Legally, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement does not have the constitutional or statutory authority to deport United States citizens, as federal immigration laws apply exclusively to foreign nationals. However, administrative errors, mistaken identity, data mismatches, or complex citizenship verification issues have historically led to rare, documented instances where U.S. citizens were wrongfully detained or targeted by immigration authorities before citizenship was successfully proven and verified.
