U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement removed over 65,000 illegal immigrants from the country in President Trump's first 100 days in office, according to the agency.

ICE arrested 66,463 illegal immigrants and removed 65,682 of them from the U.S., the agency announced on Tuesday. Three-out -of-four arrests were of criminal illegal immigrants.

“The brave men and women of ICE protect our families, friends and neighbors by removing public safety and national security threats from our communities,” ICE acting Director Todd M. Lyons said in a statement.

“During President Trump’s first 100 days, ICE alone has arrested over 65,000 illegal aliens – including 2,288 gang members from Tren de Aragua, MS-13, 18th Street and other gangs. Additionally, 1,329 were accused or convicted of sex offenses, and 498 were accused or convicted of murder.”

Illegal immigrants who were arrested have convictions or charges for 9,639 assaults, 6,398 DWIs or DUIs, and 1,479 weapon offenses.

"Homeland Security Investigations has been zeroing in on worksite enforcement operations to protect American businesses," ICE Deputy Director Madison D. Sheahan said.

"Since Jan. 20, HSI has arrested more than 1,000 illegal workers and proposed over $1 million in fines against businesses that exploit and hire illegal workers. Last week, HSI broke up a human smuggling ring that's allegedly responsible for bringing between 500 and 700 illegal aliens into the U.S. every year – aliens that the U.S. government never vetted."
