The massive flood of illegal aliens across the southern border has become a trickle, disappearing almost as swiftly as it first emerged four years ago.
The Daily Signal’s Fred Lucas reported on Tuesday that, according to the White House and U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the number of border apprehensions in January fell to the lowest point in five years.
February looks to have even lower numbers than January. According to the New York Post, “about 359 illegal migrants per day have been caught across the entire southern border — down more than 90% from February 2024.”
“Total illegal border crossings for fiscal year 2025 are on track to fall to the lowest rates since 1968,” Lucas reported. On Monday, President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, noted how remarkably quiet the border has suddenly become.
