Illegal immigration down 98% with no extra money spent to enforce the border.

Here we go again.  Liberals again claim that Trump policies don't and won't work...yet they are.  Border patrol is no longer spending 98% of their time processing illegals, and instead spending their time monitoring the border.

Anybody who is "processed" at the border isn't an "illegal"! That person is entering LEGALLY!

God, you're an idiot!

Never said that.

Actually, they are spending all of their time on snipe hunts that have failed to produce anywhere near the number of  criminal "illegals" to deport that Trump promised. And the processing time just went up because Doge fired a bunch of immigration judges despite a dire shortage.

Around 11,000 undocumented migrants have been arrested under the Trump administration in major cities around the United States, “border czar” Tom Homan told reporters on Feb 6th Thursday. 

Authorities raided the notorious migrant development of Colony Ridge just north of Houston on Monday, rounding up 118 illegal migrants — including accused killers and kiddie-sex offenders.

It doesn't help that people are leaking info on the raids and these are criminals, so they are not standing on the corner waiting to be arrested.

a) provided cheap labor, particularly in jobs Americans don't want to do

THEY ARE NOT WORKING.  IN NYC THEY ARE LIVING IN HOTELS AND TENTS.  NOW THAT NYC LOST THEIR FUNDING DID THEY START GETTING MOVED OUT

 b) paid taxes (look it up yourself, how much THEM ILLEGULS put into Social Security alone every year)

THEY CAN'T PAY TAXES IF THEY ARE NOT WORKING.  TREN DE ARGUA, MS 13 AND OTHERS ARE NOT PAYING TAXESAS WELL AS THE DRUG SMUGGLERS & HUMAN TRAFFICERS

 c) been customers of businesses (they eat; they consume services; etc.)

THEY TAKE THEIR MONEY THEY GOT FROM THE GOVT AND BUY A FEW THINGS.  NO NET GAIN TO THE ECONOMY

 d) and some have received permission to stay long-term and will contribute to our society

NO THEY HAVEN'T.  THEY CAN BE DEPORTED 

Racist, bigot stupid Tom. To him, all immigrants are "illegals" and all "illegals" are unemployed, rapists, and murderers.

What a horrid little shit stupid Tom really is.
