Sarah Arnold / Townhall Tipsheet
With just six months into his second term in office, President Donald
Trump delivered the nation's most secure southern border in recent
history, hitting a record low in arrests by Border Patrol in July. The
president campaigned on his promise to secure the United States' border,
and he surely delivered, making America safe again.
On Friday, Border Patrol announced that for the third consecutive month,
zero illegal immigrants were released into the interior of the United
States. In July, agents arrested approximately 4,600 individuals
attempting to cross the Southwest border between ports of entry, a 24
percent decrease from June’s 6,072 arrests and a staggering 92 percent
drop compared to July 2024. Officials in the Del Rio sector praised
these historic lows, crediting President Trump for fulfilling his
commitment to securing the border—something Democrats have consistently
failed to achieve. Read more, see X and video here.
