NO CRISIS? Border Patrol Reports Apprehensions In Rio Grande Valley Have Already Surpassed All Of 2018

Border apprehensions of illegal aliens entering the United States in the Rio Grande Valley sector has already surpassed 2018’s year-end total, the U.S. Border Patrol says.

In the first seven months of the fiscal year, which begins Oct. 1, more than 164,000 migrants have been apprehended or turned themselves in and applied for asylum in the sector, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Agents in the sector made 162,262 apprehensions in all of the fiscal 2018 year.

“The increase is the result of an ongoing surge of migrants, most of them from Central America, who are crossing the border to seek asylum,” the Texas Tribune reports. “The 2019 total for the Rio Grande Valley includes 15,310 unaccompanied minors apprehended from October through March — compared to 23,760 during the entire 2018 fiscal year — and 79,000 people who were traveling in families during the same time frame, which has already surpassed the 63,280 family members apprehended in 2018 (April figures were not immediately available).”

Fishrrman:
"The great northward rush" is on.

That is, if you want to get to America, you'd better do it before they close the border and build the barrier.

What this means is that UNTIL those steps are taken, we're going to see ever-increasing numbers of Central/South Americans pushing northward to "get here while they still can".

Thousands.
Tens of thousands.
Hundreds of thousands.
Millions.
