Fox News’s Sean Hannity has been around the block. It’s hard to surprise him.
But Sean Hannity was utterly floored and left speechless by an interview with Trump’s Homeland Security Secretary.
110,000 ICE Applications Signal Overwhelming Support for Trump’s Border Crackdown
According to the Department of Homeland Security, over 110,000 Americans have rushed to apply for jobs at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in less than two weeks, proving that real Americans are ready to stand with President Trump in securing our borders and restoring law and order.
This massive surge comes after DHS Secretary Kristi Noem announced the end of ICE’s age cap for officer applications, aiming to expand the agency by 10,000 positions to tackle the illegal immigration crisis head-on. During her appearance on Fox News’ Hannity, Noem revealed the eye-popping numbers when host Sean Hannity pressed for details amid reports of skyrocketing interest.
“In fact, as of today, about 110,000 applications in less than two weeks,” Noem said. She didn’t stop there, highlighting how this outpouring reflects the true heartbeat of the nation, tired of the chaos unleashed by years of weak Democrat policies.
“That’s what I find so encouraging is it’s clear the American people are behind President Trump and these officers. They have their backs, and they want to be a part of what’s happening in this country by making it safe again. So despite what, you know, the fake news says, despite what the liberals and the socialists and the Marxists are parroting every single day out in their communities and to their supporters, it’s just not true.”
Noem’s words cut through the noise, exposing the leftist media’s endless smear campaign against Trump’s America First agenda. Polls confirm what these applications show: Americans trust Republicans far more than Democrats to handle immigration and border security, with consistent majorities favoring the GOP’s tough stance.
A recent survey revealed that 81% of Americans support deporting criminal illegal immigrants, and 76% back a full-scale effort to enforce our laws—numbers that prove the public’s faith in Trump’s leadership to fix the mess left by Biden’s open-border disaster.
This trust materializes in action, as everyday heroes from across the country line up to join ICE and protect our communities from the invasion that’s strained resources and endangered lives.
“The American people are so happy, and they’re excited about the fact that the rule of law is going to apply to everybody and that Americans and citizens who follow the law should be prioritized and that President Trump is doing exactly that,” Noem added.
Her optimism is spot on—these applicants aren’t just numbers; they’re veterans, law enforcement pros, and hardworking folks eager to don the ICE badge and hit the streets. With Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” providing the funding muscle, ICE is now offering sweet deals to attract top talent, including up to $50,000 signing bonuses, student loan forgiveness, and extra pay for those on the front lines.
Multiple polls echo this sentiment, showing Americans prefer Republicans over Democrats on border security by wide margins, especially when it comes to cracking down on illegal entries and prioritizing American safety.
Latinos and other key demographics are shifting too, trusting Republicans more on border security by a 10-point edge, fed up with the crime and economic drain caused by unchecked migration.
“So to have that many applications means that we’re going to hire the best of the best, and individuals who have experience can get qualified for their ICE badge as soon as possible and hit the streets so that they can make sure that these families get to live safely again,” Noem concluded.
This recruitment boom is a direct rebuke to the radical left’s attempts to defund ICE and portray border enforcers as villains—proving that the silent majority is roaring back in support of Trump’s vision.
As deportations ramp up under the Trump administration, families across America can finally breathe easier, knowing that criminals and opportunists won’t get a free pass anymore. The fake news might spin tales of division, but the facts are clear that Americans are uniting behind strong borders, and this applicant flood is just the beginning of making America safe and great again.

Mass deportations are increasing and it doesn’t matter what Mayor Karen Bass or screaming bystanders say.
Illegals should just self-deport.
They’ll get a free $1K.
