Illegal border crossings surpass 12.5 million since Biden-Harris took office, most in U.S. history | 17 Aug 2924 | U.S. Customs and Border Protection released monthly border apprehension data on Friday, saying, "statistics show lowest southwest border encounters in nearly four years." CBP also claimed illegal border crossings were down by 34% from June to July and the drop is due to a presidential proclamation issued in June... Despite these claims, the total number of apprehended illegal border crossers surpassed 10.5 million in July with two months left in the fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30. That number excludes 2 million gotaways, those who illegally entered and evaded capture, bringing the total number to more than 12.5 million.
