Activists searching for missing persons in Mexico have uncovered a killing field and incineration site near the Texas border that the Gulf Cartel has resumed using to execute and dispose of victims.

The U.S. Department of Defense has awarded a $232 million contract to establish a 5,000-bed detention facility at Fort Bliss Army Base in El Paso, Texas, to support Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportation operations. The facility, set to be the largest of its kind in the country, directly aligns with President Donald Trump’s Jan. 29 executive order declaring an invasion at the southern border.
Tom Homan, President Trump’s top immigration advisor and border czar, said Sunday the U.S.-Mexico border is now the “most secure in the history of this nation.” Appearing on CNN’s State of the Union, Homan credited strict enforcement of immigration law and the administration’s refusal to tolerate sanctuary policies that obstruct federal efforts.
Biden-era climate czar and Obama's Secretary of State, John Kerry, admitted that President Donald Trump was "right" about the need for border security.
The Trump administration is ramping up its crackdown on sanctuary cities, with a direct promise from Border Czar Tom Homan to triple enforcement efforts and bring federal immigration law directly to areas defying cooperation.

Governor Katie Hobbs signed a $17.6 billion bipartisan budget Friday, narrowly avoiding a government shutdown and marking another year of steady spending increases under her administration. The new fiscal package includes funding increases for K-12 education, Medicaid, border security, and public safety—features that align closely with Hobbs’ original proposal but reflect bipartisan compromises with a Republican-led legislature.
President Donald Trump’s return to border enforcement has led to a historic drop in illegal immigration, reversing the crisis that peaked under Joe Biden’s administration. Federal data shows a 90% reduction in illegal alien “got-aways” in June compared to the same month last year. These are individuals who evade U.S. Border Patrol entirely—many with criminal histories.
