(Worthy News) – U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced that it has removed more than 65,000 illegal immigrants from the United States during the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second term in office.
The agency reported a total of 66,463 arrests, with 65,682 individuals removed from the country between January 20 and April 29.
ICE officials highlighted that a high number of those arrested posed significant homeland threats. “During President Trump’s first 100 days, ICE alone has arrested over 65,000 illegal aliens – including 2,288 gang members from Tren de Aragua, MS-13, 18th Street and other gangs,” said acting ICE Director Todd M. Lyons. “Additionally, 1,329 were accused or convicted of sex offenses, and 498 were accused or convicted of murder.”
According to ICE, roughly three out of every four arrests involved individuals with criminal records. The agency detailed the charges and convictions associated with the detainees: 9,639 for assault, 6,398 for driving while intoxicated or under the influence, and 1,479 for weapons offenses.
Lyons praised the work of federal immigration officers, saying, “The brave men and women of ICE protect our families, friends and neighbors by removing public safety and national security threats from our communities.”
Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), the investigative arm of ICE, has also stepped up worksite enforcement operations in recent weeks. “Homeland Security Investigations has been zeroing in on worksite enforcement operations to protect American businesses,” said ICE Deputy Director Madison D. Sheahan. “Since Jan. 20, HSI has arrested more than 1,000 illegal workers and proposed over $1 million in fines against businesses that exploit and hire illegal workers.”
Sheahan also revealed that HSI recently dismantled a major human smuggling ring. “Last week, HSI broke up a human smuggling ring that’s allegedly responsible for bringing between 500 and 700 illegal aliens into the U.S. every year – aliens that the U.S. government never vetted,” she said.
The announcement underscores the Trump administration’s continued focus on border enforcement and interior immigration operations, a signature policy area since the beginning of his presidency.
