A new analysis by Fox News reveals staggering statistics regarding illegal immigration across the southwest border during President Biden’s tenure. According to US Customs and Border Protection (CBP), nearly 7.3 million migrants have unlawfully crossed into the United States since Biden assumed office – a figure that exceeds the populations of 36 states.
CBP data indicates that in the current fiscal year, spanning from October to September, there have already been 961,537 border encounters. If this trend persists, fiscal year 2024 is projected to surpass last year’s record of 2,475,669 southwest border encounters.
The cumulative number of southwest land border encounters under the Biden administration now stands at 7,298,486.
When compared to the populations of even the largest US states, the 7.3 million figure represents a significant portion, equivalent to about 18.7% of California’s population, 23.9% of Texas, 32.3% of Florida, and more than half the size of Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Ohio combined.
If the illegal immigrants who entered the United States under President Biden were gathered to form a city, it would be the second-largest city in America, trailing only New York City.
These numbers do not even include an estimated additional 1.8 million known “gotaways” who evaded law enforcement, potentially making the total number of migrants crossing illegally even larger than the population of New York City.

“encounters” are NOT people. Sorry Fox news.
How are they getting into America???? trump built the wall and Mexico paid for it
Jackk:
Are you implying that encounters involve wildlife, weather events, but not necessarily people? Are you implying that one individual crossing the border illegally moight involve multiple “encounters” so the number is not reflective of the invasion? I suggest that there are also huge numbers of gotaways, so the number of illegals is far greater than the sheer number of encounters. Once again, you are defending the most destructive policies of the Biden administration. Admit it. He’s senile, controlled by the most extreme wackos the Dems offer, and fundamentally incompetent. Trump has his mishigoss, but I’ll take ten of him rather than one Biden.
And Biden removed it
So including the 62 million Hispanics currently here that’s 70 million.
Better start brushing up on your Spanish, people. Pretty soon you’ll need it just to get around town.
Republican senators worked for months with Democrat senators and came up with a plan that would dramatically help improve the border situation and reduce illegal immigrants. But, then Trump told the Republican senators to vote against the bill that they themselves created! Trump wants headlines like this one to help him win the election, so he doesn’t want things to get better. Funding for Israel was in that bill, so it failed too.
