Trump Deploys 1,500 Troops to Border, Plans Up to 10,000 in Immigration Crackdown
Jan 23, 2025, 11:00 AM
President Donald Trump has ordered the deployment of thousands of additional active-duty U.S. military troops to the southern border with Mexico following his signing of an executive order on immigration on Wednesday. The Pentagon will initially send 1,500 troops—including Marines, Army helicopter crews, and intelligence analysts—to support Border Patrol agents in securing the border and enforcing immigration policies. The administration is considering deploying up to 10,000 troops and using U.S. military bases to hold migrants awaiting deportation. This move comes after Trump declared a national emergency at the southern border, referring to the situation as an "invasion." In the ongoing crackdown, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced that it has detained 308 illegal aliens.
