According to a new report, Joe Biden has allowed almost six million criminal illegals to swamp our border and walk into the country since he took office.
Dan Stein, the president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) added that in the last fiscal year alone, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported having 2.8 million encounters with criminal illegals. And that is just the number we know about because they were caught. You can bet that millions more slipped past CBP and got in without being caught.
“It’s pretty straightforward,” Stein said of his group’s estimate. “There are typical projections that are confirmed by Census data of people who just run around—they call them ‘gotaways’—who enter without inspection, then disappear.”
“If you look at the entire period, it’s about 5.5 million since Biden took office,” adding that FAIR projections estimate the cost to taxpayers to be $20 billion.
A huge surge of these criminals came from Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua during the past fiscal year, Stein added.
“U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) disclosed the figures in a recent operational update that brought the total official number of illegal border crossers to around 4.4 million since Biden took office,” the Epoch Times added.
And yet, that hoped-for red wave didn’t happen.
It boggles the mind.
