Instantly Securing the Border, Trump Proved That Joe & Co. Always Could Have Fixed It; Illegal Border Crossings Have Plummeted 90% Since Trump Returned to White House, Border Patrol Chief Says

Instantly securing the border, Trump proved that Joe & Co. always could have fixed it:

Hallelujah, the border is finally working again: Border Patrol chief Michael Banks announced Thursday that illegal border-crossing attempts have dropped 90% since President Trump took office less than three weeks ago.

Which is the final proof that the Biden crew could’ve gotten the same results anytime in the last four years — had they actually wanted to.

Instead, they fed the nation nonstop nonsense about how the border being “under control” even as they manufactured more ways to speed up illegal entries and created new paths to “legalize” border-jumping, at least as far as their official statistics were concerned.

For the last year, including all during the presidential campaign, Democrats insisted it was all Republicans’ fault, for refusing to pass a supposed “bipartisan” bill (that in fact would’ve made the crisis worse).

Blam: Hours after being sworn in, Trump declared a national emergency at the border, ended “catch and release,” reestablished “Remain in Mexico,” ordered construction on the wall to resume and sent 10,000 US troops to the border to help beef up security.

Within a week, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, with the full support of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, started rounding up and shipping out illegal migrants busted for vile crimes.

And Trump’s threats moved Mexico (and Canada) to start taking their role in sealing the border at least semi-seriously.

Illegal border crossings have plummeted 90% since Trump returned to White House, Border Patrol chief says:

The new US Border Patrol chief said the number of illegal migrants stopped trying to cross the besieged southern border has dropped an astonishing 90% since January 21 — a day after President Trump’s inauguration.

Michael Banks, a longtime former border agent himself, touted the plunge in illegal crossings in an interview on Fox News’ “Fox and Friends” Thursday, adding that prosecutions of criminal migrants the agency has apprehended have also jumped 52%.

“US Border Patrol knows how to get the job done, we know how to secure the border. All we needed was a president that was going to empower us — a strong leader like President Trump — and a secretary like Secretary Noem that knows exactly what we need to do to secure the border,” he said.

Banks did not provide the exact figures on illegal border crossings or clarify what time period he was comparing the drop to, however, figures released Thursday by the Texas Department of Public Safety show that crossings into the Lone Star state have slowed to a relative trickle.

On Feb. 5, just 396 illegal migrants were encountered across the once-bustling El Paso, Rio Grande Valley, Laredo, Del Rio and Big Bend sections of the southwest border.

Del Rio alone was seeing thousands of illegal crossings per day under the Biden administration, including a spike in September, 2021, when more than 14,000 Haitian migrants appeared at the border over a matter of days.

Meanwhile, figures obtained by The Post show that the number of migrants in US Customs and Border Patrol custody has plummeted by more than 500% since the summer.

The agency currently has approximately 1,500 illegal immigrants in its custody — a drop in the bucket compared to June when over 10,000 migrants were locked up. —>READ MORE HERE
