THE TRUMP EFFECT: Border Crossings at Historic Lows, Fewer Encounters Last Month Than One Day Under Biden

posted by Hannity Staff - 7.02.25

According to multiple reports, just 6,070 encounters with illegal aliens were logged at the U.S. border in the month of June — lower than encounters logged in most single days under Joe Biden.

June’s figures indicate a 93.1 percent drop in border encounters since 2024 and a 94 percent and 97 percent increase when compared to 2023 and 2022.

Border Czar Tom Homan shared the news on X.

“President Trump has created the most secure border in the history of the nation and the data proves it,” Homan said. “We have never seen numbers this low. Never. God bless the men and women of the US Border Patrol and God bless the men and women of ICE. The interior arrests and consequences help to drive down illegal immigration. The TRUMP EFFECT keeps America winning.”

Homan also confirmed that of the 6,070 encounters, “ZERO” were released into the country.

The White House dropped a press release marking the historic, low number.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • Nationwide illegal immigrant encounters over the month were the lowest on record.
  • For the second straight month, no illegal immigrants were released into the country’s interior.
  • On June 28, Border Patrol hit a single-day record low number of illegal immigrant encounters at the southern border (just 137).
  • The number of “gotaways” — illegal immigrants who escaped into the country undetected — was 90% lower compared to the same month last year.
  • This fiscal year is on track to see the fewest illegal immigrant encounters in five decades.
