Trump’s DHS Celebrates ‘Record-Breaking’ 2.5 Million Illegal Aliens Leaving U.S.
Breitbart ^ | 11 Dec 2025 | John Binder

President Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is celebrating a “record-breaking achievement” in immigration enforcement, touting that more than 2.5 million illegal aliens have left the United States since the president took office in late January.

This week, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem announced that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents had successfully deported more than 605,000 illegal aliens from the U.S. since January 20 — noting the majority are illegal aliens with pending criminal charges or criminal convictions.

In addition, Noem said almost two million illegal aliens have now self-deported from the U.S. during the same period, as she again encouraged millions more illegal aliens to do so using the agency’s “CBP Home” mobile app to secure a free flight and $1,000 stipend.

“The Trump Administration is shattering historic records with more than 2.5 million illegal aliens leaving the U.S. DHS has deported more than 605,000 illegal aliens and another 1.9 million have self-deported,” DHS’s Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.

DHS officials similarly said that the agency had arrested close to 600,000 illegal aliens since Trump took office for his second term.

“Illegal aliens are hearing our message to leave now,” McLaughlin said. “They know if they don’t, we will find them, we will arrest them, and they will never return.”

The Trump administration’s fierce immigration crackdown has been, likely most significantly, a boon for Americans in the housing market.

For six consecutive months, for instance, DHS has not released a single illegal alien into the U.S. from the southern border — a statistic that is being felt by Americans looking to buy homes and see their rents reduced after years of sky-high prices.

Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Scott Turner noted recently that, coinciding with the massive drop in illegal immigration, there have been four consecutive months of rent decreases.

In September, economists in Denmark published research that found mass immigration hugely drives up rents and home prices for the local population.

“… a one percentage point increase in the local immigration influx over a five-year horizon relative to the local population in the base year 1995 leads to an average increase of approximately 6 percent and 11 percent in private rental prices and house prices at the municipal level, respectively, during the same period,” researchers found.

Last year, Center for Immigration Studies researcher Steven Camarota revealed a similar statistic to Congress, stating that “a 5-percentage-point increase in the recent immigrant share of a metro area’s population is associated with a 12-percent increase in the average U.S.-born household’s rent, relative to their income.”

Not bad for 10 months.

Remember....they were all counted in the census and gave the Dems approx. 20 extra seats.

By end of his term, he could have 9-12 million out if the mid-terms don’t screw him.

He’s have to nearly double that each year over year for the next 3 years to make a real dent.

Self-deportation is a viable strategy for the remainder of the recent surge.

And just think of the vast number of rental units now on the market that were not available just a few months ago. Not to mention the great number of employment opportunities that have opened up for the native-born and naturalized citizens of the United States, at a higher wage rate than previously offered.

With the recent surge of capital back into the US, there are even more entrepreneurial start-ups that beckon the more spirited among us, with venture capital flooding the market.

Happy days are here again. “Laissez les bons temps rouler.”

“Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said more than 9,500 commercial truckers have been taken out of service for failing English-language proficiency checks, a cumulative enforcement tally he said highlights an ongoing effort to keep unqualified operators from posing dangers on the nation’s roads.”

I’m going to respectfully disagree. Two and a half million is a decent dent. No, it doesn’t undo the decades of the invasion, but it’s a lot better than what was going on 10 months ago. Just undoing the damage done under Brandon would be quite the accomplishment.
