McALLEN, Texas (Border Report) — A new online dashboard gives real-time data on arrests and removals of immigrants by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

According to the data, since President Donald Trump took office in January, through July 29, arrests total 138,068. Since Sept. 1, 2023, there have been 291,668 total arrests.
Monthly arrests peaked in June, at 30,390, and dropped to 23,617 in July, which is the second-most monthly arrests so far during Trump’s second term.
Most of the arrests since January have occurred in Texas — 28,243, according to the data.
The Southwest border states of California and Arizona also have had some of the most arrests — 10,123, and 3,520 respectively. Other states among the top 10 in arrests of immigrants include:
