More Illegals Encountered Since Oct. Than Two States’ Populations

U.S. Customs and Border Protection has encountered more illegal aliens just since October amidst Biden’s border crisis than the whole population of two different American states. This illegal invasion is dangerous and unsustainable.

Democrats love to talk about how these migrants just want a better life and how inhumane it is to keep them out, but they never discuss how much of a burden it is upon Americans. Not only is illegal immigration draining our resources, it is changing our demographics. But then again, the Democrats want that, because they figure it means more votes for them.

From Fox News, Feb. 7:

U.S. Customs and Border Protection has tracked over 1 million migrant encounters since Oct. 1st, when fiscal year 2024 began, a CBP source told Fox News Digital on Wednesday, the earliest this mark has ever been reached.

The number is roughly 100,000 encounters higher than the same period last year, when the U.S. saw 908,000 encounters. This is the earliest the U.S. has ever reached the 1 million encounter mark, according to the CBP source.

As of last month, more than 85% of illegals were released into the United States. These numbers are starting to exceed whole states’ populations.

As of 2023, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, the estimated population of the state of South Dakota was 919,318 people. Meanwhile, the estimated 2023 population of the state of Rhode Island was 1,095,962 people. So the number of illegal aliens encountered by CBP this fiscal year to date — most of whom will be released into the United States — was around or potentially above the size of Rhode Island's population and greater than South Dakota’s population. That should worry you.

Some people might point out that these illegals are mostly going to states and cities with bigger populations, although they are being spread across the entire country. But they still leave a major mark, as New York and Chicago are discovering with the unsustainable floods of illegals coming to their densely populated sanctuary cities. My home city of Tucson, Arizona, in an area that’s a hotspot of the current border crisis, had an estimated 546,574 residents as of mid-2022, per the Census Bureau. How many migrants can we take before the city is radically changed? I can assure you that crime is a growing problem over the past few years as more and more migrants come in.

Fox News noted that the fastest growing group of illegal aliens is Chinese, among whom are almost certainly Chinese Communist Party plants. Huge numbers of barely vetted illegals, including potential terrorists, criminals, and foreign agents, continue to pour into America on a daily basis. Unless this is stopped soon, it will be too late to stop the radical transformation of America.
