U.S. Border Patrol is increasingly seen far from the border as Trump ramps up deportation arrests
- U.S. Border Patrol agents are increasingly conducting arrests far from the borders as the Trump administration ramps up interior immigration enforcement in 2025.
- This change comes after the House approved an $8 billion bill aimed at adding 10,000 personnel to ICE, while the agency works to reach a mandated minimum of 3,000 arrests per day established by Stephen Miller.
- Officials like Greg Bovino and Justin De La Torre acknowledge deployment beyond border zones, with agents able to operate within 100 miles from the border and assist ICE nationwide.
- Border arrests dropped to an average of 282 daily in May, compared to peaks over 8,000 in December 2023, while detainee treatment controversies continue to draw public attention.
- The expanded interior enforcement suggests more frequent encounters away from the border, potentially increasing immigration arrests deep inside the U.S. and fueling public debate.
