Summary: Donald Trump declared that illegal immigration was at historic lows during his first full month in office, with only 8,326 apprehensions of illegal immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. He claimed this was the lowest number ever recorded, asserting that "The Invasion of our Country is OVER." Trump contrasted this with the Biden administration, which he said saw over 300,000 illegal crossings in one month, with most immigrants being released into the U.S. He also emphasized the effectiveness of his policies, including immediate deportations and criminal penalties for illegal entrants. Trump's administration had focused heavily on cracking down on illegal immigration, including deploying the military, suspending refugee admissions, and ending birthright citizenship. In contrast, the Biden administration saw higher apprehensions and removals, with over 700,000 removals in fiscal year 2024, the highest in years.
