Chinese illegal immigration on pace to break records at US southern border
21st February 2024
A dramatic increase in Chinese illegal immigration is on track to break records at the southern border, with apprehensions from the communist country in one sector alone already eclipsing fiscal 2021 in just a few days.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) sources tell Fox News that between Saturday and Monday there were 452 Chinese nationals apprehended by Border Patrol in the San Diego Sector alone.
That’s more than the 450 apprehended in fiscal 2021 altogether across the entire southwest border.
The number of Chinese nationals has been increasing since fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2022, numbers increased to more than 2,000 border-wide. In fiscal 2023, that number then surged to more than 24,314.
John Derbyshire used to say that there wasn’t anything wrong with New York City that the addition of a million ethnic Chinese wouldn’t fix. (“Turn NYC into Singapore? We can’t have that!”)
