More than a dozen West African men who were deported to Ghana by the United States have since been returned to their home countries by the Ghanaian government, despite legitimate fears of torture or persecution at home. Ghana is one of a growing list of countries that have signed "third country agreements" with the United States to accept U.S. deportees. Lee Gelernt, deputy director of the ACLU Immigrants' Rights Project, notes that in many cases judges have ordered the Trump administration not to deport immigrants to countries where they may face persecution. "It's a complete ruse to get around the order from the immigration judge," he says. "This fits a pattern of the Trump administration trying to evade court orders."
