Which green card? The conditional (2 year) or the 10 year?

usually, nothing happens to you , if you remain in country. for a 2 year card, is possible to file for the ROC , as well.

ICE won't come and deport you unless there was significant proof of visa fraud.

The coditional 2 year green card. was the one I was talking about. I am just wondering if the American sponsor gets crazy throws you out of the house.. Or worst case scenario you get divorced before the 2yr conditional green card expires. What happens to your status?

In a very broad sense the green card holder can get deported or get full residency status. Deported if the USCIS has evidence of fraud, full residency status if your marriage was not sham.

Good faith or fraud they need documents to prove both.

your sponsor is obligated to the government for ten years, divorce or not. divorces do happen, and if you don't get into trouble with the law anywhere, you'll be able to file to remove your green card conditions even if you are divorced. you'll be ok if you follow the rules.
