5.5 Million Illegal Immigrants Have Been Encountered Since Biden Took Office:

A startling 5.5 million illegal immigrants have been encountered on our borders just since President Biden took office, a report from the Federation for American Immigration Report (FAIR) found.

“Some 2.7 million migrants—those who illegally entered or were otherwise inadmissible at a port of entry—were encountered at our borders in FY 2022, bringing the total under President Biden to a whopping 5.5 million,” FAIR’s report revealed.

The organization estimates in their report that roughly 2.4 million illegal immigrants either entered our country undetected or were released into our country. The figure is estimated to be larger than the populations of Wyoming, Idaho, Nebraska, New Mexico, Hawaii, Alaska, Vermont, Delaware, West Virginia, New Hampshire, Maine, Rhode Island, Montana, North Dakota, or South Dakota — a full 15 states.

FAIR’s report also notes that border patrol agents encountered 98 known or suspected terrorists in fiscal year 2022. The number does not include terrorists who may be embedded within the 1.1 million illegal aliens who evaded law enforcement when entering the country.

The figure marks a drastic increase from recent years. Only 15 known or suspected terrorists were encountered in 2021 and just three were encountered in 2020. In 2019, zero known or suspected terrorists were encountered.

Meanwhile, there were 856 migrant deaths on the southern border, making fiscal year 2022 the deadliest year on record. —>READ MORE HERE

FAIR Analysis: 5.5 Million Illegal Aliens Have Crossed our Borders Since Biden Took Office–How is Secretary Mayorkas Still Employed?

“In typical fashion, the Biden administration attempted to conceal the reality of a historic crisis they created by releasing final FY 2022 border numbers late on a Friday evening, hoping in vain that no one would notice on the eve of consequential midterm elections. After digging through them, we can see why,” said Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).

“Some 2.7 million migrants—those who illegally entered or were otherwise inadmissible at a port of entry—were encountered at our borders in FY 2022, bringing the total under President Biden to a whopping 5.5 million. One thing is clear: These record-breaking numbers are a direct consequence of open-borders policies implemented by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and the person who appointed him, President Joe Biden,” charged Stein. “This deliberate sabotage of our nation’s immigration laws demands that the president remove Mayorkas from his position immediately. Otherwise, the impeachment of his disgraced cabinet member is sure to be one of the first orders of business in the next Congress.”

“Nothing will improve until there is a public servant leading the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) who believes in borders—and secure ones at that. We cannot even begin to reverse this disaster so long as our nation’s immigration policies are in the hands of someone who is bent on compounding it. No matter how late at night this administration releases data, the numbers still speak for themselves. President Biden needs to clean house at DHS, and, if he is not prepared to do it, Congress needs to clean it for him, beginning with the impeachment of Secretary Mayorkas,” Stein concluded.
