Noem Says Major Change Made In Nevada

A major win for border security and American sovereignty. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Monday that Nevada has officially been removed from the Trump administration’s sanctuary jurisdiction list, marking a powerful victory for President Trump’s renewed crackdown on illegal immigration.

🚨 Nevada Steps Up as Other States Back Down

Noem praised Governor Joe Lombardo and the Nevada Sheriffs’ & Chiefs’ Association for pledging full cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) — a move that directly strengthens public safety and restores the rule of law.

“When others cower, real leaders step up,” Noem said on X (formerly Twitter). “I applaud Governor Lombardo and the Nevada Sheriffs’ & Chiefs’ Association for working with ICE to protect American citizens from dangerous criminal illegal aliens. Because of their efforts, Nevada has been removed from the sanctuary list. I encourage every leader across our nation to follow their example so that all Americans can live in peace and safety.”

🪖 Lombardo Sends in the National Guard

Governor Lombardo didn’t just talk tough — he acted. In August, he authorized a small contingent of the Nevada National Guard to support DHS in immigration enforcement efforts, helping federal agents detain and deport criminal illegal aliens who had slipped through under failed Democrat-backed sanctuary policies.

That leadership, paired with cooperation from law enforcement across the state, signaled that Nevada stands with President Trump in his mission to secure the border and defend American families.

💥 Trump’s Promise: The Largest Deportation Effort in U.S. History

Under President Trump’s direction, ICE has been given record funding and broader authority to execute what the President has called “the largest deportation program in American history.”

According to recent federal reports:

• 66,000 detainees are currently in ICE custody — an all-time record.
• 278,000 illegal immigrants have been arrested since January alone.
• Combined with Customs and Border Protection (CBP) operations, that number surges to over 520,000 arrests in Trump’s second term.

Each statistic underscores a simple truth: the Trump administration is serious about law and order — and Americans are safer for it.

⚖️ DHS: Most Arrested Migrants Are Criminals

Homeland Security spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin confirmed that 70% of immigrants arrested by ICE have criminal convictions or pending criminal charges within the U.S.

“And that doesn’t even include those wanted for violent crimes abroad, INTERPOL notices, human rights violations, gang activity, or terrorism,” McLaughlin explained. “As we arrest and remove criminal illegal aliens and public safety threats from the U.S., ICE continues expanding detention space while avoiding overcrowding.”

These revelations highlight just how many dangerous individuals have crossed the border — and how critical Trump’s enforcement measures are to keeping American neighborhoods safe.

🇺🇸 A Model for the Nation

Secretary Noem said Nevada’s decision should serve as a blueprint for every state that truly values law enforcement and citizen safety over partisan politics.

“Leaders across the country should follow Governor Lombardo’s example,” Noem urged. “This is how we restore safety, sovereignty, and common sense.”

For millions of Americans, Nevada’s bold stance is proof that President Trump’s policies work — and that when local leaders cooperate with federal immigration efforts, America wins.
