... That's like $100,000 a person. Not to mention transportation costs, costs to house them while in custody, cost to apprehend them. Makes absolutely no sense. Spend $100k on anyone, and you can make them into a valuable, productive member of society (assuming they weren't already).

Palau's like,"They aren't criminals? They're just hard-working immigrants, huh? And you want to give us 7.5 million? What's the catch?"

$100k per person. And what's 75 people considering the masses ICE goons are rounding up. Must be this "government efficiency". If the situation was less fucked up alround, this alone would create an outrage, mostly from those very same far-right knuckleheads. Un-fucking-believable. Thank you Snopes, thank you OP.

As a scuba diver, being deported to Palau might be the start of a life that I didn't know I wanted.

Up to 75? Why even bother?
