More than 1 million illegal crossings of the US-Mexico border will have been attempted over the first seven months of 2021, preliminary data indicates — proving yet another one of former President Trump’s predictions of a massive surge in illegal immigration should Biden enter the White House.
While US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have yet to release the official number of border encounters that took place last month, The Washington Examiner reported calculations estimating the total at 188,000, an increase of just over 4 percent from the 180,034 apprehended in May.
Should this number be confirmed, it would be the most border crossings of any June in at least 21 years.
