Trump recently said May and June payrolls growth was 150,000 per month.

Forty percent of the nearly 112,000 arrests by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement from Jan. 20 through late June were of convicted criminals. That’s compared with 53% of the nearly 51,000 arrests for same time period in 2024 under the Biden administration.
Fewer than half of ICE arrests under Trump are convicted criminals
The Trump administration's immigration arrests have been catching a smaller share of criminals overall than the Biden administration did.
