Fears of a surge in illegal immigrant crossings before President-elect Donald Trump takes office appeared unfounded.
According to a CBP official, the officers were simply performing a regular exercise. However, the news outlet, which focuses primarily on the southern border, reported that CBP officers marching on city streets is something that has only been seen during Trump's first presidency.
President Donald Trump made several executive orders that affect the border and Mexico. Here is what to know about what is happening on the border.
About 200 migrants who had their CBP One immigration appointments canceled when President Trump was sworn into office are refusing to leave the San Ysidro border checkpoint until they are seen.
Illegal crossings at the southern border were lower in December 2024 than in December 2020, Border Patrol data showed.
The flurry of attempted illegal crossing along the U.S.-Mexico border comes just 72 hours before Trump's inauguration. Border Patrol agents dissuaded and easily rounded the few migrants to face criminal charges of illegally entering the U.S.
Noem vowed Friday to immediately halt the controversial mobile app that lets migrants register to enter the US.
DHS could request up to 10,000 troops to help with efforts along the U.S.-Mexico border, according to an internal Border Patrol memo obtained by ABC News.
Border officials say the attack bolsters President Donald Trump’s claims that the U.S.-Mexico border is more lawless than official statistics indicate.
