Might be easier to count the number of bedbugs and divide by 1000.....

I really meant to stress that they are everywhere.

“11 million” has been a bogus number for a long time. Just natural reproduction of “anchor babies”, which are STILL illegal aliens, regardless of their supposed political protection, plus some very poor record keeping or even semi-accurate estimates, just cannot keep up with the reality.

Add to the stream from Mexico, so many other nationalities that have filtered in through Mexico, and the inordinate number of visa overstays, some from parts of the world distinctly UNFRIENDLY to the US, and you have a large fifth-column invasion.

Only since January 2017 has there been much pushback on this flood of unknown and largely unwanted skulkers wandering in the shadows. We don’t have a handle on it even yet, but have been able to grapple only with small parts of it so far.

There are probably more Mexicans in our country than there are in Mexico.

Democrat’s voter base.

The number used in the 1990s was 12 milllion.

Demographically between the year 2000 and 2013, Mexico has had a depopulation of 18 million people

This does not count illegals for South and Central America , Asia, Africa or Islamic States.

There is probably an easy 30 million illegals in the country and almost certainly more than that

You're probably right and I'd be surprised if the figure was any less than 10% of the total US population.

This would help to account for why 20% of the US prison population are illegals.

You can walk into stores in California and be the only English speaker.

And the 22 million is just in California.

Or Asia, especially China. On the West Coast the Asian immigrant population seems to be growing about as fast as the Hispanic population.

I’d bet everything I own that it’s closer to 30 million.

It is AT LEAST 22 million and we’ve known this for years.

In 2014, the Border Patrol estimated AT LEAST 40 million ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS.

No doubt, it’s double that today.

You must be mistaken. Teddy Kennedy and Emmanuel Celler promised in 1965 that the culture of the US wouldn't change with their immigration act.

It has been "11 million" without any updates since before Jorge Boosh was president. That 11 million figure was a laughable open lie. No one with a brain believed that figure.

“We combined these data using a demographic model that follows a very simple logic,” Edward Kaplan, a co-author of the report, told Yale Insights. “The population today is equal to the initial population plus everyone who came in minus everyone who went out. It’s that simple.”

Captain Obvious has gotten a PhD.

The holding pattern at eleven million either assumed that no one was coming in (BS), the number leaving was equal to the number entering (funny, everyone at the border seems to be going norte), or we have a big pile of dead Mexicans somewhere around here.

Most previous estimates, based on the U.S. Census Bureau's annual American Community Survey (ACS), place the undocumented population at around 11 million people.

Even I avoided the ACS because it was too damn nosy. And they expected illegals to answer it?

Most immigration researchers have reported a plateau in growth of that population since 2007, spurred mainly by the decrease in Mexican illegal immigration to the United States.

A plateau in the growth? Interesting term. Matematically that means the first derivative has reached a constant peak, or the acceleration (second derivative) has reached 0. If you are going north at 65 mph you get farther and farther north every second even if your speed has reached a peak.

The Pew Research Center, which provides regular updates on immigration statistics -- based in part on ACS numbers -- estimated last year that the undocumented population dropped to 11.3 million from a high of 12.2 million.

Hundreds or thousands are sneaking south across the border every day? South? BS. BS. BS.
