Breitbart: TRUMP EFFECT: Migrant Encounters at Southern Border Hit Lowest-Ever Mark, Down 94 Percent from Last February
February saw a record low in illegal migrant apprehensions at the U.S.-Mexico border, with only 8,326 arrests, a 94% decrease from the previous year. This drop is attributed to the Trump administration's border security measures and a new trend of reverse migration among disappointed migrants.
The reduction in crossings has led to the closure of several migrant shelters and the deployment of additional military resources to the border. The significant decline in encounters marks the lowest monthly total since records began in 2000.

The Western Journal: This One Pro-Life Claim May Actually Be Keeping Abortion Legal
Despite the overturning of Roe v. Wade, abortion remains prevalent in conservative states due to loopholes in pro-life laws that exempt women from prosecution. Many women are self-inducing abortions or traveling to states where abortion is legal, undermining the intended restrictions.
Pro-life organizations often oppose measures to hold women accountable for abortions, prioritizing support over legal penalties. This stance raises questions about the effectiveness of current pro-life strategies and the moral implications of allowing legal immunity for women who choose to abort.
