Newly-uncovered information reveals that the rate of illegal aliens who evaded capture by the Border Patrol has spiked under Joe Biden compared to the rates under his predecessors.
According to Fox News, the Border Patrol data revealed via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request back in October shows that there were over 1.4 million “gotaways” between Fiscal Year 2010 and Fiscal Year 2020, with the lowest being 86,226 in 2011 and the highest being 171,663 in 2013.
There were 136,808 gotaways in Fiscal Year 2020, the final year of President Donald Trump’s first term. The number then skyrocketed in Fiscal Year 2021 to 387,398, before rising even higher to 606,131 in 2022 and 670,674 in 2023. Thus, there was a total of approximately 1.6 million gotaways between Fiscal Years 2021 and 2023 alone, higher than the number over the course of the entire previous decade.
Sources within Customs and Border Protection (CBP) say that there have already been at least 175,000 gotaways in Fiscal Year 2024.
