President Donald Trump deported 37,660 people in his first month in office, according to a new report from Reuters .

This falls below the monthly average of roughly 57,000 removals and returns during the final full year of the Biden administration.

This is in contrast to the far greater number of job cuts the administration has achieved.

Some of those cuts could be reversed, but around 200,000 workers have been potentially impacted by the cuts.

The Trump administration will look to ramp up deportation efforts, potentially introducing raids of churches and schools, as teased by officials earlier this month . DOGE will keep looking to cut what it deems to be waste and fraud in the federal government, with its sights set on the Department of Defense and Department of Education .
