From 2009 to 2014, around one million Mexicans packed their bags to return home, while in the same period 870,000 made the trek to the north, according to a recent study by the Pew Research Center.

They might as well go back there. A LOT of companies have moved there because they aren’t regulated and taxed out of existence in Mexico.

So many of the ones that recently came here were signed up for welfare. I doubt they’re leaving.

How does one keep accurate records of illegals? Do they tag them?

It’s refreshing for the media to come right out and admit that these criminals never sought to become Americans after all, but rather just wanted our money.

This is pure hogwash. How do they know how many are coming across our porous border? Until they know that they can’t say what this article contends. This is what the establishment wants us to believe.
