Trump Claims Zero Illegal Migrants Entered US in Past Eight Months
Customs and Border Protection reported a 93% decrease in illegal crossings along the southwest border, supporting Trump’s claim of zero illegal entries in eight months.
- On Thursday at his first Cabinet meeting of 2026, President Donald Trump said no illegal migrants entered the U.S. in the last eight months in Washington, D.C.
- According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, southwest border crossings dropped 93% this month versus last year, with zero releases into the interior in June 2025.
- Under Homan's watch, Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced a shift to targeted operations and said, 'We got a lot of them,' emphasizing enforcement efforts, according to NBC News.
- The administration framed the claim by citing CBP figures and operations changes, with The White House highlighting enforcement gains and a focus on deportations under Tom Homan.
- The assertion's scope contrasts with narrower official measures, as the last eight months' zero claim differs from zero releases into the interior in June 2025 and the CBP percentage drop this month.
