| | | ITEM 5: Pamela Geller reported, "There are a lot of statistics Mark A. Morgan, acting U.S. Customs and Border Protection commissioner, uses to show how Trump policies have helped to cut illegal immigration into the United States.
"But there are two that he feels really make clear the victory his agency has had in the past year, and he highlighted them in a small meeting Tuesday.
"First is daily apprehensions, a number that hit 4,600 at the height of the latest crisis in May. That has now dropped to 1,300.
"What's more, he said, the 21-daily average is below 1,000, a 78% cut. 'That's a dramatic reduction,' he said, in updating the numbers released last week.
"Then there are the numbers of illegal immigrants in custody. That was a horrific 20,000 in May for an agency that has just 4,000 beds.
"Now a quarter of those beds are unused."
Instead of Abolish ICE, let us make it unnecessary. May our border patrol become the Maytag Repairman, sitting around playing UNO. |
