In a dramatic announcement that has reverberated throughout Washington and beyond, President Donald Trump took to his Truth Social platform to declare that “The Invasion of our Country is OVER.”

In his first full month in office, Trump highlighted a dramatic reduction in illegal border crossings,

citing figures from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) that showed only 8,326 apprehensions of illegal immigrants at the southern border—a historic low compared to previous administrations.

This bold proclamation, according to Trump, is evidence that his aggressive border security measures are yielding remarkable results.

A Historic Shift in Border SecurityPresident Trump’s message was delivered with clarity and urgency. “There were only 8,326 apprehensions by Border Patrol at the U.S.-Mexico border, and every single one of them was either immediately ejected from our Nation or, when necessary, prosecuted

for crimes against the United States,” he wrote on Truth Social.

This figure, he claimed, is in stark contrast to the soaring numbers recorded during the previous administration. At the height of the Biden administration, CBP reported as many as 301,981 encounters in a single month in December 2023—a figure that Trump said has now plummeted by 96% under his policies.
