The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) touted the Trump Administration’s “historic year” in a news release on Friday, celebrating more than 2.5 million deportations and a 93% year-over-year reduction in illegal border crossings.

November also marked the seventh month in a row with zero illegals being released into the country.

On average, 245 illegals are apprehended at the border, down from more than 5,000 per day under Joe Biden.

“In less than a year, President Trump has delivered some of the most historic and consequential achievements in presidential history—and this Administration is just getting started,” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said.

“Under President Trump’s leadership, we are making America safe again and putting the American people first. In record-time we have secured the border, taken the fight to cartels, and arrested thousands upon thousands of criminal illegal aliens.”

Noem continued, “Though 2025 was historic, we won’t rest until the job is done.”

“In President Trump’s first year back in office, more than 2.5 million illegal aliens have left the U.S. because of the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration, including an estimated 1.9 million self-deportations and more than 622,000 deportations,” according to the DHS release.

This is a roughly 400,000 increase in deportations since October 20.

The Gateway Pundit reported in October that DHS had deported over 515,000 illegals, and 1.6 million had self-deported by October.

Additionally, Fentanyl trafficking has been cut in half compared to the same period last year under Biden.

"The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) alone has seized enough cocaine to kill more than 177 million Americans," the department said.

"DHS is just getting started under President Donald Trump and Secretary Noem. The best is yet to come," the press release concludes.
