“under President Biden's leadership, the United States has shattered virtually every record in the book when it comes to uncontrolled illegal migration flows across the border. We have seen new records in border crossings in a single month, a single year, and in a single day, all on President Biden's watch. The busiest day on record came 2 months ago, just before title 42, the public health title that was imposed as a result of the pandemic-- the busiest day came just 2 months ago, just before that title was lifted or expired, when Border Patrol apprehended 10,300 migrants a day. The pace of migration exceeded anything we have ever experienced under previous Presidents, and of course law enforcement, not knowing exactly what would happen once title 42 expired, braced for the worst. Federal officials and immigration experts predicted an increase in border crossings when it was lifted. At one point, even the President's Department of Homeland Security said we could expect up to 18,000 migrants a day. Just to remind you, at its height, it was 10,300, but even President Biden's Department of Homeland Security said that could go to 18,000 now that title 42 went away. It is not as if the President and Homeland Security don't have the tools necessary to control illegal immigration, but they simply lack the will to do so. Fortunately, that surge that could have happened didn't happen, and we are left with a lot of opinions and guesses as to why that is true.…”
