Trump made immigration a key part of his campaign in 2024. Now he’s working to deliver on his promises.
And President Trump revealed news from the southern border that will completely shock you.
America’s southern border is finally breathing easy, and it’s all thanks to President Trump’s iron-fisted approach to the migrant crisis that plagued the nation for far too long. In a Truth Social post on Saturday, Trump laid it out plain and simple: “0 illegal aliens released into the U.S. in the last 6 months.”
The White House didn’t hold back either, firing off a no-nonsense message on Facebook:
“All we needed was a new president.” Spot on. Under Biden’s weak-kneed leadership, the border turned into a revolving door for millions of illegals, draining resources and spiking crime in towns from Texas to California. But Trump? He’s delivering the tough love this country demanded, slamming the gates shut and sending a clear message: America comes first.
Just look at the numbers pouring in from the Department of Homeland Security. Their preliminary October report paints a picture of total dominance—record-low encounters at the border, ironclad control in every sector, and the sixth month running with zero releases by Border Patrol.
We’re talking about would-be crossers getting turned away left and right, a 29% plunge from the already pitiful 43,010 in 2012. And compared to the disaster of October 2024? A whopping 79% nosedive. These aren’t just stats; they’re proof that real leadership turns the tide.
Trump’s team isn’t messing around with half-measures. They’ve launched a full-throttle mass deportation drive that’s shaking up the shadows where illegals have been hiding for years.
It’s not just about rounding folks up—though ICE, Border Patrol, and the National Guard are hitting the streets hard in cities and small towns nationwide. No, this operation smartly encourages self-deportation too, giving those who know they’re here illegally a one-way ticket home before the cuffs come out.
Picture it: National Guard troops patrolling urban hotspots, ICE agents knocking on doors in quiet suburbs, all while the word spreads that the free ride is over.
Families across the heartland are cheering as their neighborhoods reclaim that sense of peace they lost under the last crew. Trump’s strategy is surgical and relentless, targeting the networks that funneled chaos America’s way for political points.
Of course, this victory lap hits even harder when you stack it against the Biden-Harris mess. A scorching October 2024 report from House Republicans on the Homeland Security Committee exposed the ugly truth: the old administration unleashed 1.4 million inadmissible aliens into the country through shady parole schemes aimed at folks from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and beyond.
Insufficient vetting? That’s putting it mildly—these were high-risk entries with zero regard for who might slip through the cracks.
Those parole programs were a slap in the face to every law-abiding American taxpayer footing the bill for hotels, schools, and hospitals overrun by the influx. Republicans didn’t mince words in their takedown, calling out the deliberate blindness that let cartels and criminals waltz in alongside the desperate.
Now, under Trump, the cleanup is in full swing. Just this Friday, DHS dropped a bombshell: 268,000 Venezuelans are losing their so-called Temporary Protected Status from the Biden days. Poof—gone. This isn’t cruelty; it’s common sense. TPS was never meant to be a permanent loophole for mass migration; it was a band-aid twisted into a welcome mat.
Those 268,000 now face the music: pack up and head back, or brace for enforcement. It’s a direct gut-punch to the open-borders lobby that’s spent years whining about “humanity” while ignoring the human cost to American workers displaced from jobs and victims of imported gangs.
Trump’s DHS is moving fast, ensuring that protections abused for political gain don’t linger one more day.
This TPS rollback is just the opening salvo in a wave of revocations set to hit other nationalities hard. Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans—they’re all on notice. The era of endless amnesty extensions is dead and buried, replaced by a system that honors the rule of law and puts U.S. sovereignty front and center.
Think about the ripple effects. With encounters cratering and releases at zero, resources once wasted on processing illegals are freeing up for real priorities: upgrading Border Patrol tech, bolstering wall construction, and cracking down on fentanyl smugglers.
Critics on the left will screech about “xenophobia,” but let’s call it what it is: patriotism in action. For too long, elite coastal types lectured flyover country about sharing the burden of their failed experiments. Trump flipped the script, proving that a strong border isn’t optional—it’s essential for the American Dream to thrive.
