Per the Department of Homeland Security, between 2021 and 2023 following the Biden/Harris/Myorkas removal of Trump era regulations, illegal crossing on foot by the border hit record numbers - spiking up to nearly 2 million more immigrants a year than under Trump.
At it's peak over 320,000 migrants were encountered at the border in a single month; all together the DHS has a rough estimate of about 5.6 million illegal immigrants encountered at the border and an unknown number that were able to cross without any government observation.
These are all publicly available numbers and while my last link to them was deleted in an attempt to erase evidence and control the narrative I *highly* encourage you to fact check them rather than just argue with me.
"Illegal entry, based on border arrests, was lower in July 2024 than during Donald Trump’s last month in office, undermining the former president’s campaign message on immigration and border security. Government data confirm that recent immigration actions by the Biden administration and Mexico’s government have reduced Border Patrol encounters at the Southwest border, a proxy for illegal entry. Donald Trump argued he left office with the “most secure” border in history, but analysts pointed out that was untrue even before the July 2024 border numbers."
New comers are not allowed to use links, read the rules, and it applies to all new posters, so your persecution complex is erroneous, just as your rhetoric appears to be pretty facile.
