Controversy swirls as President Biden’s remarks attributing the surge in illegal immigration to Donald Trump’s policies draw conservative backlash. Despite Biden’s stance, public opinion has shifted, with many Americans now pointing fingers at his administration for the escalating crisis. Democrat-led cities come under scrutiny for their perceived openness to illegal immigrants, contrasting starkly with GOP-leaning areas.
According to Fox News, under President Biden’s tenure, nearly 7.3 million migrants have illegally crossed the southwest border, surpassing the population of 36 individual states, as per a Fox News analysis. US Customs and Border Protection reported 961,537 border encounters in the current fiscal year, potentially exceeding last year’s record.
Meanwhile, since Biden took office, 7,298,486 southwest land border encounters have been recorded. This figure is more than the population of 36 US states. Critics attribute this surge to Biden’s lenient policies, accusing the administration of aiding illegal crossings.
Despite DHS not commenting, organizations like Numbers USA and FAIR argue that lax enforcement and incentives contribute to the crisis, allowing migrants to exploit the system without fear of repercussions.
