Fact check: How many women have been deported in Trumps deportations

Checked on August 17, 2025

1. Summary of the results

The analyses reveal that no specific data exists on the number of women deported during Trump's presidency. All sources consistently indicate that while comprehensive deportation statistics are available, they are not broken down by gender.

The available data shows significant deportation activity during Trump's second term:

  • 66,463 illegal aliens were arrested and 65,682 aliens were removed during the first 100 days of Trump's second presidency [1]
  • Approximately 37,660 people were deported in Trump's first month back in office, with a significant portion having no criminal records [2]
  • ICE made arrests of 752 non-citizens convicted of murder and 1,693 convicted of sexual assault as of May 2025 [3]

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original question assumes that gender-specific deportation data is readily available and tracked, but the analyses reveal several important contextual gaps:

  • Lack of demographic transparency: Immigration enforcement agencies do not appear to publicly report deportation statistics broken down by gender, despite tracking other demographic information [3] [1]
  • Broad targeting approach: The deportation efforts were described as "broad and indiscriminate, affecting various immigrant populations including families, asylum seekers, and individuals with legal status" [4], suggesting women were likely affected proportionally to their representation in these groups
  • Policy focus vs. demographic impact: The Trump administration emphasized targeting individuals with criminal records and gang members [1], but the actual impact on different demographic groups, including women, remains undocumented in public reporting
  • Due process concerns: The American Immigration Council highlighted "the lack of transparency and due process in these procedures" [4], which could disproportionately affect vulnerable populations including women

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original question contains an implicit assumption that may be misleading:

  • Assumes available data: The question presupposes that gender-specific deportation statistics are tracked and publicly available, when the evidence shows this data is not systematically reported [3] [4] [5]
  • Lacks temporal specificity: The question refers to "Trump's deportations" without specifying whether it refers to his first presidency (2017-2021) or his second term (2025-present), though the analyses focus primarily on his second term activities
  • Missing acknowledgment of data limitations: The question doesn't recognize that immigration enforcement agencies may not prioritize or publicly report demographic breakdowns of deportation activities, which could lead to unrealistic expectations about data availability
