Every administration since the foundation of ICE has removed illegal immigrants and funded ICE and immigration policy/border operations [1].

Every developed country on earth has an immigration policy and an administration dedicated to enforcing it.

No other developed countries have masked goons abducting people in public wearing civil clothes and masks and disregarding every laws of the country (violating private property and foreign embassies, deporting national citizens, and numerous other preposterous bullshit).

Immigration policy enforcement is normal, the madness that has been running in the US for a year isn't.

Yes, but the difference in degree, and how are material. The big showy Hyundai plant raid is an example of something that hasn't happened before. Under Obama there were I-9 audits of Infosys, and under Clinton there was a raid of a Filiberto's, but both of those weren't of foreign workers here to train Americans.
Yes what's happening is totally normal, everybody does it all the time.
