The number of unaccompanied alien children (UACs) illegally crossing the U.S. border “has increased sharply” since 2011, with a surge of more than 1,200 percent just between 2011 and 2014, according to the Congressional Research Service. The agency also disclosed that the flow has increasing significantly in the first five months of fiscal 2016.
The illegal immigration of these children hit record-breaking numbers in 2014, with U.S. officials apprehending more than 52,000 alien children. Nearly 20,000 have been apprehended in the first five months of 2016, setting the stage for another potentially record-breaking year.
The term "children" is itself a misnomer. A lot of this is actually gang related. And keeping the border open is only making matters worse.
But again, this benefits Obama and his radical political movement which is looking to drastically transform the country while tearing down anything resembling the rule of law.
