<p>Customs and Border Protection (CBP) did not release a single illegal alien into the United States during the month of May, a new report from the federal immigration enforcement agency revealed.</p>
<p>The figure lies in sharp contrast to May of 2024 under the Biden administration, when approximately 62,000 illegal aliens were released into the United States.</p>
<p>CBP agents encountered just 8,725 illegal aliens attempting to enter the United States between ports of entry last month. The number marks a whopping 93 percent decline since last May, when immigration enforcement authorities encountered more than 117,000 illegal aliens between ports of entry on the southwestern border.</p>
<p>Acting Commissioner of CBP Pete Flores <a href="https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/national-media-release/cbp-releases-may-2025-monthly-update">touted the success</a>, highlighting the work of the Trump administration.</p>
<p>“Under the leadership of this administration, CBP has received historic support resulting in another 93% decrease in illegal crossings along the southwest border this month when compared with last year,” Flores said. “Border numbers continue to trend at historic lows, reinforcing the sustained success of our enforcement efforts in securing the homeland and protecting American communities.”</p>
<p>“This administration has seen the fastest improvement in American border security of all time,” Customs and Border Protection posted on X.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<p>CBP agents also seized hundreds of pounds of deadly drugs, including 718 pounds of fentanyl. The law enforcement agency noted that cocaine seizures jumped by 19 percent from April to May, while heroin seizures surged 191 percent during the same period of time.</p>
<p>Border numbers began to plummet almost immediately upon President Donald Trump taking office at the start of this year. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/border-crossings-plunge-90-to-historic-lows-under-trump-crackdown">Data</a> from the first weeks in February revealed that border crossings had already dropped 90 percent in the first few weeks of the new presidency.</p>
<p>“​We haven’t had numbers this low since the 1960s,” Mark Krikorian, the executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, remarked at the time.</p>
<p>The decrease in illegal border crossings proved to be even more drastic than the early data suggested, with Vice President JD Vance <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/vance-does-victory-lap-at-border-all-it-took-was-a-new-president">celebrating</a> a 98 percent reduction in illegal immigration during a visit to the border in early March.</p>
