The number of border crossings have dropped so much under Trump that federal agents now outnumber illegal crossers. The El Paso sector, which saw a peak of 1,800 encounters per day back in 2023, now sees fewer than 100. Across the entire southern border, the number has dropped to an average of just 359 illegal migrants a day. Compare that to the 2024 average of nearly 3,000

President's doing a great job, and I want to say this. Look, I worked for six presidents. I think President Trump's the greatest president in my lifetime. He proves it every day. Every day he proves to me why he is the greatest president in my lifetime. Border numbers are down over 90% in three weeks. - Think about that. - I worked hard at it. Kristy Noland's working hard at it. The chief of patrol is working hard at it. But it was President Trump's executive orders that was a game changer, right? And we already got almost 16,000 people we arrested and carried. That's three times more than Joe Biden had a year from now. But it's not enough. We got to do more. But President Trump's leadership, when he got 90% less people coming across the border, how many women aren't being raped by the cartels? How many women children aren't being sex-trapped in this country? President Trump's a game changer. And every day, I'll say it 100 times, every day he proves to me why he's the greatest president in my lifetime, what he's done.

So let's just look at it historically though, the numbers and what that means. Over a thousand illegal entries a day takes away the border patrol's ability to proactively patrol the border. They literally over a thousand, they go into a response mode and they're just dealing what's coming across. The reality of that is it gives the cartels complete control of what's crossing the border because they control the crossings to include that second wave. The Biden administration understands and knows this. I've briefed many of the people in the administration several times. And then now, even when we're talking about thresholds, they're more than doubling that to trigger this new authority, but they shut off the authority at 1500 is what I've heard. So that ensures that the cartels still maintain control. This is all political theater. It's not going to change anything on the border. So once they hit the 2,500 person threshold, it's not like they put a big sign up to say the border's closed. Try again tomorrow, people are going to continue to come across the border and they'll continue to go to the border patrol and they'll be apprehended and they'll get into the system and maybe their asylum claims might not be valid because we're above the 2,500 threshold. But it's not like you can send them back because a lot of these people are coming in from places like Mauritania. We had Bill Molygian talking to people who are coming in from Nepal, China, Pakistan, India, you can't hold them. There aren't the facilities to do it. So does the Biden administration have any other choice than to maybe they don't go into the asylum claim processing system, but can they do anything else other than parole them into the United States? There's a lot of things they could do. The Biden administration created this border crisis with the stroke of a pin by shutting down the Remain in Mexico program and shutting down the asylum cooperative agreements we're building out with a host of other nations. They could turn that back on, but you, you hit the nail on the head. As long as people get released into the United States, the flow will continue. And this mediocre response is not going to send the message that we need to actually get control of the border again. We literally need to stop this massive flow. It's like stopping the flow of a river, if you will. But you got to stop the flow before you can clean up the flood. So there's really my understanding is Mexico has not agreed to take these people back. So they are still going to have to go through the regular system, even if expedited. Yeah, and with current law, we can't return people from Nepal to Mexico because the no Remain in Mexico agreement. So they'd have to be returned to Nepal. And how long does it take to do that? There's one other really curious aspect to all of this. Even when you hit the threshold, according to our bill of illusion, you can still apply through the CBP one app. Is this just some grand plan to push people to that app? So I think the grand plan has been to allow as many people into the country as possible while still getting reelected. The only reason that they're announcing this executive of action now, in my opinion, is to try to sound tough on the border. But when you look at the numbers, it doesn't really mean anything. And I'm glad you highlighted this. They're bringing in another 1,000 to 1,500 a day through the CBP one app. So we're basically locking in now over two million illegal entries a year between these two processes, assuming this new executive action authority is actually implemented. We simply just we can't sustain this. And remember, vetting is against U.S. databases, not against some made up global database. So we really still have no idea who we're allowing into this country. I mean, when you.

And what really makes me sick about everything is when you hear people say, "Well, illegal immigrants don't commit as many crimes as what United States citizens do." That is a red herring. It doesn't matter. Those individuals shouldn't be here anyway. And when you look at President Trump's policies and you recognize that he was able to keep crime out of this country, when he was able to keep people like Lake and Riley alive, when he was able to keep people that are poisoning from fentanyl from dying, when he was able to keep those people from dying, you have to recognize that the policies actually worked. And when you look at everything that we're facing right now, everything is strictly based upon the policies that this administration has put in place. When you bring back catch and release, you are inviting people to cross our borders illegally. And that's exactly what he's done. He is rewarding people for violating our laws. And as long as you do that, they're going to continue to come.

We created the strongest border in U.S. history, you know that, right? Built nearly 500 miles. We got Mexico to give us free of charge, 28,000. So, you know, when these characters say, "Oh, Mexico." When I say, "Mexico will pay for the wall," they did. Much more so than the wall. They gave us 28,000 soldiers for free. That's why we had the safest border in the history of our country. We had 28,000 soldiers while I was building the wall. Then we were adding that other 200 miles. We would have done it. We would have had that done within three weeks. All we had to do was install the panels. They were all built. Those are the ones you see sitting all over the ground. It's horrible. When I look at that, when I look at all of those things that we did, and then I just see the destruction that this -- there's never been a president in the history of our country that's done a job so poorly, that's been so incompetent, so corrupt. There's never been anything like it. And I say, oftentimes, I'll say, you'll hear me say, "You could take the five worst presidents in the history of our country, and they will have not -- you can add them up, and they will not have done the damage that Crooked Joe Biden has done." And I mean that 100 percent. And now I could add it. I think I could probably say, "Take the 10 worst presidents." He's a horrible president.
