“At this point, there is no question that this administration is actively facilitating illegal immigration. The numbers speak for themselves.”

On Thursday, billionaire Elon Musk accused the Biden administration of actively facilitating illegal immigration in the United States. This after recently released data revealed shocking monthly numbers of illegal entries at the US-Southern border since President Biden took over the White House, got rid of strict Trump-era border policies, and created a wide-open border.
"At this point, there is no question that this administration is actively facilitating illegal immigration. The numbers speak for themselves," Musk wrote on X.

View on XData recently released by CBP shows that there has been more than 2 million illegal crossings within the past year, with more than 6 million encounters since Joe Biden became president in 2021. This is significantly higher than any administration ever to hold office.
However, this data does not include the most recent months which consisted of record-breaking illegal entries. In December, Border Patrol agents recorded over 300,000 encounters with illegal migrants, smashing the previous monthly record of 269,735, which was set in September.
