WASHINGTON — The Trump administration said Thursday that it had deported a record number of illegal immigrants in the past year — with nearly a half-million people living in the US without legal permission forced to return to their homelands. About 60% of those deported under Trump 2. 0 were charged with or convicted of a crime within the US — and were not merely accused of unlawfully residing in the country, according to a Trump administration official.
