# “UNHEARD OF”: Illegal Border Crossings Plummet to Another New Record Low

The White House

July was another month of record low illegal crossings at the southern border, with just 4,598 illegal immigrants arrested by Border Patrol — a 24% drop from the previous record low set in June and an average of just 148 illegal crossings every day.

That monthly total is nearly 500 fewer than the average number of DAILY illegal crossings under the Biden Administration (5,110) — and a staggering 97% decrease from July 2022 (181,834), 96% decrease from July 2023 (132,642), and 92% decrease from July 2024 (56,400).

“It’s unheard of for the nearly 2,000-mile-long southern border,” says expert border reporter Bill Melugin.

Meanwhile, the Trump Administration’s deportation operation is quickly ramping up — with nearly 150,000 illegal immigrants arrested since President Donald J. Trump took office, including nearly 50,000 arrests over the past eight weeks.

That’s twice as many as the same period last year as the President Trump follows through with his promise to remove illegal immigrant killers, rapists, gangbangers, and other violent criminals from our streets.

Former immigration judge Andrew Arthur: “The president is doing what he said he was going to do. The president’s doing what an overwhelming majority of the people want him to do, which is taking criminal aliens off of the streets.”
