For 5 months, Border Patrol has allowed zero parole releases into the nation under President Trump.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced that zero releases were made into the interior of the nation for five straight months, as of the end of September. Since President Donald Trump’s second term began, nationwide crossings have dropped 93 percent.
“The numbers tell the story – enforcement works,” said CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott. “We are delivering the most secure border in American history, thanks to the President’s leadership. Border crossings remain historically low, and those who do cross are being apprehended, detained, prosecuted, and swiftly removed.”
The agency also reported the prevention of foreign terrorist organizations’ attempts to traffic narcotics into the U.S, stating, “In September, CBP seized 644 pounds of fentanyl. Cocaine seizures increased 39% and heroin seizures increased 115% from August to September.“
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For Commissioner Scott to be prudent in his management of CBP and Border Patrol.
- For the safety of border security officers as they seek to prevent the trafficking of humans and illegal substances.
