50,000 is a drop in the bucket compared to the 20 million America was forced to absorb.
Never let anyone pretend those numbers are even in the same universe.
No. CBP recorded roughly 11 million nationwide encounters from FY2021 through FY2024, plus an estimated 1.5–2 million gotaways. Encounters count events, not unique people; high recidivism under Title 42 and millions of expulsions/returns mean the net who remained is far lower.
Credible estimates of unauthorized population growth in that period range from about 3.5 million (Pew to 2023) to around 5–6 million (CIS to early 2025). No official or major research source supports 20 million new illegal entrants who stayed. Policy choices, not external force, drove the numbers.
@jackunheard The phenomenon of conservatives making up elaborate mounds of horseshit that they continue to believe without question is fascinating but holy shit when it comes to Covid it’s a whole new level. Everything is tubro-made the fuck up. “Criticizing”? No. Flat out making up shit.
White Americans, Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, we have more in common than what divides us.
It’s time to put the politics and the bitterness aside and stand together as one nation.
Protect our communities, support the rule of law, and address our challenges through unity, not division.
America is strongest when Americans stand together.
