Remember back when illegal migrants were pouring across the border faster than free beer at a frat party, and the official government response was basically “don’t be racist”? Yeah, those were the golden days of leadership under Joe Biden, when “catch and release” meant literally releasing tens of thousands of illegal migrants into the country like pigeons at a wedding. Well, good news: that era might finally be over.
According to brand-new Border Patrol data, not a single illegal migrant was released into the United States last month. That’s not a typo. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Compare that to the same month under Biden’s watch last year, when over 62,000 illegal border crossers were released into our neighborhoods like it was an Oprah giveaway. You get an ankle monitor! You get a court date five years from now!
U.S. Border Patrol Chief Michael Banks broke the news on Fox News and, for once, it felt like a government official was actually proud to do his job. “It’s phenomenal,” he said. And it is. Not just because it’s a big win for national security—but because it shows what happens when people in charge actually care about protecting the country more than they care about hashtags and re-election polls.
Banks credited President Trump and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem for this turnaround, and you know what? He’s not wrong. Trump didn’t build a wall out of paper straws and empathy. He built policies that worked. And now that he’s back behind the wheel, alongside Noem, Border Patrol is doing what it was always supposed to do: enforce the law.
“Let us enforce the laws, and we’ll get the job done,” Banks said. What a concept! Enforcing laws. Who would’ve thought?
This isn’t just about numbers. It’s about priorities. It’s about sending a message that we’re a sovereign nation with borders—not a free-for-all parking lot where anyone can roll through with a sob story and a cell phone. And it’s about letting the men and women on the front lines actually do their jobs without being handcuffed by bureaucrats who treat national security like it’s a sensitive HR issue.
Just two days ago, Border Patrol apprehended 141 illegal entries. Not one was released. That’s what progress looks like. Not some abstract metric cooked up by think tanks in D.C.—but real, boots-on-the-ground enforcement.
And Chief Banks had one more thing to say: “We’re just getting started. We’re not even close to being done.” Good. Because we’re not interested in half-measures or temporary fixes. We want our country back. One secure mile at a time.
