Joe Biden has set a new presidential record by allowing a staggering total of 2,475,669 encounters with illegal immigrants in the fiscal year of 2023.
In September, the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol reported the highest number of monthly illegal migrant encounters ever recorded at the southern border.
There are over 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. This population would rank among the top U.S. states in terms of population. (Trending: CNN Poll Is Bad News For Biden)
A total of 269,735 encounters were documented, surpassing the numbers from August and July. (Poll: Will Joe Biden’s Border Crisis Be WORSE in 2024? VOTE)
In response to these high rates, CBP has increased resources and personnel and is working with domestic and foreign partners to address the migration situation.
“In response to high rates of encounters across the southwest border in September, CBP surged resources and personnel,” CBP official Troy Miller said.
“We are continually engaging with domestic and foreign partners to address historic hemispheric migration, including large migrant groups traveling on freight trains, and to enforce consequences including by preparing for direct repatriations to Venezuela.”

Under Trump, Americans saw the lowest rate of illegal immigration in over 40 years.
Under Biden, we have seen the highest rate of illegal immigration over 60 years.
General Michael Flynn, who has personally witnessed the problem, describes the situation under Biden as a “mass invasion” that is “out of control.”
Biden notoriously ended Trump’s “remain in Mexico” policy, which forced foreign nationals seeking to enter the U.S. through the southern border — illegally or without proper documentation — to be returned to Mexico.
These individuals needed to wait in Mexico while their legal cases are adjudicated. This border security program under Trump and kept migrants in Mexico as they awaited their hearings.
Biden, on the other hand, opened the floodgates and created a disaster by removing this policy. This signaled that everyone can come through the border even if it’s illegally and without proper documentation.
Biden and the Democrats have falsely claimed President Trump was “racist” and “xenophobic” for his “remain in Mexico” policy.
Under Trump, an estimated 68,000 migrants were returned to Mexico under the policy, according to the Department of Homeland Security. These individuals will need to wait in Mexico while their legal cases are adjudicated.
Biden, on the other hand, allows migrant asylum seekers into the U.S. prior to court hearings, which many Republicans have opposed. The Democrat’s strategy of allowing migrants into the U.S. gives them the opportunity to disappear before their court hearings.
As a result, the White House confirmed that some illegal immigrants have received free cell phones so that they can be contacted and “checked on” in hopes that they don’t disappear within the U.S. before their court hearing.
