Illegal Immigration Under Trump On Track to Hit Highest Level in a Decade
Illegal Immigration Under Trump On Track to Hit Highest Level in a Decade
28 CBP/news release 26 Nov 2018522
3:12
Illegal immigration at the United States-Mexico border is expected to hit the highest level in a decade next year, as border-crossings surged to record levels last month.
Last month, illegal immigration at the southern border soared to the highest level for a single month since April 2014, marking the most southwest border crossings since President Trump was elected in 2016 on a platform to reduce immigration to the country.
The record illegal immigration outpaced projections from Princeton Researcher Steven Kopits, who expected about 31,575 border crossings last month. The actual border crossings exceeded those expectations by almost 40 percent.
The southwest border numbers, according to Kopits’ research, indicate that Fiscal Year 2019 will see the highest level of illegal immigration at the southern border in more than a decade.
In total, Kopits projects that there will be more than 600,000 border crossings next year — a level of illegal immigration that the country has not seen since Fiscal Year 2008 when total southwest border apprehensions exceeded 705,000.
(Princeton Policy Research)
October 2018 saw nearly 51,000 illegal aliens apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border with family unit crossings almost doubling what they were in October 2016, under President Obama. More than 23,000 family units crossed the southern border last month, compared to about 13,100 crossing in October 2016.
Last month’s illegal immigration totals at the southern border were so high that not since 2007 has the country seen this much illegal immigration in October. In October 2007, there were about 51,300 southwest border crossers.
The October 2018, illegal immigration levels are almost exactly double what southwest border crossings were this same month last year, when 25,488 apprehensions occurred.
Despite claims by the Trump administration that they have effectively curbed illegal immigration, southwest border crossings are back at Obama-era levels.
In Fiscal Year 2018, the country saw nearly 400,000 southwest border apprehensions. This is similar to the illegal immigration levels that occurred under Obama, where there were about 331,000 southwest border apprehensions in Fiscal Year 2015 and about 356,000 in Fiscal Year 2012.
Mass illegal immigration to the country under Trump has kept wage growth slow and minuscule across the board, though particular blue-collar sectors of the economy have seen higher wages for American workers as the labor market tightens.
At the same time, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and Trump have failed to secure significant funds for a border wall and infrastructure at the southern border for the second consecutive year thus far. In August, Trump signed a massive $716 billion military budget — a boon for Defense Department contractors — that did not include a penny for his border wall.
DHS has been left to deal with surging illegal immigration by reinforcing border fences with razor wire, far from the “big beautiful wall” to which the president has consistently referred, and through help from the U.S. military.

Based on these numbers, nothing works. Border Patrol doesn't work. Military on the border as support to Border Patrol doesn't work. Executive Orders blocked by the courts don't work. Requests for funding to secure the border don't work. Requests to change the laws and fix the loopholes don't work. Tweaks and twacks don't work. Nothing works.
We need a different plan. Maybe Trump will come up with one. I sure hope so.A Nation Without Borders Is Not A Nation - Ronald Reagan

Trump wanted to stop it, but I agree I don't think Mattis did (Trump let it out of the bag that he thinks Mattis is a Democrat, that's code for open borders). I don't even think our Troops did. Border Patrol definitely doesn't want to stop it. Nothing traditional is working, so we need a different plan. I hope Trump can come up with one that doesn't need Border Patrol, Military, Justice Department, Congress or the Courts. It's a long shot, but that's all we've got.

I'm confused--maybe I just missed something. It sounds like they are talking about apprehensions. There's a difference between apprehensions and actual successful illegal crossings that were not apprehended. So which are we talking about here? Are they estimating crossings based on apprehensions? That doesn't sound very accurate. Are they using apprehensions interchangeably with crossings? That just sounds wrong.

October 2018 saw nearly 51,000 illegal aliens apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border ----
fairly certain that is just the number of apprehensions, and who knows how many came through without being caught or walking up to BP.I am not surprised the number is that high, with reports of ----Border Patrol agents arrest 1,900 immigrants over the weekend in the RGV
