House Republicans release ‘Biden’s border crisis by the numbers’
President Joe Biden merely mentioned security when he briefly passed over immigration and our southern border during his State of the Union Address. “If we are to advance liberty and justice, we need to secure the Border and fix the immigration system. We can do both.”
The House Republican website, GOP.gov, wrote “Border security is national security, and under President Biden, we have neither.” Biden “failed to mention the historic order crisis that his administration created” in his SOTU address. Therefore, the House Republicans put together “Biden’s border crisis by the numbers.”
BIDEN’S BORDER CRISIS BY THE NUMBERS:
- According to new Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) data there were 153,941 migrant encounters at our southern border in January.
- That is a 96% increase from the previous year.
- This was the second worst January on record.
- Of the 153,941 illegal immigrants encountered at the border, the Biden administration released 62,573 into the United States.
- This new data comes at a time when ICE deportations are down 70%from 2020, the fewest number of deportations in 5 years.
- This equates to an average of just 100 deportations a day, even as border patrol agents encountered up to 7,000 illegal immigrants daily.
- Since Biden took office over 2 MILLION illegal immigrants have been apprehended at our southern border.
- In FY21, 11,201 pounds of fentanyl were seized by Customs and Border Protection, which is enough to kill every American nearly seven times over.
- Fentanyl border seizures increased by 134% in FY2021.
- In FY21, 11,201 pounds of fentanyl were seized by Customs and Border
- Now, the majority of America’s fentanyl that is flowing into our communities is being smuggled across the southern border from Mexico.
- Border officials have estimated that nearly 400,000 illegal immigrantshave escaped into the U.S. without being caught under Biden.
- Out of 104,171 migrants issued Notices to Report by ICE between the end of March and the end of August 2021, 47,705 failed to report within that time frame.
- There were 10,763 arrests of migrants with criminal convictions in FY 2021, up from 2,438 in FY 2020 and 4,269 in FY 2019.
IT’S SIMPLE: Instead of securing our southern border, Biden doubled down on his failed open-border policies.

BREAKING: Senate votes down both articles of impeachment against Mayorkas in party-line vote
The Senate voted down two articles of impeachment Wednesday which alleged Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas engaged in the “willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law” regarding the southern border in his capacity as DHS secretary. The second claimed Mayorkas had breached public trust.
What resulted in a party-line vote, began with Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., proposing a point of order declaring the first article unconstitutional, to which the majority of senators agreed following several failed motions by Republicans. The article was deemed unconstitutional by a vote of 51-48, with Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, voting present.
Fox News reports:
Schumer’s point of order was proposed after his request for unanimous consent, which would have provided a set amount of time for debate among the senators, as well as votes on two GOP resolutions and a set amount of agreed upon points of order, was objected to by Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo.
Schmitt stated in his objection that the Senate should conduct a full trial into the impeachment articles against Mayorkas, rather than the debate and points of order suggested by Schumer’s unanimous consent request, which would be followed by a likely successful motion to dismiss the articles.
Republican senators took issue with Schumer’s point of order, as agreeing to it would effectively kill the first of the two articles. Several GOP lawmakers proposed motions, which took precedence over the point of order, to adjourn or table the point, among other things. But all GOP motions failed.
After another batch of motions to avoid voting on Schumer’s second point of order, which would deem the second article unconstitutional, the Senate agreed to it. The vote was along party lines 51-49, with Murkowski rejoining the Republicans.

Anti American, treasonous and Biden and his minions should be in jail. His state of the union address was full of lies catering to his diminishing base…what a disgrace

And this is what you have governing this great country. Morons by the boatloads. They are not interested in what you think on what they think what is right for you. You have no say in any of this because they have failed to realize that WE THE PEOPLE, have control and it is up to us to put them in their place.
