Honestly it would help if news and govt stats made it easy to find the number of "illegals" who sneak across border coyote style and find them yrs later working some where and they can be subject to removal, can't get green card without leaving and coming back later properly (w/inspection). Contrast
Contrast the sneakers w/ huge amount of people properly lining up at border crossing/using that deleted customs app to get court dates and put in immigration processing system. TX wasn't flying "illegals" to Chicago/CA/D.C? TX was flying those who entered w inspection to those other cities🤷🏾♀️
If you're curious about the border situation, an excellent introduction is Corey McWilliams's North from Mexico, now in its third edition. You should be able to get a PDF from Anna's Archive or Library Genesis.
