Since Donald Trump took office in January of this year, more than 515,000 illegal immigrants have been deported from the United States, Fox News reported, citing Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Trisha McLaughlin.
According to him, by the end of the first year of Trump's presidency (until January 20, 2026), the number of deportees, according to forecasts, will reach a record 600,000. McLaughlin explained that in total, more than 2 million migrants have left the United States since the beginning of the year, of which approximately 1.6 million left voluntarily.
Trump has repeatedly defended a stricter immigration policy. He announced his intention to carry out the largest deportation operation against illegal immigrants in American history.
