After Trump took the oath of office in Washington on January 20, detention began last Monday, January 20, and have grown day by day with weekends numbers increasing.
In some cases, from less than 300 per day on some days last week to roughly 1, 000 on Sunday only, the number of refugees detained by ICE officers in cities across the nation doubled, even tripled.

Officers did arrest roughly 124, 000 people in a year if ICE operates at this rate each week, but it’s unlikely that Trump will target much more unlawful immigrants given that arrests have recently increased.
At the level of 956 prosecutions Sunday, Trump did buy upwards of 340, 000 people by this time next time.
In fiscal 2024, which began in October 2023 and ended in September 2024, ICE took 113, 431 unlawful immigrants into captivity, down from 170, 590 citizens in 2023.
During Trump’s second term in office, he fluctuated between 103, 000 and 159, 000 arrests per month.

As required by Congress, ICE has the authority to detain someone who is entering the country illegally. Additionally, it prioritizes detaining refugees with criminal histories.
When ICE enters a home or office and discovers other people who are illegally residing in the country after overstaying a card or crossing the border without authority,” credit” arrests are obvious and others will be taken into custody.
Arrests are generally made one by one, which means that ICE officers may search for a specific person and arrive at work, home, or meeting them in public. When a big employer fails to conduct an audit of its employees, disaster may strike.
The Republican National Committee and Trump promised as part of its 2024 plan to carry out the “largest-ever” imprisonment activity in U. S. story if elected, and that has remained the new government’s goal.
As a member, Trump railed against “migrant crime”, or acts committed by unlawful immigrants who came over the southern border without authorization. An immigration laws named for Laken Riley, a medical student who was fatally murdered by a Cuban immigrant who entered the country illegally was the first piece of legislation Congress passed for him.
