In September alone, more than 200,000 illegal migrants crossed the U.S.-Mexico border mostly from Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela, a new one month high for President Joe Biden’s "disastrous" open border policy.
The U.S.
Customs and Border Protection said 227,547 illegal crossings were recorded
during the month, up 11.5% from the 204,087 recorded in August, according to The
Associated Press.
The
September crossing is 18.5% more than the 192,001 recorded in the same period
in 2021.
The figures
released Friday night for the month ending 30, September revealed 2,380,000
million crossings, a figure up 37% from the 1.73 million in the year 2021,
according to The Associated Press.
The figures indicated
that 78,000 illegal migrants from Nicaragua, Cuba and Venezuela were stopped in
September, a significant high from the 58,000 from Mexico and three countries of
northern Central America. The United States is currently unable to expel
migrants to Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela in part due to strained diplomatic
relations.
In March
2020 the Trump administration applied Title 41, a public healthcare rule
intended to halt the spread of COVID-19 by suspending application for asylum at
the U.S. border with Mexico.
The Biden administration
said it would admit up to 24,000 migrants from Venezuela on humanitarian
grounds if they apply online with a financial sponsor and enter the U.S.
through an airport.
The migrants
are not from South American alone as so many terrorism suspects mostly from the
Middle East are taking advantage of Biden’s open border policy to sneak into
the country through the border, most of who have been arrested.
