Not true at all. Official reporting doesn't COUNT "got-aways" or illegal crossing NOT encountered. But they DO estimate it -- and the most conservative estimates lately is that its AT LEAST 50% of the "recorded encounters". So the Title 42 (covid) and asylum instant rejections MAY be half of the ENCOUNTERS -- but they are WIPED OUT by the got-aways. Whom the CARTELS are INCREASINGLY running people at ONE spot and releasing the "bad guys" and drug mules at another.
And since Title 42 rejection are MORE THAN 1/2 of the instant rejections -- when it goes away NEXT MONTH -- we are gonna see MORE than 50% increase in "catch and release". And there will be NO TIME to even ESTIMATE the other 150,000 got-aways per month anymore. The border will be TOTALLY overrun and CARTELS will be more in charge and profiting.
Check out the BEGINNING of 2022 in the top right thru Jan. Imagine where that's gonna go when Title 42 GOES AWAY next month. The nasty progressive left WANTS THIS. You had EVERY Dem prez candidate raise their hands in SUPPORT OF OPEN BORDERS in the 1st couple debates.
DO NOT DENY -- that IS the plan.
