Posted 5 hours ago
In a groundbreaking achievement, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced that in May, zero illegal aliens were released into the United States—a stark contrast to the 62,000 released during the same month last year under the previous administration.
This remarkable turnaround signals the effectiveness of the current administration's strict immigration policies, spearheaded by President Donald Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
CBP Acting Commissioner Pete Flores reported a staggering 93% drop in illegal border crossings compared to May 2024. Only 8,725 illegal aliens were apprehended across the nation last month, showcasing the administration’s commitment to securing the southern border and restoring law and order.
In addition to these impressive figures, drug seizures were markedly higher, with agents intercepting 718 pounds of fentanyl and experiencing significant increases in heroin and cocaine confiscations.
These accomplishments reflect a renewed vigor in immigration enforcement, with CBP leveraging all available resources to expedite removals and eliminate catch-and-release practices entirely.
Flores emphasized the positive trend, stating, "Border numbers continue to trend at historic lows, reinforcing the sustained success of our enforcement efforts in securing the homeland and protecting American communities."
Moreover, the economic impact of these enforcement actions is evident, as CBP processed over $276 billion in imports and collected nearly $27 billion in duties last month. The agency also detained several shipments suspected of violating American labor laws and seized nearly 3 million counterfeit goods worth over $317 million.
This decisive action on border security and immigration not only protects American citizens but also showcases the stark differences between current policies and those of the preceding administration, further solidifying support for the laws and guidelines put forth by President Trump.
As the administration continues to prioritize effective immigration strategies, Americans can take solace in knowing that their safety and security are at the forefront of national efforts.
