Trump Administration Declares Major Immigration Enforcement Milestone With Zero Illegal Alien Releases
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

US officials confirm zero illegal alien releases into the country for 13 straight months.

In a resounding triumph for border security and the rule of law, the Trump administration has achieved what many once thought impossible. President Trump’s administration has revealed that for 13 consecutive months, zero illegal aliens have been released into the United States. This milestone, confirmed by official data from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), underscores Trump’s unwavering commitment to ending the open-border chaos of the previous administration and restoring sovereignty to the American homeland. On June 19, 2026, DHS and CBP announced the extraordinary record: For the 13th straight month, U.S. Border Patrol released zero illegal aliens into the interior of the country.

Every individual apprehended at the southwest border has been processed according to the full extent of the law-meaning detention, removal, or swift deportation rather than the catch-and-release nightmare that defined the Biden years. President Trump hailed the achievement as a direct result of his tough, America First policies. “For the past 13 months, zero illegal aliens have been admitted into the United States. Zero,” the President stated. “We are removing murderers, gang members, drug dealers, and dangerous criminals by the thousands. We have the strongest, most secure border in the history of our country,” Trump added.
