President Trumps top immigration spokesman on Wednesday said that there are potentially 22 million illegal immigrants inside the United States, nearly twice the estimate regularly cited.
Ken Cuccinelli, the acting director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which handles the legal immigration process, said the number comes from a study done by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. That study put the number at 22.1 million.
The number typically cited is 11 million to 13 million illegal immigrants in the country. The latest estimate, from the Federation for American Immigration Reform, is 14 million. An accurate count is difficult to calculate.

I didn't know you were even alive 25 million years ago.
yea it was 11 million something like 20 years ago.
Funny how that number never changed..
I'll see your 33 million and raise to 44 million.
Whatever the number, its much higher than the government wants to admit. We won't know the true number until they're all identified, either by national ID/biometrics, or by (God forbid!) total amnesty and grant of citzenship (that would bring them out of the shadows).
I have always figured it was around 20 million. Surprise,surprise,surprise!
I understand your grammatical concerns. However, the context to the conversation is the number of illegal immigrants now residing in the United States. So, if you had ever read my extensive posts on illegal immigration you would know that when I wrote "I told you 25 million YEARS ago." with emphasis on YEARS you would inflect properly and understand the meaning of the sentence. Since yours is the only post impugning my sentence structure, it is of little concern. Thanks for letting me know that there might be a misunderstanding.
I have posted many times, many years ago, that the number of illegal immigrants in this nation tops 25 million and was at THAT time probably 30 million. Have a good day.
Actually, the Biblical consequence for legal child sacrifice on the national level is invasion and eventual conquest. Reprieve is possible with overturning the rule/law but...
“Surely at the command (mouth) of the LORD it came upon Judah, to remove them from His sight because of the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done, and also for the innocent blood which he shed, for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; AND THE LORD WOULD NOT FORGIVE.” [All caps mine]
2 Kings 24: 3 - 4.
I lean in that direction. We’re looking at 30-40 million > IMO.
