U.S. IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT AND BORDER SECURITY
U.S. President Donald Trump claimed his administration initiated the most extensive border and immigration crackdown in history during a speech to Congress. He stated that 21 million immigrants entered the U.S. illegally during Biden’s presidency, labeling many as dangerous criminals.
According to U.S. Border Patrol statistics, around 7 million migrants were arrested for illegal crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border during that time, including repeat offenders.
