The visit occurred as the Trump administration faces continued criticism regarding its immigration policies. The increased role of the military in border security has also been a subject of debate.
Hegseth's trip did not include members of the press. The lack of media access has raised questions about transparency and the administration's approach to immigration enforcement.
