New border wall construction begins in Arizona

nypost.com

Kristi Noem announced the start of construction on a new seven-mile section of the border wall in Arizona. This follows a report that illegal crossings have dropped by 95% under the Trump administration. Noem highlighted the significant decrease in daily encounters, with fewer than 200 reported recently. She attributed this decline to stricter enforcement policies and the resumption of border wall construction. Since January, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has arrested over 32,000 individuals, nearly matching the total arrests made under the Biden administration in 2024. Noem shared examples of smuggling methods used at the border.
