Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin discusses a Border Patrol raid at a Home Depot in Sacramento on ‘America’s Newsroom.’

"All Quiet on the Western Front" is the title of Erich Maria Remarque’s moving World War I novel. As of July 2025, it’s all quiet on the U.S. southern border. How quiet? 

In June, the Border Patrol encountered just over 6,000 inadmissible aliens at ports of entry. Under President Joe Biden, they sometimes saw twice that many in a single day. The total number of inadmissible aliens encountered in June, at both our northern and southern borders, at or between ports of entry, was 25,243 – the lowest monthly total in U.S. history. 

And of all those encountered in June, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released zero - for the second month in a row. In May, DHS also released not a single alien they stopped trying to enter the United States illegally. In May 2024, in contrast, they released at least 62,000 – not counting more than 30,000 inadmissible aliens they let in every month using immigration parole, and thousands more "gotaways" who snuck in without being stopped or identified.
