EXCLUSIVE: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrests of illegal immigrants have soared under the Trump administration compared to the same period last year under the Biden administration, with some metrics doubling or even tripling.
According to Department of Homeland Security data, obtained by Fox News Digital, there were 11,791 interior ICE arrests from Jan 20 to Feb 8., compared to 4,969 during the same period in 2024. That’s a 137% increase.
Arrests of aliens with criminal histories have soared by nearly 100% from 4,526 in the same period in 2024 to 8,993 under Trump this year.
Arrests of fugitive aliens at-large, meanwhile, have gone up from 2,164 to 5,538 -- a 156% increase. Arrests of criminal aliens in local jails have gone up 59%.
Arrests of suspected gang members, including those belonging to the bloodthirsty Tren de Aragua, went from 210 in that period in 2024 to 430 under Trump, a 105% increase.

All illegal aliens are criminal aliens; they broke the laws by coming here without taking the proper steps in the first place.
The people in Martha’s Vineyard are screaming “Bring them here!” Well, maybe not.
Wanna see a game changer? Arrest felons running sanctuary cities and sanctuary states. I want to see US Marshals roll up in Sacramento and arrest Governor Gavin Newsom.
All illegal aliens are criminal aliens!
They broke the laws by coming here without taking the proper steps in the first place.
