A large group of migrants, most of whom are Chinese men, were caught illegally crossing through the US southern border in Jacumba Hot Springs, California.
News Nation’s Jorge Ventura shared video showing 168 Chinese men standing in a line with backpacks and suitcases, some of whom were talking to US law enforcement. Also among them were Chinese women as well as people of other nationalities.
“This is not normal. Our country is being invaded. We cannot afford to take half measures or make excuses on this issue. We must stop the invasion, take the fight to the cartels, and finally build the border wall, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said. He further said that should he be elected president, he will “get it done.”
Also reacting to the clip was Don Huffines, a former Texas gubernatorial candidate who previously had attempted to challenge the incumbency of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R).
“@GregAbbott_TX MUST secure the border and deport ALL of the illegals ASAP!” Huffines wrote on X, along with a note that Texas is the last border state to be controlled by a Republican governor.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham commented that the migrants will “be ready and in place for the next Cultural Revolution.”
This discovery of Chinese nationals illegally entering the country comes as the US struggles to stop the historic surge of illegal immigrants since Joe Biden first assumed the White House.
Total encounters for enforcement officials were tallied at 3,201,144 for FY 2023. These encounters have continued to surge upwards since 2020, with 646,822 total encounters in 2020, 1,956,519 a year later, and 2,766,582 two years later.
Meanwhile, apprehensions of people who are on the terrorist watch list have nearly doubled since last year’s record total, with CBP data revealing in October that 172 non-citizens who were on the terrorist watchlist were apprehended at the border in FY 2023, marking an increase from 2022’s record year of 98.
