from mexico, there is not one known case of a terrorist entering us territory from mexico. these are more donald trump untruths. no, i mean we could spend all day long if you want to go down the rabbit hole of how many politicians flip—flop, so i think that that is politics as usual. however, i am from texas and i completely disagree. this is a national border, national security crisis, as well as an humanitarian crisis. yes, people in 2016 — yes, there were slightly fewer crossings, but it spiked again at the end of 2018, and what we've seen are 60,000 people coming across the border a month. these are cb — border patrol statistics, not white house statistics. with respect, the numbers... now, what... wait, wait... the numbers, the numbers... 60,000. they're not even half what they were in the late 90s and early 2000s, so how can you... but what has changed, stephen, what has changed, stephen, is the composite of the illegal immigrants coming across. first of all, it used to be individual males. now they are families, including unaccompanied children, and many make t
