Border Czar Tom Homan Says Only Nine Illegal Migrants Released Into the U.S. Under Trump, 99.99% drop from same period under Biden

  • Tom Homan, former border czar under President Trump, stated the Trump administration released only nine illegal migrants in its first 70 days, contrasting this with the Biden administration's releases.
  • This difference follows Biden's executive actions within his first 100 days, which included halting the border wall, removing Title 42 and Remain in Mexico policies, and reinstating catch-and-release, leading to increased border encounters.
  • Homan explained that of the nine releases under Trump, four were material witnesses needed for criminal trials, four had extreme medical conditions, and one was released on humanitarian grounds.
  • Data shows under Biden about 11 million border encounters occurred in four years, with daily peaks up to 15,000 and significant fentanyl seizures, while March 2025 saw historically low border apprehensions and a 95-99.99% drop in illegal crossings.
  • The statements imply a marked change in border management approaches and encounter rates, but varying contexts and policy impacts suggest border security assessments remain complex and evolving.
