Illegal immigration slows as deportations accelerate

 Daily Wire:

The Trump administration’s mass deportation campaign is surging, with more than 389,000 illegal immigrants already removed from the United States, The Daily Wire has learned.


As of Tuesday, the feds had also arrested more than 415,000 illegal immigrants, Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told The Daily Wire.


Federal immigration authorities are now on track to deport close to 600,000 illegal immigrants by the end of Trump’s first year in office.


While the latest deportation numbers outpace the previous fiscal year — when 271,000 illegal immigrants were removed from the United States — they still fall short of the administration’s goal of carrying out 1 million deportations each year.


Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons recently told The Daily Wire that the agency is likely to meet its goal with the help of the administration’s efforts to push illegal immigrants to self-deport.

“I think we’re going to see our number, definitely with the CBP Home app and those that decided to leave on their own,” Lyons said.


Still, Lyons acknowledged that liberal judges “opining” from the bench have successfully created “roadblocks” that are “impeding how we’re doing our law enforcement mission.”

The number of undocumented immigrants entering the US has also decreased significantly.  During the Biden administration, millions of illegals were crossing the border, but now the numbers have significantly slowed.  Trump has demonstrated that the US can control the border.
