Illegal Border Crossings Far Worse Than Obama Claims
 
Border Crisis: Illegal Crossings May Be Far Higher Than Official Numbers
Head of border patrol union says government has been 'lying to the American people'

A new Department of Homeland Security study revises and lowers the estimated success rate in stopping illegal immigrants crossing the southern border, but even that figure paints a misleading picture, according to the president of the union representing border patrol officers.

The Associated Press said last week that the report, which has not yet been made public, estimates that 54 percent of the roughly 315,000 people trying to cross the border in fiscal year 2015 succeeded. That is significantly worse than the 81 percent success rate in stopping illegal border crossings that the government officially claims.

“Being an agent, myself, I know those numbers just aren’t true … It’s just disappointing that they’ve been lying to the American people for so long.”

There are 100 million of them here if you count the anchor babies too.

Believe nothing that comes from the government.
