7,400 in 9 Days? ICE Just Broke Records With This Unbelievable Sweep!

In a sweeping enforcement effort, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has arrested over 7,400 individuals across multiple states within just nine days, signaling an aggressive approach under the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration.

ICE agents have conducted operations targeting homes, workplaces, and other locations, with deportations surging in response. Additionally, the administration has announced plans to send the most dangerous offenders to Guantánamo Bay, a move that has sparked widespread debate.

According to ICE, as of January 31, the agency has taken 7,412 individuals into custody, citing their illegal status in the country. Nearly 6,000 detainers have also been issued, marking one of the largest enforcement actions in recent years.

ICE has been openly sharing daily arrest figures on X, along with detailed reports of raids in sanctuary cities such as New York City, Chicago, and Boston. Many of those detained have been accused of serious crimes, including sex offenses against minors, rape, firearms violations, and drug-related charges. The agency has also reported arrests of violent gang members from groups such as Tren de Aragua and MS-13.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who oversees ICE, defended the operations, stating that the agency is focusing on the “worst of the worst.” Border Czar Tom Homan echoed this sentiment, insisting that the primary targets are violent offenders. “The streets are now safer as a result,” Noem asserted.

The coordinated raids have been conducted in partnership with other federal agencies, including the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

Noem personally participated in an ICE operation in New York City, where officers apprehended Anderson Zambrano-Pacheco, a 26-year-old alleged leader of the Tren de Aragua gang. Zambrano-Pacheco gained notoriety after a viral video captured armed men breaking into an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado, last summer.

Meanwhile, ICE agents in Massachusetts arrested Luis Adolfo Guerra Perez, a 19-year-old Guatemalan national and MS-13 gang member. Guerra Perez, previously ordered for deportation, was facing state firearm charges before being released by a Boston court.

ICE has released details on more than 60 cases, while the White House has disclosed information on at least 20 additional cases. However, for the majority of the 7,412 arrested, specific criminal histories remain undisclosed.

In a significant policy shift, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth confirmed that some of the most dangerous detainees will be temporarily housed at Guantánamo Bay. He also suggested that military action against cartels remains a possibility.

“All options will be on the table,” Hegseth declared in an interview on “Fox & Friends.”

The announcement followed a statement from President Donald Trump, who revealed that he had directed the Pentagon to prepare a detention facility at Guantánamo Bay capable of holding 30,000 “criminal illegal aliens.”

“Today I’m also signing an executive order to instruct the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security to begin preparing the 30,000-person migrant facility at Guantánamo Bay,” Trump said. “Most people don’t even know about it.”

However, it was later clarified that Trump had signed a presidential memorandum rather than an executive order.

The response to the enforcement surge has been mixed. Many local residents in affected areas have expressed relief, viewing the actions as a necessary step toward public safety.

Ramses Frías, a community activist in Queens, emphasized the positive reception among locals. “Many residents, from immigrants to citizens, welcome ICE coming in and taking the criminals out of these communities,” he told Fox News Digital. “They welcome law and order and want safe streets.”

On the other hand, opposition remains strong. Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson reiterated his stance on keeping the city a sanctuary for undocumented immigrants, as did Boston Mayor Michelle Wu. Their reaffirmation of sanctuary policies underscores the ongoing national debate over immigration enforcement.

With thousands of arrests and significant policy changes unfolding, the crackdown on illegal immigration is shaping up to be one of the most contentious issues of the Trump administration’s second term.
