ICE is taking a bow for continuing to nab people who are not supposed to be here. For the third month in a row, ICE has set a record for arrests, and this seems to have been done quietly, respectfully, but clearly effectively. They published an almost celebratory press release:
The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released the following statement announcing that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested nearly 51,000 illegal aliens in August 2026, surpassing July’s total for the new record of highest number of illegal aliens arrested in a single month.
In August, ICE arrested 50,925 illegal aliens across the country. This surpasses the previous record held by July 2026, which saw 50,208 illegal aliens arrested, and marks the second consecutive month with over 50,000 illegal alien arrests. July surpassed June, which saw 43,900 number of illegal aliens arrested.
“The hard-working men and women of DHS continue to break records as they defend the homeland and protect the American people,” said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “For the third straight month, ICE set a new record for the highest number of illegal aliens arrested in a single month, nearly 51,000. This is promises made and promises kept in action. Under President Trump’s leadership, ICE is working around the clock every day to arrest and deport illegal aliens from American communities. If you are in the country illegally, LEAVE NOW. If not, we will find you, arrest you, and deport you.”
Since President Trump returned to office, more than 3 million illegal aliens have left the United States.
Being in detention is a choice. The United States is offering illegal aliens $3,000 and a free flight to self-deport now with the CBP Home App. We encourage every person here illegally to take advantage of this offer. If not, you will be arrested and deported without a chance to return.
While the legacy media seemingly prefers to report bad news, we are committed to reporting the news.
