BREAKING: In a federal court filing obtained by @FoxNews, DHS reports 153,941 migrant encounters in January, almost doubling Jan. ‘21 (78,414) and more than quadruple Jan. ‘20 (36,585).
DHS also reports 62,573 migrants were released into U.S. just last month alone. @FoxNews pic.twitter.com/RiEPKVsQi3— Bill Melugin (@BillFOXLA) February 16, 2022
DHS still has not publicly released the January numbers, even though we are halfway through February, and according to their court filing, they already know the numbers.
January is typically one of the slowest months at the border.
FY’22 continues to smash FY’21 number. @FoxNews— Bill Melugin (@BillFOXLA) February 16, 2022

Harris on the job…
I’m in Munich, Germany to lead the U.S. delegation at the Munich Security Conference. Tomorrow I will join other world leaders to underscore our commitments to our allies and partners, and demonstrate our unity in the face of Russian aggression on Ukraine’s borders.
