Ron DeSantis announces mass arrests that’s breaking records
DeSantis is a top notch governor. He’s very good at accomplishing his agenda.
And Ron DeSantis announced mass arrests that’s breaking records.
Florida is striking back hard against the invasion at U.S. borders, with Governor Ron DeSantis unleashing a no-nonsense crackdown that’s already hauled in over 10,000 illegal aliens. This isn’t just talk—it’s real action that’s cleaning up American streets.
On Monday, DeSantis stepped up to the plate and declared victory in the ongoing battle, revealing that “Operation Tidal Wave” has led to the arrest and removal of 10,400 illegal immigrants since April of 2025. Teaming up with ICE, Florida’s law enforcement is showing the rest of the nation how it’s done.
In a social media blast, DeSantis didn’t hold back: “Today, I was proud to announce a new milestone in our joint efforts to combat illegal immigration and restore order in our communities: Florida law enforcement have arrested more than 10,400 illegal immigrants across the state. Florida leads—again!”
At a press conference that same day, Attorney General James Uthmeier laid it out plain and simple, stressing that the priority is shielding everyday Floridians from the dangers posed by criminal illegals, according to WCTV.
“People preying upon and abusing little kids that are illegal immigrants have no business being here in the first place,” Uthmeier stated.
Digging deeper, reports from Florida’s Voice show that more than 60 percent of those nabbed had existing criminal histories or convictions.
According to the outlet, Florida stands alone in its ironclad commitment, being the only state that requires full 287(g) cooperation in every single one of its 67 counties.
This partnership with federal deportation teams is a game-changer, ensuring no corner of the Sunshine State becomes a safe haven for illegals.
DeSantis didn’t stop at words—he shared a powerful infographic highlighting how his state is spearheading the charge against illegal immigration.
It proudly declares “Operation Tidal Wave” as the biggest coordinated enforcement push in the entire country.
This momentum built up in September when ICE poured millions in federal dollars into Florida’s participating law enforcement agencies, according to Florida’s Voice. These funds reward those who’ve joined the 287(g) program to work hand-in-hand with Homeland Security on immigration enforcement.
The numbers tell the story: Florida now boasts 325 state agencies locked into this federal alliance, marking a whopping 577 percent jump from January’s figures, per the news outlet.
Just a few months after that funding boost, the Florida Highway Patrol dropped another bombshell, announcing that troopers had collared 6,200 illegal migrants over the past year through their ICE collaborations, according to Breitbart News.
Governor DeSantis has always been a straight shooter, and he was among the earliest governors to vow support for President Trump’s immigration agenda as Trump geared up for his return to the White House, per the outlet.
This latest tally from the FHP underscores that DeSantis delivers on his promises.
When he says he’ll back Trump in cracking down on illegals, he means it, and the arrests are the evidence.
In a time when weak-kneed politicians let chaos reign, Florida’s bold moves are a beacon for patriots everywhere.
DeSantis and his team are proving that with grit and resolve, America can reclaim itself from the grips of unchecked illegal immigration.
