getting arrested, charged and convicted, and deported back where they came from. They have no right to be here.
What's worse, these initial rounds of deportations are prioritizing illegal aliens with violent criminal records. These people are factually the worst of the worst. Of fucking course we should and will deport them.
