DHS says 600,000 migrants turned around in Mexico after Trump took over
 

By Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Thursday, May 8, 2025

As many as 600,000 migrants who had been heading for the U.S. turned around when they realized President Trump had closed the border, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem told senators on Thursday, citing information from Mexican officials.

Ms. Noem said the turnbacks were a yardstick for Mr. Trump’s success at the border, and came with praise from Latin American leaders who say they can sense the difference in the flows of people.

She was testifying to the Senate Appropriations Committee, where she pleaded for more money to keep things going, saying Mr. Trump has bigger plans yet for firming up U.S. borders.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
