The task forces were established by a Day One Executive Order from Trump and began "full implementation" in September, according to the FBI.

A San Antonio operation made more arrests than a Chicago operation that caught 37 people. Task forces co-led by the FBI and ICE's Homeland Security Investigations will eventually have outposts in all 50 states and already operate in South Texas, Alaska and Indianapolis. A centralized command center will be led by Attorney General Pam Bondi and Homeland Security Kristi Noem with a mandate to combat cartels, international gangs and terror groups.
