https://nypost.com/2023/12/06/news/1200 ... r-sources/The United States set a new record Tuesday with over 12,000 migrants crossing over the southern border into the country, sources told Fox News.
Over 10,200 of those were taken into custody by Customs and Border Protection after illegally crossing into the country between ports of entry, according to the network’s sources.
The total figure of migrants attempting to enter the US will be even higher when the number of people who reported to the Office of Field Operations for asylum appointments booked through the CBP One app, which allows up to 1,450 people a day to be seen.
As of Wednesday morning, the agency had more than 22,000 migrants in custody at various points across the border – pushing the already strained border resources to breaking point.

As a country, we're being remarkably foolish if we continue to make excuses for this and/or dismiss the numbers.
