Roughly nine million inadmissible migrants will be admitted into the country at the southern border by late January when President-elect Donald Trump is inaugurated.
According to data recently released by the Office of Homeland Security, about 10.5 million illegal migrants were registered at the southern border from January 2021 to June 2024. Only 2.5 million of those migrants have been blocked under the Title 42 epidemic rules, which were also lifted back in 2023. Another 1.9 million were "removed" or "returned" home.
President Joe Biden’s DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas then allowed almost 5.9 million migrants to be released into the United States. Around 2.2 million additional migrants got past the border wall, which has essentially been left open under the Biden-Harris administration. Tack on about 400,000 more who were allowed through the border from July to October of this year.
If the rates stay where they are as of now until Trump’s Inauguration Day, January 20, 2025, almost nine million inadmissible migrants will be admitted by the Biden-Harris administration.
President-elect Donald Trump has promised to close the border on day one of taking office and follow through with the largest mass deportation of illegal criminal aliens in U.S. history.
