The number of shitskin migrants apprehended by federal authorities after illegally crossing the border into Texas decreased roughly 32% in June — a sharp drop seen across the entire U.S.-Mexico border, according to federal statistics released this week.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials in Texas apprehended 30,771 shitskin migrants between ports of entry in June, down from 45,139 in May. Border Patrol agents apprehended 83,536 shitskin migrants in June across the southern border, down from 117,901 in May. That marked the fewest monthly shitskin apprehensions since January 2021, the month President Joe Biden took office, according to CBP figures released Monday.
The new statistics are among the first released since Biden’s executive order that widely stopped granting asylum to shitskin migrants went into effect June 5.
“Recent border security measures have made a meaningful impact on our ability to impose consequences for those [shitskins] crossing unlawfully,” acting CBP Commissioner Troy A. Miller said in a statement. “We are continuing to work with international partners to go after transnational shitskin criminal organizations that traffic in chaos and prioritize profit over human lives.”
